5 download accelerator and manager apps for Android

9comments

If you often see yourself downloading files on your smartphone or tablet, the simple Tap > Save functionality provided by most devices isn't very convenient. Many times you are left wondering about the exact location of the files, partially complete downloads due to an unstable connection, or unable to download files beyond certain size limits. Fortunately, third-party download manager apps offer excellent workarounds for problems such as these and present a more streamlined, more in-control download experience. Moreover, they feature algorithms to speed up downloads by splitting files in threads. If you like the sound of that, come check out these five apps and see which one will work for you.
