Rated 4 out of 5
by Berni11, 7 years agoIt works great but I found a few things which needs improvement.
- You should be able to change the download folder
It seems that you are using the wrong title for the pictures. This results in:
- When a picture is hidden with "Spoiler Image", it is named Spoiler Image instead of the real name (real name can be found in source code of the page)
- Because of this, only the last "Spoiler Image" gets saved
- Some pictures are shortened with a "(...)" at the end of the name, instead of using the full name.
- You should be able to change the download folder

- Rated 1 out of 5by km, 3 years agoI reloaded the thread, reopened the browser and rebooted my PC, but it still doesn't work.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Gerrold, 3 years agoThis extension works beautifully in Firefox.
It does not in Brave (maybe in Brave I need to tweak some configuration?). - Rated 5 out of 5by FredStone, 4 years agoWorks well, though appear to have an issue when 4chan catalogue contains more than 100 images/gifs or webm? Is there a workaround?
- Rated 1 out of 5by punkrock4dads, 4 years agoNot only does this not work it installs a service worker.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 15138009, 4 years agoWould be a lot better if it actually worked on the sfw boards
- Rated 5 out of 5by someweirdinternetuser, 4 years agoI've been searching a lot for a straight-forward image downloader for 4chan, this serves the purpose so well!
Only 1 thing, which is very, very IMPORTANT, could we have the image names when downloading rather than numbers???
THAT WOULD BE AWESOME.
AT LEAST CAN YOU SEND ME THE CODE SO I WILL DO IT MYSELF?

- Rated 1 out of 5by PatPeter, 6 years agoThis extension can't download webms, only jpegs and gifs. Personally I hate the webm format but sadly it's 90% of what 4chan uses nowadays.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12659413, 6 years agoYa there is some room for feature improvement but the addon is very useful and does exactly what it's designed to do. I had uninstalled it because my anti-virus noticed its 'reviews were low' but most of these negative reviews are due to feature requests, minor nuisances and past problems, so 5 stars :)
P.S. for those who want downloads to go into a specific folder, download the media then right click -> group by -> date -> drag select -> cut and paste into a folderDeveloper response
posted 6 years agoThank you for your understanding. Your appreciation and understanding meant a lot.
I have been extremely busy with other stuff lately and I'm going to release a new update soon with the requested features yet I must acknowledge your workaround is very clever. - Rated 4 out of 5by Kato, 7 years ago

Improve man - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13351861, 7 years ago[Sorry I have to change my review because this is important stuff.]
Should you use "4Chan Media Downloader" in Private Browsing Mode, the files you download with it will actually appear in the Downloads of the Normal Mode. This is quite a big issue! - Rated 4 out of 5by luisoliv, 8 years agoit's works flawlessly for me, but unfortunately, it aumatically downloads all the images to my "downloads" folder with any subfolder or organization so it mixes up all my other things recently downloaded

posted 8 years agoI was thinking exactly about the same issue and I was thinking of creating a directory with the thread title or the first characters of the thread if it was submitted without a title. If you have another suggestion feel free to tell me here or through my email. Developer response
posted 8 years agoThe new update is on its way. It's just taking so much time to be reviewed. The delay isn't my problem it's Mozilla's.- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12718480, 8 years agoj'ai bien l’icône qui s'affiche dans firefox mais quand je clique dessus cela ne télécharge pas les images 4chan
