Chrono Chrome extension

Chrono Download Manager replaces Chrome's built-in downloads panel with a cleaner interface for tracking, filtering, and managing every download, and adds video and bulk image downloading tools. It's best for people who download files often and want more control than the default browser panel offers. The catch: downloading video or images from some sites may depend on how that site structures its content.

What Chrono does

Chrono Download Manager gives you a dedicated panel to track, filter, and manage every download in your browser, instead of relying on Chrome's built-in downloads page. Alongside general download management, it includes tools for downloading video and bulk-downloading images from a webpage, aimed at people who download more than the occasional file.

Chrono: free download management

The extension is free to install and use for its core download tracking and filtering features, as well as its video and bulk image downloading tools. It's built as a replacement panel rather than a paid subscription service.

Is Chrono safe?

To manage downloads, filter them, and offer video or bulk image downloading, the extension needs access to your browser's download activity and the pages you're downloading from. That access is what lets it organize downloads and detect downloadable video or image content on a page.
