Features
A small extension with a surprisingly tidy toolbox.
The homepage gives you the short version. This page opens the drawers: Sorting, Renaming, Rules, Rescue, Log, and local-first handling without turning your download history into a cloud suitcase.
Sorting
Download Sorting
Choose where Chrome downloads should land by group, exact type, website/source, or your preferred order.
Read more →Renaming
Smart Renaming
Build readable filenames from Date, Website, and Name, then choose the order that makes sense for how you search later.
Read more →Source-aware
Source-Aware Folders
Group downloads by where they came from, even when the file type itself is not special.
Read more →Rules
Download Rules
Create rules for websites, file kinds, extensions, or filename patterns so repeat downloads follow repeat behavior.
Read more →One-time
One-Time Downloads
Handle the next download differently without changing your normal Sorting, Renaming, or Rules setup.
Read more →Sessions
Download Sessions
Start a focused mode when you are collecting files for one task, then stop it when the task is done.
Read more →Rescue
Rescue Your Downloads Folder
Clean up existing files that were already downloaded before Downloads Butler joined the household staff.
Read more →Log
Download Log
See recent download decisions, where files went, and why Downloads Butler handled them that way.
Read more →Local-first
Local-First Download Manager
Downloads Butler works locally in Chrome with no account, no cloud dashboard, and no hosted download history.
