Requirements and privacy

  • Before you start: Install Downie 4 or its Setapp edition and open it once. Enable Online Actions in ActionClip. Downloads require a site supported by Downie; sign in inside Downie when required.
  • Your selected text: Passes only video links from the selected text to Downie. Downie contacts the video sites and controls downloads. ActionClip does not collect browser cookies, change your clipboard, or alter Downie's preferences.

Nothing is sent until you click the action. ActionClip never runs this integration quietly in the background.
