HarborDrop v1.3.0

HarborDrop v1.3.0 for Mac

HarborDrop by Vesslo is a native macOS download manager—an IDM-style alternative for Mac—with multi-segment acceleration, resume support, and browser integration for faster, organized downloads.

Version 1.3.0 is the current 1.x release line. Use the in-app updater for build-specific notes; feature scope below matches Vesslo’s official documentation.

What HarborDrop does

Speed & reliability:

• Multi-segment downloads — parallel connections on servers that support range requests
• Stable resume and clear progress/status for large files
• HLS / m3u8 workflows for permitted, non-DRM streaming sources

Browser integration:

• Companion extensions for Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc, Firefox, and other Chromium browsers
• Detect media and page links; send downloads to the Mac app via Native Messaging
• Optional download interception, right-click capture, and batch “all links” picking

Organization & automation:

• Auto-categorization with domain and filename rules
• Site Grabber — batch-collect links from a site to a chosen depth
• Scheduled downloads (per official docs scope)
• Post-download actions — Finder reveal, rename scripts, AppleScript, Shell, or JavaScript

Version 1.3.0

HarborDrop 1.3.0 continues the mature download-manager workflow: segmented transfers, stream capture, browser handoff, rules, and automation. Pair the desktop app with the current browser extension for the best capture experience.
