How to Unlock Advanced Image Download Features With a License
The free tier gets images onto your disk. The paid tier decides how clean they arrive. To unlock advanced image download features, you move from Free Unlimited to a PRO tier, and that single change opens filtering, renaming, processing, and deduplication that the free version keeps greyed out. Here is what unlocks and why each piece matters.
What a license unlocks
Activating a license through the Get License panel turns on the full advanced toolkit. When you unlock advanced image download features, the side panel and options page stop hiding their tabs and you gain access to the parts of the workflow that handle precision and output control.
- Filters: dimensions, file type, aspect ratio, domain include or exclude, and text-in-URL search.
- Renaming: the Filename Constructor with drag-and-drop tokens, a timestamp token, auto-incrementing sequences, and custom names from a CSV or TXT list.
- Organization: Auto Folders that build nested relative paths from the task folder, domain, and URL fragments, plus ZIP packaging.
- Processing: client-side resize, format conversion across JPEG, WebP, and PNG, EXIF stripping, and text or image watermarks.
- Quality control: the perceptual Duplicate Finder, the 404 Checker, and the Redirect Checker.
Two ways to unlock advanced image download features
There are two routes, and they serve different needs. Try PRO unlocks every advanced control for evaluation but caps a download task at one URL, which is perfect for testing. Licensed PRO unlocks the same features and removes the URL-count restriction, so you can run unrestricted URL counts per task. You switch between Free Unlimited and Try PRO from the tier selector, and you activate or renew a full license from the Get License panel. The difference is not which features you get, it is how much volume you can push through them.
Why these features change the workflow
Each unlocked tool removes a manual cleanup step. Filters mean you never download a folder of sprites and tracking pixels again. The Filename Constructor replaces cryptic server strings with names you can sort and search. Auto Folders mirror a site’s structure on disk automatically. Resize and convert deliver files that are already the right size and format. The Duplicate Finder catches visually identical images even when their URLs differ. Strung together, they turn a raw download into finished output without a second pass in another app.
Repeatability is part of the package
The advanced tier is not only about single jobs. Saved rules let you store settings and custom CSS selectors for a site and reapply them on the next visit. Scraper sessions let you save, resume, and compare runs. Tasks can be duplicated, scheduled, and exported to CSV as a reusable template. So unlocking the toolkit also unlocks the ability to make a tuned workflow repeatable instead of rebuilding it each time.
Getting started
Install Bulk Image Downloader From URL List, then use the tier selector to try the advanced controls in Try PRO mode on a single URL. When you are ready to unlock advanced image download features for full-volume work, activate a license from the Get License panel and your existing tasks and settings keep working, now with no URL-count cap and the entire toolkit live.
