CLUSTER DESKTOP-TIKTOK-VIDEOS · 19 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2023-08-06
Desktop video downloader apps
This cluster consists of desktop applications that download videos and audio from platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Twitter. Entries before the index start appear sporadically across five distinct months (2021-01, 2023-08, 2025-12, 2026-01, 2026-04), indicating a thin and irregular dated history rather than a clear trend. The traction leader is multiplatform-downloader with 20 stars, followed by tik-tok-save (5 stars) and X-Track (1 star).
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
