About Download Router

Take control of your downloads with automatic file organization. Download Router intelligently routes your downloads to specific folders based on rules you create, keeping your Downloads folder clean and organized. Stop wasting time searching through hundreds of files in your Downloads folder. Set up routing rules once, and every download automatically goes to the right place - whether by website domain, file type, or filename pattern. HOW IT WORKS Create routing rules to organize your downloads automatically: - Domain rules: Route all downloads from specific websites to designated folders (e.g., all GitHub files to Code/GitHub) - File type rules: Automatically organize by extension (e.g., all PDFs to Documents, all images to Images) - Pattern matching: Route files based on filename patterns or keywords When you download a file, a confirmation overlay shows where it will be saved. Approve it, change it, or let it auto-save after a few seconds. Your downloads are organized instantly without any manual work. KEY FEATURES Automatic download routing based on custom rules you create Priority system ensures the right rule applies when multiple rules match Pre-configured file type groups for videos, images, documents, 3D files, archives, and software Confirmation overlay shows download destination before saving Fallback notifications when overlay cannot be displayed Optional companion app enables native folder pickers and saving files anywhere on your computer Statistics tracking shows your download activity and routing success Dark mode support for comfortable viewing Conflict resolution handles duplicate filenames intelligently PERFECT FOR Developers organizing code repositories and project files Designers managing assets, images, and creative resources Students organizing course materials and documents by subject Content creators managing videos, audio files, and media assets Anyone who downloads frequently and wants an organized file system PRIVACY FIRST Download Router respects your privacy completely.
