**** does not work. absolute waste edit: just realized i have to let the whole video play out before it shoes a download button. but going for 3 stars due to the hassle of trying toget this thing to work.

The app still works but only downloads at the speed of the video: for instance, a 25 minute video takes 25 minutes to download.
