Tired of a messy Downloads folder?

Organize Downloads by Date automatically sorts every file you download into a structured hierarchy based on the current date (e.g., Downloads/2025/11/file.png). No more searching through thousands of loose files—everything is filed away instantly.

Key Features:

📂 Automatic Sorting: Works in the background to organize files the moment they are downloaded.
📅 Date-Based Structure: Creates a logical folder tree (Year > Month) for easy archiving.
🚀 Lightweight & Fast: Uses a modern Service Worker for zero impact on browser performance.
🔒 Privacy-First: Runs 100% locally on your machine. No data is ever collected or sent to the cloud.
How it works: Simply install the extension and continue browsing as usual. Your next download will automatically be placed in a subfolder corresponding to the current year and month.

Original concept by Lucas Bustamante, modernized and maintained by Fred Deichler.
