Reviews & Comments of Image Downloader chrome extension

Not really working

Amazing app. Time saving for me.

does not work on all sites.

Nice. Very powerful and useful.

Been using it for years. Very powerful saving and selection filtering options. It's the best!

Been working great for years but suddenly when you scroll down after opening search by image it closes by itself. This is on Chrome Version 108.0.5359.72 and Windows 11.

very usefull and easy

very use full extension. i like it

Love this app, easy to use ♥

Great image downloader extension.

Does not work on F B anymore

Downloads previews, and not the actual image. Poor image downloader. 2/5

Really nice. If you're struggling with converting to PNG, please click on the extension to do the downloading of the image to PNG.

Can even grab images you're normally unable to download! Works better than another 5-star average addon I tried, even though this has a lower rating. It deserves more attention!

Great! Keep up the good work!

Does not work

awesome way of image scraping, but for more difficult scraping I would prefer "e-scraper .com" on-demand web scraping service.

DID NOT WORK. There was no indication on any web page that has images, how I was supposed to download them other than the standard right click on an image that is there without this extension. A waste of my time.

Working great

good , it really saved my time

It's a good application but it has flaws like you can't change the default file type from jfif in batch to png for anything else this is really important.

خوب هست

To me this is the best extension for downloading images in one go from any site.

added this to try download a gif from youtube community, since right clicking only downloaded the first frame, this extension did the same thing

Doesn't work

This has been really useful, however when i want to download an image it also displays thumbnails, there should be a way to know size of image that you want to download

Good downloader, but Instagram will punitively hit you with 'security' questions, locking you out of your account nearly every few hours. I now spend more time locked out of Instagram than not because they refuse to send more than one text code per day. It's clearly stupidity on behalf of Instagram - but I've narrowed it down to this plugin that they are detecting because it pre-loads all the images which they are detecting as hundreds of additional accessing done instantly. The solution would be to not preload the images full size until you click download.

This is a completely useless extension. It does absolutely nothing. You hit the "download" button, and nothing happens. The extension never even asks you where you want to save the files, and the idiot developer didn't bother writing any documentation to explain how it's even supposed to work.

Has a bug (in incognito mode) where once you use the plugin, right-clicking any image and selecting "save-as" takes about 16 seconds for the dialog to appear. Also, the save-images-in-subdirectory function seems to have stopped working recently.

Used to work great, but after the updates, It doesnt really do anything. Cna find images except for tiny logos and thumbnails. Even with images I cna easy right click and save as. Disappointing

Didn't work exactly, how it should work.

terrible. installs malaware search called trovi on ur pc

I like it because it works! However, the one drawback for me personally is that the only format option is to save the file as an .svg file, with which I was unfamiliar. Since the purpose of the application is to generate useable image files, it would be SO nice if one could select a format; .jpg or .png for example. My image viewing and converting software therefore has to be employed to make that formatting change in order for various other software to recognize it as an image file (.svg is not recognized in programs to which I like to add images, such as pdf or docx.) This doubles the processes to perform, and doubles the amount of saved files on the computer hard drive. Thank you for this program. Chrome seems not to have its own image selection capability, which continually surprises me.

- interferes with another extensions' download folder replacing it with it's own - sometimes downloads to default download folder instead of that I choose and all similar extensions with this flaw

it works perfectly , there are some websites who dont give free download access for images or photos , and it fixes that . thank you

how to save pictures with original names instead of 1,2,3,.....???

I would put 5 stars if not for one annoying bug. I can typically download a page no issue, and have it appear in the specified folder. However, After several pages it will stop downloading into the folder it has been. Instead, the images are downloaded to my download folder. It's still working all in all, just annoying.

loved it

Love it

Why do I have to save every picture again, after I selected all pictures to download from the page?

It's awesome but, why does not it work on the private tabs?!

i have a problem with renaming files..Like, how can i rename my sequentially downloaded files?I want the first file to be name 26,the following one 27 and so on. But this extension always appends a 1 at the end of the filename i write in the rename bar. Help me pls

i use it every day. i love it

asking saved folder for each image is a disturbance, can you fix it?

Used this for years and worked great. Poor UI choice to move rename folder box to the bottom. Worse is that since recent updates this extension somehow interferes with other extensions and prevents them from renaming folders. Was a nightmare to problem solve but process of elimination tracked back to this, hope it can be fixed soon to prevent ongoing conflicts with other extensions.

works on all sites i tried !

Such an awesome image downloader. I use it for downloading gallery sets of p0rn!!

Don't Download this, IT"S A SCAM. 3 reason's 1:It keeps crashing 2:You cant download anything 3:It does not work If you like this Look out i'm coming.

I found a working Tools!

I can't download images as Jpeg anymore since the update. This extension is now useless.

i disliked it because i cant download more then like 40 pics. i tried downloading 40 by 40 by 40 but even that, it doesnt download the selected items and starts downloading the stuff i already downloaded. very annoying

Image Downloader has improved greatly since it's earlier version. With all the work the developer has done to fix some of the new bugs, I have to applaud the donated time to work on this! Saving to nested subdirectories, grabbing linked images, ability for the extension to minimize and keep running to the same subdirectory assigned(This was a hassle in previous versions), one-click download on individual images. I'm quite happy with the result! Thanks for all your work on this!

This suddenly changed to require access to all website data. For an image downloader, this is inherently abusive and appears to have bad intent. There is no reason to require access to my passwords. Removed.

It works, but after the recent update the download to subfolder function has 2 major bugs. 1) It breaks the default download path of Chrome. Even if Chrome's setting says it's downloading to the default folder, it still by default downloads to the subfolder as defined in the textbox. 2) You can't change the subfolder name after one download. No matter how many times you try to change it, it still downloads to the first subfolder name. These bugs are not fixed unless you restart Chrome completely.

Worked great until 2 updates ago. 2 updates ago: all of gifs download as webp which is useless. Before it was hit and miss. I had to switch to firefox because for now you can control it there. Wish there was a good image downloader on firefrox but there isn't. Last update: the folder to save stopped working. Stopped creating new folder with the name specified (have to go create it first manually) and even if I changed it back to a different folder (existing) it doesn't save to it, saves still to the previous one. It was a marvelous extension, but those two issue break it for me critically.

Working great until few days. Now using width and height closes Chrome.

All I Needed. Love it

Worked great for a long while but now suddenly, started yesterday Apr. 27 I believe, it add-on is automatically disabled when I start Chrome because it apparently can "Read and change all your data on the websites that you visit". I understand this is a standard Chrome message for some add-onns, but that's not exactly what we want from Image Downloader (meaning passwords could theoretically be read!). What happened? Can this be rectified??? Thanks

I don't write reviews often, but I will now, in developer's defense. I never thought I could use this on Instagram, I was using something else before, but this extension is easier to use. I'm a long time user and I appreciate all the features it comes with. Very useful to have for downloading images. Someone was complaining in a recent review that it won't work on Instagram anymore, so that's why the developer changed permissions I guess. This is a great extension any artist should have. Thanks, Vlad!

I see a lot of posts here that might be referring to the wrong "Image Downloader" extension. There apparently was an extention by the same name that Bleeping Computer warned about a few years back, https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/psa-beware-the-image-downloader-chrome-adware-extension/ Also, they menion another one called Google Image Downloader, https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/remove-google-image-downloader-chrome-extension I've used this extension for years and it has never caused any "image shrinking", service outages or any such issues. I'm not confident the posters above are talking about this software.

Chrome blocked it as it's now reporting that this extension will read and change all your data on websites you visit, yet the publisher still states that it will not collect or use your data, and having to scroll through past thumbnail sized images to get to the full size ones was a pain anyway. I'll give it a while to see if it gets fixed, but I'll be looking for something else from the look of it.

No longer supporting instagram so its useless now for me. To bad.

This is a very useful extension -- great work! Recommended. May I suggest a couple things? 1. Bring back the blue border around the selected images, since when you scroll down you can no longer see the new checkmark that replaced the blue border. 2. Show a small tally of the number of selected images. (Sometimes I select all, then deselect a few, but end up downloading only the ones I had tried to deselect -- due apparently to an unexpected refresh of the list.) Thank you!

4/2021: No longer able to save to subdirectories under initial subdirectory, eg. \temp, \temp\temp1, \temp\temp2. Otherwise I've always liked this extension. Now, after downloading to \temp, I have to move files to \temp\temp1, etc.

Worked okay up until today. Instagram now no longer works with this extension for downloading, so it's going to be removed from my system in favour of one that does.

I'm very happy with it. The extension save the original file type like I like it!

best extension for images download, Good job.

Excellent app, but the file name of the sequence rename is not as the sequence displayed online. E.g. the image showed at the bottom of web is renamed to small numbers.

It changes the image colours to be darker. I guess if you don't mind that you get a 'remix' rather than a copy she's all good.

Finally found one that works and it works great! Just click the extention icon on your browser, a drop down box will apear with all the images in it, then click the down arrow buy the images and presto you have that image! Thank you, you rock! Now I have lots of images to use as inspiration for my next mouse art. <3

best extension for images download

Only this worked!

pretty cool program, saved me a lot of time

Thanks, it helped me a lot to copy a picture of a painting, it is good to be able to open the picture with another software now

Very Good Extension For Image Download.

It was a good extension, but now has malware... dont use it

Useful, especailly the mass download option.

best

Excellent!

Works great and it's free! Highly recommend it. You might get a "document" instead of an image but just open it up in preview (on mac) and export it to jpeg and you are good to go

Sweet christ it worked better than expected, thanks a ton!

best extension

best

its good, still need improve - no bulk rename files

WOOOOOOOOW THE BEST Image Downloader Extension . It Very Fast And easy Thanks A Lot

Why its downloading in small size. It downloads all images in small size which is not what I want . Why you all image downloader interrupts the size of image? No picture can exceeds from 300 x 200???? through direct direct of google we get full size picture about 1000 x 600 etc. I used multiples all have same sort of problem.

doesn't let me download background images, disappointing

Amazing app. But, how do I set my default folder?

SO fast. I figured out I had to scroll all the way to the bottom of my tagged photos so that they were all loaded on the screen then downloaded 1000+ pics in seconds to my download folder. I have been trying to find a way to do this for years. Did exactly what I needed. Thanks

Great extension. I just miss it should at least remember the last folder used to save the image

Excellent Extension. It does exactly what I wanted. Thank you!

Does not pick up all the images, also, does not download in image format for example, PNG, JPEG etc..

Very useful.

EVERYTIME! I must have downloaded between Google and Firefox a hundred of these image downloaders,and guess what.... This one is just as useless as all the others. does anyone test these?

It can't keep the quality of the images

Strait up, Awesome!

dont work download image url in css example: background-image: url(../images/bg-page-header-.jpg);

Honestly, it's a great extension that does what it says it will do. My only recommendation (if the developers actually read the reviews) would be to have a "rename all" function. It would just make the job 10x easier, as well as fixes any image order issues. Adding that would make this a top-tier app no questions asked.

great app

It is actually amazing, when I tried to download 122 picture with this extension and it work perfectly and fine. It makes less hassle to download the pictures one by one

I need help, whenever i try to download an image it comes out as a thumbnail only

doesn't download files in order, so multiple duplicate names get messed up. also for some reason after specifying a sub-folder half of my downloads are occasionally downloaded to the root specified folder.

very good.

Additionally, please support .svg files.
