How to Bind Third-Party Downloader

Want to improve your mobile browser’s download speed and capabilities? X Browser supports binding with various professional third-party downloaders to take your download experience to the next level.

X Browser comes with a built-in default downloader that provides basic HTTP download and resume capabilities to meet users’ daily download needs, following the principle of keeping things simple.

However, in certain scenarios, such as downloading large files, BT torrents, or M3U8 video resources, you may need more professional download tools. X Browser supports seamless binding with mainstream third-party downloaders such as IDM, ADM, Xunlei, and Gopeed, allowing you to enjoy advanced features like multi-threaded downloads and BT downloads, greatly improving download speed and success rate.

TL;DR (Quick Start)

  • Temporary Selection: Choose downloader from popup dialog when downloading
  • Set as Default: Settings > Basic Settings > Current Downloader
  • Recommended Tools: 1DM, ADM, Xunlei for multi-threaded and M3U8 downloads
  • Time Required: ~2 minutes to configure

How to Bind and Use Third-Party Downloaders
