Snag pairs a browser extension with a desktop download manager for videos, playlists, and other files.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-25 issue.

For: People managing video playlists and large downloads
Worth noticing: The Windows and macOS builds are not code-signed yet; DRM-protected videos are excluded.

Field notes

The download page lists Windows 10 and 11, Apple silicon and Intel Macs, and Linux packages for Debian/Ubuntu, Fedora, and Arch. It says the Firefox add-on can be installed separately, while other supported browsers are guided through setup after the app is launched. The page also names yt-dlp and an FFmpeg build as components, and notes that DRM-protected videos cannot be downloaded.
