Grabbit v1.0

Right-click save gives you a blurry crop. Grabbit gets the original.

Social networks ship a shrunken copy to your screen and keep the real file on their servers. Screenshot it and you have made a photo of a photo.

Both panels are the same photograph. The left one is the file the page hands you, shown at the size you actually wanted it.

Hover. Click. Done.

There is no interface to learn. Put your pointer over any picture or clip and a small button shows up in the corner. Click it and the file is in your Downloads folder before you have moved the mouse away.

·The corner number is how many slides come with it.

Drawn at the size it ships: a 34px square of paper, no radius, one inked glyph. Nothing is added to the page you are looking at.

The actual file Not the 240px version the page is showing you. The one that got uploaded, at the size it was uploaded at.

Names you can search Set the pattern once and every file lands named the same way.

Carousels come down whole Ten-slide post, one click. You get all ten, numbered in order, including the ones you have not swiped to yet.

The whole page at once Open the popup, hit Save all, and every image and clip on the page comes down together.

It remembers Every save lands in a local library you can search. Click any entry to reopen the post it came from, months later.

No more photo (3).jpg Grabbit checks that library before it downloads, so you stop collecting three copies of the same thing.

Grabbing a lot, without getting yourself blocked.

Scroll a profile, hit start, and Grabbit works through what has loaded. One file at a time, with a pause between each. If the site starts pushing back, it waits longer, and if it keeps pushing back, it stops and tells you instead of hammering away.

There is a ceiling on every run. That is deliberate. The tools that promise to vacuum up an entire account in one go are the ones that get your account throttled, and you are the one who pays for that, not the tool.

Each mark is one file. The tools that promise to vacuum a whole account have no right-hand side to this diagram.

Skips anything already in your library, so a second run is cheap
Pause or stop it at any point
Tells you what saved, what you already had, and what failed

Nothing leaves your browser.

Most free downloaders are a funnel. You paste a link, their server fetches it, and now they have a list of everything you have ever saved. Grabbit has no server, so there is no list.

No account, no email, no signup
No analytics and no telemetry
Nine sites out of the box, and any other only if you say so
Every line of code ships in the package

Read the privacy policy — it is short, because there is not much to say.

What it will not do.

Two things, said plainly, so you are not disappointed after installing.

No YouTube

Their terms do not allow it, and extensions that try get pulled from the store. Better to ship something that stays up than promise something that vanishes.

Some video is streamed

A few players never hand the browser a complete file. Where that happens Grabbit saves the cover frame and tells you that is what it did, rather than handing you a broken file.

Why does it need permissions at all?

Four: downloads, storage, activeTab and scripting — plus access to the nine sites listed above, and nothing else at install.

Anywhere else, Grabbit is switched off until you turn it on. Click the icon on a site you want it for, Chrome asks whether to allow that one address, and it works there from then on. You can see every site you have turned on, and turn any of them back off, in the extension’s own settings.

That is the whole reason it does not simply ask for every website at install. It never reads a page you have not personally allowed.

Get it.

Grabbit is in review for the Chrome Web Store. This page goes live before the listing does, so the button below is not wired up yet.

Coming to the Web Store Works in Chrome, Edge, Brave and Arc.
