About Super Download - Booster

WARNING: Some features require a rooted device.
WARNING: Try the Lite (free) version before buying!

DESCRIPTION:
Download web files much faster by using wifi and mobile data at the same time!
Share or open a link from any program, like the web browser, and download it at speeds up to two times faster than usual.
This is the only advanced download manager tool that can download using wifi and mobile data connection simultaneously*!
It's also an easy downloader that can download all files, not just the default file types.

*In 2014, two years later, Samsung released the Galaxy S5 phone which incorporates a similar feature called "Download Booster".

IMPORTANT NOTES:
- Using both networks together requires root access (remember to say "authorize" to the superuser prompt).
- Since this program uses mobile data connection, by using it you may incur in additional charges from your network operator.
- To unleash its full potential, this turbo downloader needs good (and balanced) wifi and mobile reception/bandwidth. If you have good wifi internet, 2G mobile is not enough, you need 3G or 4G.
- Using both connections is not supported on all devices / rom combinations.
- Some web servers may provide insufficient functionalities on the requested files.
- Currently only http and https protocols are supported (no ftp or torrent yet)
- The Lite version has a filesize limit of 50 megabytes.

USAGE:
Just click on a link or open a remote file: if the file type is recognised by Super Download, it will start getting it.
If this method doesn't work, try click-and-hold on the link, select "share with" and choose SuperDownload.
Finally, you can copy and paste a url in the "add url" dialog.

PLANNED FEATURES:
- Multiple files
- Other ways of speeding up downloads

Need to support multiple downloads or queuing for it to be 5 stars

Free version worked brilliantly, paid version kept dropping to 1kbs after a few min. Adjusted all settings.

Q70%

Never connected my mobile data. It turns it on but never uses it

Q70%
by Q####:

Would of been amazing but to actually use the full feature that this app is all about I need root. Should say in description if you want to dual download you need root.

Other wise cool idea

W70%
by W####:

As a replacement for the built-in downloaded on my nexus. Tap a link in chrome and it downloads with s.d. way fast, color me impressed.

X70%
by X####:

Great concept but still has bugs. Figured this would work out great for downloading roms but it fc's.

X70%
by X####:

This is a stand-alone downloader - not a replacement of builtin, or overlay. Usefull only if you often need to download large files, not suitable for everyday use yet. Good idea, keep developing!

B70%
by B####:

I don't even know if it'll work with my device and ROM (it should) but I bought it to support the dev anyway because I think this is a great endeavor.

X70%
by X####:

Awesome!

X70%
by X####:

For a cheap price, you can use both connection at the same time for downloading. Ranting on issues would not help the developer but instead sending him the bug reports would definitely put both parties in a win solution. Hope that the developer would promptly make updates on this best app. Kudos to you!

by X####:

I love to support things that are a great idea and seem obvious when explained but no one thought of it yet, this is something like that! Keep up the development.

For .99 this is a steel. I am looking forward to what this app will be able to do in the future!

A70%
by A####:

This app needs work. However it has awesome potential. I hope this app gets finished quickly and properly. First on my list would be goo.im support.

This app let's me download files at blazing speeds! Using my home wifi and lte, I download at over 6MB/s! Mega BYTES! 48mbit/second!

H70%

Keep up the good work! For some reason it won't max out my Wifi speed.

R70%
by R####:

I used it while not at home. Just tether a connection from someone else's phone and combine with your data network, bam!

R70%
by R####:

Apps like this are the reason I roll with Android. Keep up the good work.

R70%
by R####:

The description says it's a work in progress otherwise I would give it a one star. It worked great the first time I downloaded something, and I was in heaven...The next few time I tried to download something, the program would download about a 1/4 of the download then freeze up. It also makes the phone super sluggish while running. I've frozen the app until another update comes out to try.

R70%
by R####:

One: love the idea. Two: If this functionality was expanded to web browsing and this could be the default downloader this app would be a major game changer. As it stands, it has limited use-cases but is still a great idea and a great accomplishment.

Y70%
by Y####:

Great attitude and active development. Wouldnt combining the d/l capability of wifi and 3g to a tethering app (maybe over usb) be great too.

R70%
by R####:

Needs option to specify download directory. Would be nice to be able to use with any application/service.

R70%
by R####:

In the best way possible. Works great so far from what I've seen.

Not Working

R70%
by R####:

Tried tonight and believe works ok. I do have apps that do this but some fail and worth a shot at price. Omg tho it slows my phone to nothing and cpu at max. I'll need to look at this more. Worked as stated tho I think. Two things, heats up phone like whoa and expect it to drain all juice from battery, other than that seems ok.

T70%
by T####:

Good start

R70%
by R####:

Everything with this works great but with jelly bean, auto rotate removed items from the download list. Also, sometimes downloads say finishing at 100% but never do.

W70%
by W####:

I cant believe it has taken so long for someone to make a reliable download manager. Now they have i can't be happier.

X70%
by X####:

This was genius, hope more options come, torrent, maybe using WiFi and 4g and tethering to computer to speed up computer connections Thanks

I just installed Super Download and after using it for a few days realize it is more hassle than help.

Good idea but that's it.

Doesnt pickup the downloads properly. Would be great if it worked all the time.

Don't buy this app! Your money is better spent on loader droid pro. This app is extremely buggy and unreliable. Not to forget, it's very lacking in features , compared to others. This app can only do a quarter of stuffs that loader droid can. This app sucks so much! But ... I would like to keep using it. Please fix all issues and add more features to your app. Take loader droid as an "inspiration". If you can't do what I want, then give my money back and I'll remove my one star review.
