Comment summary: SCrawler is highly praised for its robust downloading capabilities, wide support for various sites, and effective media management features. It is noted for being free and frequently updated, even being compared favorably to other managers like 4K Stogram and IDM. However, there is some criticism regarding the developer's unresponsive attitude towards user feedback and interface suggestions. Despite this, many users appreciate its extensive functionality and ease of use.

The functionality is great, but the creator is too prideful to listen to any suggestions on how to create a more user-friendly interface. He gives off a very non-caring attitude basically stating that he is making it for himself and allowing us to use it, which is absolutely fine. The PROBLEM here is that he seems to feel insulted when you ask a question or make a suggestion on ways to improve usability. Again, the program itself is pretty good but it has the opportunity to be the best thing since slice bread as far as downloading social media posts. He just needs to humble himself and understand people are different. Being PRIDEful as he is, he should understand that better than anyone. Not to mention, he also banned me from his discord room for simply having a different taste in anime. Ridiculous.

I've answered every question you have. I was respectful and cared about your problems. The only thing that I said is that you need to read the guide, because most of your "suggestions" are already there and covered in the guide. And yes, I banned you because you're sick! I don't want to talk to a person who loves to see people murdered. You love it so much that you even set this disgusting picture as your wallpaper. Killing people is not a taste! You're a psychopath!

It was just a graphic from a 3D animation and if you saw the whole background you would have seen that it was some kind of demonic creature that did it. You could have simply stated that you didn't like it and/or simply moved on. Banning me for my liking the HORROR genre of Anime, 3D Animation, or any other art is ridiculous. If you don't like HORROR that's fine, just hide under the sheets or whatever you must. But to ban someone simply because you don't agree with their taste in art is absurd. Do you boycott Stephen King, John Carpenter, and the others whom make horror movies?

Anyways, as childish as it was, I still believe you to be a great programmer and I wish you the best in life regardless. Take care.

SCrawler is definitely one of the best apps in its domain considering it has so many supported sites and social media which will allow you to download images, photos, videos, gifs, webms and have it all beautifully sorted and categorized any way you like.

Having in mind we are all using operating systems and devices which don't have such functionality is paramount to the quality of this application and epitome to its success and the worthy developer who single-handedly succeeded where teams have failed to meet the demand of modern users.

I can't stress it enough, not even Windows 11 or the latest and greatest Mac OS offer such functionality and those were developed by hundreds of programmers with unlimited budgets and no constraints.

Stay with me now; I'm able to download Instagram timelines, photos, stories, save channels and communities, users and collect all the media I need from supported sources such as Reddit, Pornhub, Twitter, Tiktok, even Pinterest and its pins got a lot of attention. Those who keep pinning know the importance of saving all those pins to your personal device and never losing them again.

Have you ever wanted to download all the pics from your friends' or exes' Instagram profiles or save all content a Reddit user has posted to your computer and have it available for offline use or safekeeping, or maybe even just a backup? - If the answer to any of these is yes, this is the app that got you covered, a lifehack for your digital wellbeing.

Thank you! You are awesome :-)

Amazing program that can collect all times of media from the majority of mainstream, and important niche sites as well. A simple application that has no other peer. A great tool to archive, and catalogue content from the web. I am so glad this exists, and the dev is constantly updating it.

Andy Program

Thank you for these kind words! :-)
