About

The company behind Lynx

Slowrox makes Lynx Download Manager, the native SwiftUI download manager that lives in your MacBook’s notch.

Slowrox started Lynx because the Mac didn’t have a download manager as capable as the ones Windows users rely on: one that speeds up large downloads, resumes them after a dropped connection and takes over downloads from the browser. Lynx does all of that on its own download engine, and it can also download just the part of a video you need instead of the whole file, pick exactly the files you need from a large Google Drive folder, and show your downloads and copied links in the MacBook’s notch, alongside a smart file Shelf, clipboard history, music with lyrics, Download Later and modules such as Calendar, Timer and Notes.

Lynx runs on your own computer. Downloads go straight from the website to your Mac, and Slowrox never sees what you download.

Lynx includes the download manager, Clip Download, Lynx Notch and a browser extension for Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc, Dia, Comet, Vivaldi, Opera and Chromium that pairs with Lynx by itself.

How Lynx is made

  • Private. Lynx needs no account. What you download stays on your computer, and Slowrox never sees it.
  • No ads. Lynx is funded by Pro licences. Slowrox doesn’t sell ads or data, and the free version stays useful.
  • Native. Lynx is a SwiftUI Mac app built for Apple silicon, signed and notarized by Apple, with standard Mac menus, shortcuts and notifications.
