Download big files faster on your Mac
Bucky is a download manager for Mac. Big files finish sooner, stopped downloads pick up where they left off, and all your downloads are in one list.

When a download fails halfway
Your browser gives a download one try. If the connection drops at 90%, you start again. Bucky resumes from where it stopped and gets big files down sooner.
What your browser's download list doesn't do
Faster downloads
Big files finish noticeably sooner than in Safari or Chrome, with no setup.
Pick up where you left off
Pause, quit, close the lid or lose Wi-Fi. Bucky carries on from where it stopped instead of starting over.
Works with your browser
Add the extension for Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc or Firefox and your downloads go to Bucky on their own. Copy a link and Bucky offers to grab it.
Download later
Line things up to start overnight, and let Bucky put your Mac to sleep when they're done.
Save videos
Keep a video in the quality you want, or every file from a page in one go.
Keep the internet usable
Set a speed limit so one big download doesn't slow down everyone else at home.
Works alongside Torrie
Torrie handles torrents and magnet links. Bucky handles everything else you download. Both come from the same maker and look alike.
