Download Router

About

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.
