Renames (some?) files based on their mime type, not their original extension. eg. .some-random-application-specific-extension gets renamed .json, because that's the kind of file it is... but it won't work with the correct application because you've lost the metadata that says which application should open the file. |

Unfortunately, this chrome extension is changing file extension. For example, .CSV files may change extension to .TXT or .XLS while the content stays CSV. |

My first review for a Chrome extension! This is a great extension. I was searching for something like this for images (like the old "save images in folder" in Firefox) and Downloads Router manages all files you like. And domain! Too bad there is no more development. We all need a backup setting button :-) |

It's annoying to configure currently, but it could save a lot of time in the long-run. The main thing I wish for though is the compatibility to also define certain sections of a domain to work for routing through the referrer as well. For example places like 4chan have all the boards on the same subdomain but each board has its own section, like /a/ and /g/. So I'd like that kind of addition to this. Although the bitbucket link to this doesn't seem to exist anymore so I might just have to make this change on my own end to get it to work like that. |

It works perfectly and it is easy to understand even for non-super techies like me. Very useful to organize your download folder if, like me, you often download files from the same sites. |

Works fine but the instructions are difficult to understand. Tip: do NOT include the full path in the "Destination folder". So, for example, if the default download location set in Chrome is "C:\Downloads", and you want to create a rule to save all files with the word "monkey" into "C:\Downloads\Animals\Mammals", then create a rule as follows: |

4 stars. Love it. Would be 5 stars if it accepted wildcards MIME types such as "image/*" and "video/*" |

Unnecessarily complicated. would be very easy to improve some of the pain points mentioned in many other reviews that've been there for years. drop down for mime, auto subdomain or wildcard, subfolders based on name, etc etc. Needs improvement |

Have been using for years in Chrome. Just installed in the new Chromium-based Microsoft Edge browser, and it's working perfectly so far. An export/import feature would've been nice (I had to copy/paste all my mappings) but considering the time this saves me, not a big deal. |
