Getting Started
1. Launch a browser
Once you've downloaded and installed WhaleDown, you'll need to launch a browser first. You can launch the built-in browser by clicking the
button.If you have Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge installed on your computer, you can also launch them from the menu.
To make it easier for you to adapt to the new interface design, WhaleDown automatically opens the built-in browser when the software starts.
In versions released in 2024 and later, WhaleDown won't open the built-in browser by default when launched.
2. Visit the URL that contains the video
Normally, WhaleDown will automatically detect the URL of the video or audio. In some cases, you'll need to manually click Play and wait for the video or audio to load.
If the video contains ads, please wait for the ad to finish playing or skip the ad. Otherwise, the ad's URLs may be detected rather than the actual video URLs.
3. Select video quality
Since WhaleDown has deeply customized some websites, WhaleDown will detect various video or audio qualities when visiting these websites. In this case, you need to select the video quality before downloading.
For videos detected through browser network packets, you can download them directly without choosing the quality.
4. Download and preview videos
WhaleDown will now begin downloading the video of your choice.
WhaleDown has a built-in video player. You can download the video while previewing it without having to wait.
the download is complete and the video and audio are merged before you hear the sound.
