Free Download Manager

What Free Download Manager is

Free Download Manager (FDM) is a free download accelerator and organizer for Windows, macOS, Linux and Android. It speeds transfers by dividing files into sections and downloading those sections at the same time, and interrupted downloads can resume from where they stopped. FDM also supports BitTorrent. Its scheduler can start or pause downloads, launch applications, and connect or disconnect from the internet at set times. Traffic modes let users manage internet use while browsing and downloading. FDM can preview audio and video before a download finishes and convert file formats afterward. Official Chrome and Firefox extensions provide browser integration, while the Elephant add-on adds video downloading support from various sites. When FDM is installed on both devices, an Android device can create downloads on a remote PC or Mac. The plan is free, with no ads and optional donations. FDM's privacy information says it does not track in-app activity or collect or share personal data, while its privacy policy also describes collecting profile information, network settings and user-provided cookies, and using Flurry Analytics for interaction data it says is not personally identifiable.
