What Flash Video Downloader is
Flash Video Downloader is a free Chrome extension for downloading video and Flash files from webpages. Clicking its toolbar icon shows media files detected on the current webpage. You can download one listed file or start downloads for all listed files to your hard drive. The listing names SWF, FLV, MKV, MP4, AVI, and other formats, and says the extension works with most webpages without naming specific supported sites. It is offered through the Chrome Web Store for a desktop browser. The publisher is Happy Apps, with [email protected] listed for support. The store listing shows version 2.0, last updated November 21, 2023, and 40,000 users. The developer says the extension will not collect or use user data and declares that data is not sold outside approved use cases, used for unrelated purposes, or used for creditworthiness or lending decisions. Users are responsible for checking permissions and copyright for downloaded files. The Free plan costs nothing.
