Share → RDM
In Chrome or any other app, tap Share on a link or page and pick RDM. The download runs in RDM, not in the browser.
Android app
Get RDM for Android
The same many-connection engine, on your phone. Share a link to RDM from any app, let its browser find the videos on a page, and keep downloading with the screen off.
Not on Google Play yet — here's why. No account needed.
On a computer? Open rdm.sherazahmad.com/android on your phone instead. Because RDM comes straight from this site rather than Google Play, Android asks a couple of extra questions the first time. The steps below walk you through them.
Install it in about a minute
Android 8.0 or newer. Phones and tablets.
-
Download the APK
Tap the button on your phone. An APK is simply the install file for an Android app.
Download the APK -
Open it
When it finishes, tap the Download complete notification. Missed it? Open the Files app, go to Downloads and tap the RDM file.
-
Allow "Install unknown apps"
The first time, Android asks whether the app you opened the file from — your browser or Files — may install apps. Tap Settings, switch on Allow from this source, then go back and tap Install.
This only applies to that one app, and you can switch it off again once RDM is installed.
-
If Play Protect appears: More details → Install anyway
Play Protect may say it doesn't recognise the app. That's because RDM isn't on Google Play yet, so Google has no record of it — it's an "unknown app" notice, not a virus detection. Tap More details, then Install anyway.

Open RDM and allow notifications
Tap Open, or find RDM in your app drawer. When it asks to send notifications, tap Allow — that's what lets downloads keep running in the background, with a progress notification you can check at a glance.
How to use it on your phone
Chrome on Android doesn't take extensions, so RDM works a little differently here.
Copy a link, RDM offers it
Copied a download link somewhere? Open RDM and it offers to grab it — no pasting needed.
A browser that finds videos
Open a page in RDM's built-in browser. A floating counter shows how many videos it found — tap it and pick the one you want.
HLS streams saved as MP4
Streamed video (HLS, .m3u8) is fetched chunk by chunk over several connections and saved as one MP4 you can play anywhere.
Keeps going in the background
Switch apps or lock the screen. Downloads carry on, and a progress notification shows how far along they are.
Files land in Download/RDM
Finished files go to Download/RDM, so they show up in Gallery and Files like any other download.
FAQ
Android questions.
Which phones does it run on?
Any phone or tablet with Android 8.0 (Oreo) or newer. RDM is free during early access — no ads, no account.
Why isn't RDM on Google Play?
Not yet. RDM is new and in early access, and getting an app listed on Google Play takes a while. Until it's there, this site is the official place to get it — which is also why Android shows the extra "unknown apps" and Play Protect prompts during install.
Only download RDM from rdm.sherazahmad.com. Copies from other sites aren't ours.
How can I check the APK is genuine?
Compare the file's SHA-256 checksum with the one we published for the latest version:
Shown here once the first version is published.
How do I get updates?
The app tells you when a new version is out. Download the new APK from this page and install it over the current one — your downloads and settings stay where they are.
Does it download from YouTube, or protected streams?
No, same as on Windows. RDM doesn't download from YouTube and never bypasses DRM — streams protected by DRM, like most paid streaming services, are left alone.
What does the app send, and to whom?
No account, no analytics, no tracking. Files come straight from the site you're downloading from to your phone — they never pass through our servers. The only thing the app asks our server is whether there's a new version. Details in the privacy policy.
