v1.4-beta

UI Improvements

UI is now scalable across a variety of resolutions using constraint layout and has been made more pretty. Check out the update in the Play Store.

v1.3-beta

Google play store release

Link to download can be found at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dansudz.simpledl

Argument support

Custom arguments like they appear in the desktop cli are now avaliable in the app

Notification fixes

Clicking on notification takes you back to app. Notifications are cleared when the cancel download button is pressed.

v1.2-beta

Fails to install

This version fails to install, probably due to a signing error. Do not use it.

Bug fixes

Fixed UI bug where keyboard would mess up button locations. Now it overlaps the UI. Shifted a text-view up a bit to increase compatibility with 16:9 phone screens.

v1.1-beta

Current features

*Basic youtube-dl features (download video, playlist, etc. with a link)
*Change download directory (external storage may not work)
*Cancel download (poor implementation, reloads entire app as youtube-dl is in a Async task which I haven't figured out how to correctly exit)
*Download progress in notification bar (poor implementation, displays last line generated by python console and currently it is not possible to clear it once download is complete)

Testing needed

Currently only tested on my device (Oneplus 7 pro), UI may get messed up by different screen resolutions. Should work on android 6.0+.

Larger than necessary download/install size and cache

This apk supports all CPU architectures and as a result is large in size (approx. 25 MB). Using an apple bundle will result in smaller download sizes (approx. 15MB). It also supports pre-compiled python pyc files which balloons the cache size but increases performance on install.
