About this project
OmniGet is a free, open-source desktop application for Windows, macOS, and Linux that combines a download manager with a broad media and study toolbox. Users can paste links from Udemy, Hotmart, Kiwify, YouTube, Instagram, X/Twitter, Pinterest, TikTok, Reddit, Twitch, Bilibili, Telegram, and many other sites, then choose quality options and download without using a terminal. The project relies on yt-dlp and FFmpeg, which can be installed and updated from within the app, and also includes native extractors plus gallery-dl support for image collections.
Beyond basic downloading, OmniGet provides a downloads queue with speed, phase, ETA, resume support, retry behavior, per-site rules, and automatic channel monitoring. It supports torrents and magnet links through a built-in BitTorrent client, direct HTTP files, HLS/DASH manifests, and local transfer between OmniGet installs. A browser extension can send pages to the app and forward cookies and referer information for logged-in content, with pairing handled locally.
The app also includes a Tools section with many utilities grouped by category, such as YouTube metadata and subtitle tools, speech and subtitle tools using whisper.cpp and text-to-speech, basic video editing and conversion, Instagram and X/Twitter utilities, Pinterest backup and search tools, and document-related features. Additional capabilities mentioned include a course player, PDF/EPUB reading, flashcards and spaced repetition, a music player, and an optional built-in chat feature that is off by default. OmniGet is distributed under GPL-3.0 and emphasizes local file storage, portable mode, and no telemetry on downloaded content.
