ManoDestra - Download Scheduler

Allows the user to schedule downloads to run during their preferred time window. Downloads are paused when outside of the user's preferred download window and resumed when the window is reached, allowing users to manage when downloads occur.

This extension pauses any downloads that are initiated outside of the user's preferred download time window and resumes them inside the time window. Any downloads initiated inside the time window are allowed to progress normally.

You can amend the time window via the Download Scheduler's settings button on the toolbar. This allows specification of the start and end hour of the required download window.

This will ensure that any downloads do not use up your ISP's data limitations and allows you to download files at a time when your ISP offers free data usage, often during the small hours of the morning.

It is very good to be able to download at a fixed time. However, the settings beyond the day did not work well (e.g. 23:00 to 7:00) This is disappointing. I would like the developer to be able to do this if possible. I hope the developer will continue to work hard on the development.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

ManoDestra - Download Scheduler requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Medium Allows management of download operations but generally doesn't severely affect security unless misused.
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

ManoDestra - Download Scheduler is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
