User reviews
Users appreciate the add-on's ability to bulk download multiple files efficiently, especially PDFs and ringtones, and find the UI generally workable after adjustments. However, common issues include inability to set or change download folders flexibly, a popup UI that's either too small or demands excessive space, problems handling files with non-English or special characters, occasional crashes with duplicate filenames, and limited functionality on many media streaming sites.
