We are happy to announce the release of WhaleDown Desktop version 2024.03.0.

WhaleBrowser

In this release we've introduced a new program - WhaleBrowser. And for the first time, we used AI to design its logo. This is an important step for us to strip away the built-in browser. It will make the main program more stable.

WhaleBrowser Logo

Currently, WhaleBrowser is packaged and released with WhaleDown. Our future goal is to release WhaleBrowser separately. It can be independently downloaded and installed.

Additionally, we have fixed several bugs introduced since version 2024.2.0,

  • [detector] Fix the bug where you can't click to download
  • [detector] Fix a bug where videos cannot be detected based on web content (Windows)
  • [downloader] Fix a critical m3u8 video download bug

Known Issues

We've received some feedback that the new browser can't find previous bookmarks. We'll fix this in the next release.
