Everything between pasting a link and a tidy folder, and nothing you don’t need.

Sign in, right here

Some sites only show their pictures to signed-in people. Sign in from Settings and Still Heart uses your account for that site.

Nothing saved twice

A small local record remembers what you have, so running the same album again only fetches what’s new.

  • Folders by site, author, album or date
  • Name files how you like
  • A library of everything you’ve saved

A note from Inigo

Your pictures stay on your computer, and your sign-ins stay there too. There are no ads and nothing to buy, and there won’t be. If a site stops working or something’s broken, write to me. I read everything.

Questions

Is it free?

Yes, completely: no ads, no subscriptions and no paid extras.

What does it work with?

The sites gallery-dl supports. The Sites tab in the app lists them, with an example link for each.

Why does Pixiv ask for a refresh token?

Pixiv doesn’t accept ordinary cookies from download tools, only a token from its own sign-in. Open Settings, Accounts, and choose Sign in next to Pixiv. Still Heart gets the token for you, and you never have to see it.

Is my password safe?

You type it into the site’s own page, in a window, and Still Heart never sees it. It keeps only the session the site gives back, on your computer. Sign out deletes it.

What if a site won’t let me sign in here?

Some sites refuse sign-ins from app windows. Sign in with your own browser instead and pick it under Other ways to sign in, or use a cookies.txt file.

Does it get past paywalls?

No. It only sees what your own account can see. It doesn’t bypass paywalls, DRM or site bans. You need the right to save what you download, and a site’s own rules still apply.

Where do the files go?

Into a downloads folder beside the app, or any folder you choose in Settings.

Does it need Python?

No. It’s a single file. gallery-dl is inside, and Still Heart can update it for you.
