Welcome to latte ☕️

Download Anything. Instantly.

latte is a lightweight, native macOS menu bar app designed to make downloading video and audio from over 1,000+ websites as seamless as possible.

Browser Authentication (Restricted Content): You can now download age-restricted, private, or login-required videos (like native Reddit videos or private Instagram Reels/Stories). Simply select your daily browser in Settings (Chrome, Firefox, Brave, or Edge), and latte will securely use your active session to fetch the video. (Note: Chrome is the heavily tested and officially verified browser for this feature).
Smart Auto-Dismiss: The latte panel now behaves like a true macOS native menu—clicking anywhere outside the window will automatically close it.
Pin Window Toggle: Working on a large batch of links? Turn on the new "Keep Window Open" toggle in Settings to pin latte to your screen.
Modern Codec Support: Completely overhauled the Format Priority engine. latte now natively supports modern, high-efficiency codecs including AV1, WebM, MKV, ALAC, and Vorbis.
Hide Unused Formats: You can now click the "Eye" icon next to any format in Settings to hide it from your main dropdown, keeping your UI clean without permanently deleting the option.

Instagram Stories: Private IG Stories can now be successfully downloaded! However, because Instagram does not provide standard title metadata for Stories, latte will display nothing — just click download and it will work as expected.
Private Facebook Videos: Currently, downloading private Facebook videos will result in a "Cannot parse data" error. This is a known limitation of the underlying yt-dlp engine. Public Facebook videos still work perfectly.
Safari Support Removed: Due to strict macOS Sandboxing permanently blocking third-party apps from reading Safari cookies (without intrusive Full Disk Access requirements), Safari has been removed from the browser authentication list to ensure a smooth user experience.

Restored "Best (MP4)": Due to high demand for QuickTime, iMovie, and AirDrop compatibility, the default MP4 fallback has been restored as the top default priority.
Self-Healing Configurations: Upgrading from v0.1.0? latte now automatically cleans up deprecated format configurations and gracefully merges new codecs into your saved lists.
JSON Corruption Fix: Fixed a critical pipeline bug where browser cookie log outputs (like "Extracting 259 cookies...") would corrupt the video metadata stream, causing valid links to falsely report "Could not fetch info".
Smarter Error Handling: Added human-readable error messages for authentication failures and locked browser databases.
