The mobile version of Google Chrome still remains the benchmark for web browsers for Android smartphones today, but it still has a defect. When it comes to managing file downloads, it is less convincing than its computer counterpart. Fortunately, the Advanced Download Manager application offers a very attractive alternative for managing and scheduling these downloads..

Download Manager for Android

Google Chrome is certainly the most advanced web browser ever developed for Android. You can launch instant searches, take advantage of the automatic suggestion system and even resume reading on another device thanks to the synchronization of open tabs. In short both in terms of performance and ergonomics, Chrome achieves flawless or almost.

The only regret is that the download manager integrated into the browser is still far too limited. Large bandwidth consumers will have to turn to third-party applications like Advanced Download Manager . Once installed on your Android smartphone or tablet, you can download up to 3 files at a time , pause and resume your download later, but also perform your tasks in the background. Finally, last important point, Advanced Download Manager integrates a clever planning system allowing to launch downloads on a specific date and time..

How to use Advanced Download Manager?

The Advanced Download Manager application is available in two versions. The free version only downloads up to 3 files at the same time. The paid Pro version (1.99 euros) is free of this limit as well as advertising. For this tutorial, we decided to opt for the free version which is already very powerful.

  • Open the Google Play Store and type in the Advanced Download Manager search field
  • Select the app in the results list and then click on the install button
  • Launch it by clicking on the icon created on your phone's desktop
  • Then click on the toothed wheel to open the settings menu
  • Select Download then Limit simultaneous downloads and position the cursor as far to the right as possible (namely on the number 3)
  • Click on Simultaneous connections and place the cursor on 9

Now all you have to do is open your web browser and start a download. Advanced Download Manager automatically intercepts files from any mobile browser. You can also manually enter the address of your file to download..

  • Launch the Advanced Download Manager application
  • Click the + button
  • Enter the file address in the URL field
  • Give a name to your download
  • Press the start button to start downloading your file or modify to place it in the list of pending downloads
