Download Shuttle is a simple download manager and accelerator designed for Mac. This utility comes as an alternative to using the built-in download manager from your default web browser for fetching files from the Internet.
The program is packed with a user-friendly interface, works fast, and provides you with a detailed report based on your download tasks. What's more, it uses minimum CPU resources while downloading the online data you need.
Another great thing about this tool is the fact that it supports batch processing. This means that you can add multiple download URLs, one by one, and download the necessary files at the same time. Unfortunately, you don't have access to an option to import a list containing multiple download URLs. This feature is available in many desktop tools for downloading online data.
The program is also missing options for sorting the downloaded content into categories. For instance, it would be great if you'd have a category for storing inactive downloads and another one for completed tasks. The utility also lacks a built-in search tool to help you immediately locate the download items you need.
Still, Download Shuttle comes without a price tag and helps you quickly download content from the web. I'd say it's worth a try.
