Downloader 1.50 is now available on the App Store. This release adds a scroll slider for quick access when viewing large documents.
Version 1.50 also features some tweaks in the FAQ/support screen and fixes for iPad compatibility.
A bug has been found when viewing PDFs in the document viewer, causing the app to crash. This is fixed in Downloader 1.51, which is already on the way.
Update: Downloader 1.51 has just been approved and should be appearing shortly.
Downloader 1.40 has been released this week, with many improvements and refinements. New 720p demo videos have been uploaded to YouTube.
Also, the price has been lowered to $1.99, so have at it!
Downloader 1.40 is coming, and I've uploaded new demonstration videos to YouTube. Check them out on the Downloader - Demo Videos page.
Just finished downloading the new iPhone OS beta SDK, and there's some great stuff in 3.2 that will pay off in a big way for Downloader. USB connectivity for sure.
Interestingly, Apple says these pieces are only on iPad, but I'm sure by the time the next iPhone OS comes out (and is the focus of an Apple event), the important pieces will be on your phone.
P.S. Downloader 1.40 was submitted this past weekend, hope to see that online soon.
Downloader Lite has just been approved by Apple and will be available in the App Store any minute now.
Downloader Lite is a free version of the powerful Downloader app. Try it for free and see why it's the best app of its kind in the App Store, with its clean design and innovative file/download management. Downloader Lite will store up to 10 downloaded files and manage 3 in the download queue.
Upgrade to Downloader for premium features, including Audio/Video/Document viewers that remember your position, creation of Zip archives, extraction of password-protected archives, downloading from password-protected sites, web browser bookmarks, emailing attachments from the app and more!
By far the biggest update yet, Downloader 1.30 is live in the App Store.
In addition to bug fixes and usability improvements, this release includes over 20 new features.

If you follow app store rejections and the iPhone developer community, you've probably got some opinion on the latest travesty -- Apple rejected an update of Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil Touch. If you don't particularly care about these matters, or if you can't tolerate mixing metaphors, stop reading now.
Still reading? OK cool.
Downloader has been featured at Smokin Apps:
"There are many file utility applications for mobile devices, but the Downloader app pairs a fully-featured program with an integrated web browser, making it super-easy to use."
Great write-up, thanks guys!
Hello from the hammock complex, thought I'd post an update.
Downloader 1.2 has been getting good reviews in the app store and there are more and more users everyday. I want to continue to improve it for all of you, and continue to make it the best file download app on the App Store. Today I need suggestions on what features you want next.
After a lengthy review process, Downloader 1.1 has been approved for sale in the App Store. This version features bug fixes and auto-paste, and requires iPhone OS 3.0. Read more about it on the product page or in the App Store
Apple has decided that applications that allow unrestricted access to the internet must adopt a 17+ rating. Since one of the key features of Downloader is a web browser for easier downloads, Downloader is now rated 17+.
