Slow downloads #3

Closed Rikfc closed 6 years ago

Rikfc commented 6 years ago

Compared to the version 1.3.1, downloads are so slower and are not completed. I tried to restore old version but the pop-up forces me to install the new release. I've tried in iPhone ad iPad

First, v1.3.2 did not changed any downloads action but fixed extractor problem.

Second, download speed does not have anything to do with shortcuts here, it depends on your network and upstream.

I know, it's strange, but with the previous version I had no problems. My network works well (I did speedtest) and then downloading the same video through a 3rd party app (like Amerigo or Total Downloader), the download is very fast...

Sorry if I insist, but I think the problem is related to some famous adult sites. In fact, on the other sites the download speed is high. Probably these sites have a system to voluntarily reduce the download speed. It would be interesting to understand how to solve the problem. Maybe using multiple connections ..?

Yes most well-known sites throttle connection speed, we might be able to improve speed on our standalone app in the future. But on shortcuts we really can’t fix this as the downloads function cannot be modified.
