Every Velocity feature

A download manager, video and music downloader and torrent client in one app. Here's everything it does, in plain words.

Full-speed engine

Built to use every bit of your connection.

Up to 32 connections per file

Each file is split into parts that download at the same time. 16 by default, up to 32.

Smart splitting

When one part finishes, its connection takes half of the biggest part still downloading, so no connection sits idle.

Slow-connection watchdog

Connections running far below the average are dropped and reopened automatically.

Connection reuse

Open connections are kept and reused, so there's no waiting to reconnect between parts.

Server-friendly limits

Velocity limits connections per site and backs off politely if a server asks, instead of failing.

Live progress window New in 1.7

A colour map of every connection, a 60-second speed chart, average and top speed, a per-connection table, a speed limit and "when finished" actions, for each download.

Crash-proof resume

Progress is saved constantly. After a crash, restart or power cut, downloads carry on from the last byte.

Automatic retries

Dropped connections and server hiccups are retried for you.

Speed limits

Cap total speed or a single download, so browsing and video calls stay smooth.

Video & music

From 1000+ sites, in the quality you choose.

Download button on players

A faint button appears when you hover a video. It brightens on hover, and hides in full-screen.

Choose your quality

8K and 4K down to 360p where the site offers it, with the real file size shown before you start.

MP3 with cover art

Music saved as MP3 at 320 kbps, or original-quality M4A, with the cover picture built in.

Subtitles 1.5

Download subtitles in your language and build them into the video file.

Playlists & channels 1.5

Download a whole playlist or channel in one click, each into its own folder.

Self-updating video engine 1.5

Sites change their players often. Velocity checks for a new video engine every day and installs it, verified, by itself.

Members-only content

Uses your browser sign-in, so videos you can watch while logged in can be saved too.

Media sniffer

The toolbar button lists video and audio streams the page has played, ready to download.

Torrents

A full BitTorrent client, built in.

Magnet links 1.5

Click a magnet link in your browser or paste it into Velocity.

.torrent files 1.5

Open .torrent files by double-clicking, if you choose to make Velocity the default app.

Same list, same controls

Torrents sit with your other downloads, with the same pause, resume and folders.

No hidden uploading

Velocity stops sharing as soon as a torrent finishes, so it doesn't use your upload in the background.

Browser integration

Chrome, Edge, Brave and Opera.

Catches downloads

Files you download in the browser go to Velocity automatically and download much faster.

Info window before you start

See the name, size and type, choose quality and folder, then start. Just like you'd expect.

Right-click menu

"Download with Velocity" on any link, plus "Download video / music from this page".

Site grabber 1.5

Lists every file linked on a page. Filter by type and download the ones you want in one go.

Image download button 1.5

An optional button on large images to save them in full size.

Keeps your sign-in

Downloads behind a login keep working, because Velocity uses your browser's session for that site.

Organise

Every file where it belongs.

Automatic folders

Video, Music, Documents, Compressed, Programs and Books, each in its own folder.

Download complete window

Open the file, open its folder, or close. Right when it finishes.

Checksum check

Paste an MD5, SHA-1 or SHA-256 value and Velocity confirms the file arrived undamaged.

Batch add & import

Paste many links at once, import a list from a text file, or drag links onto the window.

Same-name files New in 1.7

Choose what happens when a file already exists: save with a new name, replace it, or skip.

Search & filters

Find any download in a moment by name, type or status.

Details panel

Speed graph, connections, source address and save location for every download.

Automate

Set it and forget it.

Scheduler

Start and stop downloads at set times, such as overnight.

When done: sleep or shut down

Velocity can put your PC to sleep or shut it down when every download has finished.

Clipboard monitor 1.5

Copy a link anywhere and Velocity offers to download it.

Queue control

Choose how many downloads run at once. The rest wait their turn.

Finish sound New in 1.7

A short sound when a download finishes, so you don't have to keep checking.

Starts with Windows

Waits quietly in the system tray and shows a notice when each download finishes.

Your way

Comfortable to use, all day.

Light & dark themes

Pick light, dark, or follow Windows.

Bigger, clearer text

No account, no tracking

Velocity never asks you to sign up and doesn't track what you download.

Stays on your PC
