SynoLoad: Manage your downloads on iOS/Android/WP7/Nokia

[fkm]

Hi,

I've developped a mobile application able to connect to your Synology NAS and manage your downloads. It is called "SynoLoad" and is available on several platforms:

- For iPhone, on the AppStore: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/synoload ... 28089?mt=8
- For iPad, on the AppStore: http://itunes.apple.com/app/synoload-hd ... 11969?mt=8
- For Windows Mobile 6.x, on my website.
- For Android 1.6 and after, on the Android Market: https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... y.SynoLoad
- For Symbian Series 60 5th edition (touchscreen) on the OVI Store
- For Windows Phone 7: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store ... 6cfb0d3d4d

SynoLoad allows you to connect to your Download Station and manage your downloads. You will be able to add or remove files, but also check the speed or pause downloads.

The included web browser will help you choose the file you wish to download with a single touch, and the smart search engine will allow you to look for any kind of file. New search engines can be added dynamically, so you will never miss your good old finder. Mininova is included by default!

Morever, the built-in RSS reader helps you keep track of your software updates. You will be able to add new RSS feeds to SynoLoad and be notified of new files to download.

Afraid to open your Download Station access to the Internet? SynoLoad handles both HTTP and HTTPS and is capable of connecting to it through a SSH Server (iPhone and WinMob only), so it is completely secure!

A complete description is available on my website as well as other screen captures:

Hi,

I'm sorry that it's too much for you... but if you have a WinMob, it's free, and if you have a Nokia or Android, it's only 2 euros for now

I think it's looking very good.  

I downloaded it for my windows phone, have to configure it still, but it could be very nice.

thanks,

Hi,

I really would like to download your software. But I have a problem. I don't have a credit card, and for the Android App market you'lle need a credit card to purchase items from the App market if I am correct.

Do you have an alternative way to get your software on my phone? With Paypal or something?

Running an HTC Desire on Android 2.1.

Greetings,
Nick

Hi,

Sorry, I don't have any other way... you will have to do with the Android Market.

Hi all !

SynoLoad v1.4 is now live on the AppStore, with a lot of improvements:

Improvements:
- Ability to save information of several NAS on Login screen.
- Ability to add bookmarks in the WebView.
- Add a button to reset the read items in the RSS Settings (will show all items on feed).
- Add upload rate, started time and file name in Download Info.
- Improve UI: Replace text buttons by image buttons.
- Improve logging system in case of error.
- Make title bar buttons bigger (easier to click).
- Improve Keypad (validation should execute the action).
- Add light grey hints in text areas.
- Automatically add default port (5000/5001) when not specified.

Bug fixes:
- RSS items are not updated when adding a new feed.
- Automatically remove "http://" in Server IP.
- Files cannot be added from websites with authentification.
- Section titles in RSS/Search are difficult to see.
- Autorefresh doesn't work when displaying Download Info.
- Contact form doesn't have Auto Correction.
- Some RSS feeds don't work anymore (changed method from POST to GET)

Best Regards,
Jérôme

Any change you could get this to work with the SABnzbd package for the Syno?

Hi,

Nope, I want SynoLoad to work with a vanilla Synology, and not require the user to install something special.

Its allready installed, so no problem there

Hi again,

When you buy a Synology server, and just flash the defaut firmware, SabNZB is there ;-) ? I don't think so. It's an optional package.

I will see what to do with that, maybe it will come in a future update (but don't wait for it !).

Thanks,
Jérôme

PS: Did you try SynoLoad? If yes, what do you think?

[Beyond_life]

The SABnzbd package works better for me. Im not going to use downloadstation just because a app is made for it. I can use my SABnzbd on my Syno atm by just reaching it though OperaMini on my Galaxy. So no problem there. I was just wondering if it would be possible to manage SABnzbd through your app.

There is an app for that Called MyNZB and is available in the appstore.

Hi,

Thanks for the tip... but I'd rather not talk about other applications in this thread if possible

Understandable, however, please understand that the simple fact that I did not remove your advertisement, or commercial posting is that you actually made a nice app, and announcing it here seems reasonable. Just as it seems reasonable to mention other apps. This other app is not even doing the same, since your app is only for Download Station, and MyNZB* is only for Sabnzbd.

*In bold because you removed it when quoting me above
