GigaGet (download manager for Android)

Tedious to use. No way to import a list of URLs to download. Must enter files one by one by hand.

No control over when it downloads. Starts immediately when there is an internet connection. This can be costly for people on measured rate internet connections. Stop and Go buttons needed. And it should start in a stopped state.

When entering a new file to the list, the previous file shows a bogus “error” status.

Error messages are printed simply as “Error”. No information.

There is an embedded browser. What for?

What files are already present the download directory because another app put them there, GigaGet lists those files with “100%”. How does GigaGet know those files that another app put there are complete when gigaget does not even have URL for them (thus no way to check the content-length)?
