Сортировка файлов по папкам в зависимости от расширения это конечно хорошо. Но если бы была сортировка по сайтам, откуда файл скачан, или по адресу загрузки, то было бы вообще шик. Тот же *.zip архив я могу скачать с совершенно разных сайтов и их нужно сортировать по разным папкам а не все в кучу

Really liked it, it solved the issues I was facing with other extensions. simple yet powerful and helpful 5 stars no doubt

A great app easy to use. 1. Since some downloaded files should be sorted in other folders are often packed file(.zip/.rar etc.), they should be sorted later but with lesser effort, so I use windows sorting mechanism to help to pin unclassified and archive fold on top, when your download folder is set as "sort by - Name": -folder name starts with "[" will be displayed on top of the rests; -add a "_" will make it top among them. 2. And I use sub folders by adding "/" trying to make the sorted folders better sorted. My folder arrangement based on windows system for your references, feel free to make it yours: [_unclassified] Unclassified [_archive] zip,7z,tar,gz,md5,rar,r00,r01,r02,r03,r04,r05,r06,r07,r08,r09,r10,r11,r12,r13,r14,r15,r16,r17,r18,r19,r20,r21,r22,r23,r24,r25,r26,r27,r28,r29 [_archive]/torrent torrent [app]/windows exe,dll [app]/phone apk,ipa [doc]/office csv,doc,docx,md,mht,mhtml,ppt,rtf,wpd,wps,xls,xlsb,xlsm,xlsx [doc]/ebook azw3,chm,djvu,epub,mobi,pdf,txt [doc]/code bat,bin,c,class,cpp,cs,css,go,h,htm,html,ini,java,js,json,kt,kml,lua,php,py,sql,reg,swift,vb,yaml,xml [media]/image jpg,jpeg,gif,png,webp [media]/audio aac,ac3,aiff,amr,dts,m3u,m4a,mp3,ogg,wav,wma [media]/music ape,flac,opus,mid,midi [media]/video 3gp,asf,avi,flv,m2t,m2ts,m4v,mjpeg,mkv,mov,mp4,mp4v,mpeg,mpg,mts,swf,webm,wmv [design]/adobe psd,ai,jsx [design]/icon svg,ico [design]/font otf,pfb,ttf
