Snag splits every download into parallel threads, grabs them simultaneously, and stitches them back together. If a thread drops? It picks back up. Server flaky? Snag doesn't care. It just keeps going.
Features
Unreliable servers. Dropped connections. Files that vanish mid-transfer. Snag was built for all of it.
Splits downloads into parallel chunks using HTTP Range requests. Each thread grabs its piece simultaneously. More threads, more speed.
When a chunk fails, Snag retries with exponential backoff. Server 500? Timeout? It picks up from the exact byte it left off. Configurable per download.
Partial downloads are saved as .snag packages. Quit the app, restart your Mac, come back next week. Your download is right where you left it.
Monitors your connection. When you lose WiFi and reconnect, Snag automatically resumes errored downloads. No manual intervention.
Paste a cookies.txt or JSON export from your browser. Snag matches cookies to domains and authenticates your downloads seamlessly.
No torrents. No crypto mining. No built-in browser. No subscription. Just a native macOS app that downloads files. That's it.
Speed
Most download tools use one connection. Snag splits the file into chunks and downloads them all at once.
