- Faster download speeds with less segments for both HTTP and FTP protocols, especially on high-latency connections.
- Due to improved performance, for new installations, "Minimal segment size" option is bigger for each "Connection type" over 6Mbps and "Default number of segments" is set up to 4 segments at iGetter Options, Acceleration panel. Note that if you use more than 3-4 segments, speed may decrease with this version.
- "20Mb Cable/DSL" is the default connection type for new installations (set at iGetter Options, Acceleration panel).
- "Minimal segment size" can be set over 65535 KB (which was the max value in previous versions).
- Show actually used cipher and TLS version of an HTTPS and FTPS connection, in the Segments panel.
- Show the Welcome message of FTP servers (i.e. server name and its version) in the Segments panel.
- Improved compatibility with more FTP servers as vsFTPd. Default "Data connection" type for FTP over SSL (Explicit) connections is now "Private/Clear data connection". Most FTPS servers allow only encrypted data connection (PROT P command used in the TLS control connection), so you can choose "Clear data connection" (PROT C, which allows faster downloading), only with certain servers i.e. CompleteFTP.
- Added support for "ftpes://" scheme in Site Manager.
- Added "Elapsed time" after the "Speed" value in File Info panel of completed downloads.
- Fixed the "Speed" field (of File Info panel), to appear even if "Elapsed time" is less than 1 sec.
- Fixed Zip Preview function of uncompleted downloads, that returned empty list on first click of "Preview Zip" button.
- Updated iGetter Extension for Chrome and Firefox, based on Manifest V3 platform. It requires Chrome v102+ and Firefox v115+.
- iGetter Extension v3 supports several keyboard shortcuts:
1. Disable integration, until closing the browser (Ctrl+Q)
2. Enable integration (Ctrl+Comma)
3. Disable integration (Ctrl+Period)
- If you select a browser in HTTP User Agent ComboBox (iGetter Options, Advanced panel) and also use iGetter Extension v3 in that browser, then extension will auto-update the User Agent string with the one of your browser.
- You can use Site Explorer to recursively download whole FTP directories.
- If a new (HTTP or FTP) download has the same name, size and date as an existing file in the same location, iGetter will not download it to avoid duplication. For best results, you should turn on "Preserve original file dates" at iGetter Options, Advanced panel.
- Added a file integrity check using XMD5 or XCRC commands, if supported by the FTP server. iGetter adds a comment <>MD5 (or =MD5) when server checksum is different (or equal) to MD5 of completed download.
- Added CRC-32 in addition to MD5 and SHA256 checksums of completed downloads.
- Added support for PRET (PRE Transfer) command (in passive mode), used in distributed FTP servers.
- Added support for TLS v1.3 and v1.2 session resumption, if supported by the FTP server. TLS session reuse also speeds up the data connection handshake.
- Improved compatibility with FileZilla Server, Bitvise SSH Server (FTPS option) and CompleteFTP
- iGetter will automatically detect when a user folder on FTP server is mounted (chroot) to root "/" folder. For example there is a user setting in CompleteFTP to set user Home folder as root "/". iGetter will work if this option is off (default) or if you turn it on.
- Added support for /~user/dir/ and /Home/user/dir/ FTP links, that will work with FTP servers, which user home folder is not mounted to root "/" (i.e. CompleteFTP).
- Added support for MDTM (FTP) command to get UTC filetime, required to save correct file date in NTFS. If MDTM command is not supported, iGetter will use the LIST command, that returns time in server local time, that miss time zone and can't be converted to UTC. In both cases file time in Site Explorer is fixed to show correct time.
- Added support for ftpes:// scheme for FTP over SSL (Explicit) download links. Inside the application, iGetter will use ftps:// scheme for FTP over SSL (Implicit or Explicit), but if you copy or export URLs they will have ftpes:// prefix for FTP over SSL (Explicit) links and ftps:// for FTP over SSL (Implicit).
- "Clear data connection" option at iGetter Options, Connections panel is now "Clear/Private data connection". iGetter will try to use an un-encrypted data connection (i.e. CompleteFTP), but if the FTP server refuses this (i.e. FileZilla Server), it will use an encrypted data connection. Clear data connection speeds up file downloading, while control connection with login and other sensitive data is always encrypted.
- "AUTH TLS" is the default option at iGetter Options, Connections panel. "AUTH SSL" that doesn't send PBSZ and PROT commands is still available for legacy FTPS servers.
- Added support for more than one filenames in "Content-Disposition: attachment". iGetter will prefer the Extended notation "filename*=" field. Also iGetter will decode percent-encoded names in normal notation "filename=".
- iGetter will check HTTP redirects, to prevent infinite loop, if server redirects to the same URL. Often such error can be fixed if you turn off "Send Referer" option in "Item Settings" dialog.
- Fixed a crash in FTPS protocol that occurred only in v3.1.0.

The "Other" button is for SeaMonkey as well as Opera, Vivaldi and other Chromium based browsers.
- Added support for Microsoft Edge, Firefox v67+, SeaMonkey, Chrome v80+, Opera and Vivaldi cookies.
- Added support for default browser cookie option (in Item Settings dialog), different than the default browser. Cookie option will be set to the browser selected as User-Agent in iGetter options. The existing logic is preserved if "iGetter" option is set as User-Agent.

Since Safari 12+ removed support for NPAPI plugins, and didn't introduce new extension API for download observing (i.e. when a download link is clicked and the download is started in the browser), currently no such functionality is present in the new extension.
- Moved to Digital River GmbH as our e-commerce partner, since their subsidiary eSellerate (our previous partner) is being closed down.
- Fixed an issue with the recently notarized Firefox and Chrome, which won't transfer downloads to iGetter through the iGetterExtension.

- Fixed an issue that iGetterMessagingHost doesn't identify Firefox, when transferring downloads to iGetter.
- Optimized for Firefox v60+.
- Added support for TLS 1.1 and 1.2 when performing SSL communications, which is a requirement for most sites now. Integrated the SSL support into iGetter, so it won't be dependable on macOS and third party libraries.

- Implemented a workaround for an issue on macOS 10.13 High Sierra, which could lead to completed downloads still opened in iGetter, when double-clicked, etc.

- Reworked iGetter Extension for Chrome/Chromium using the build-in extension API to send all downloads to iGetter. This method replaces the functionality implemented previously by the iGetter Plugin (NPAPI), since NPAPI support was removed from Chrome as of version 45. The above operation can be temporarily disabled with the new context menu command "Disable integration" added by iGetter Extension for Chrome.
- Improved installation of iGetter Extension for Safari 9.0+, due to changed requirements for updating local extensions in Safari 9. Now iGetter will also need to launch Safari for extension updates, in addition to initial extension installation required since Safari 8.
- Improved both iGetter Plugin and iGetterScriptablePlugin for Safari, to read HttpOnly cookies in addition to the already available session and standard cookies.
- Implemented a workaround for the issue introduced in OS X 10.11 El Capitan, which in certain circumstances won't update properly the logical end of file, that could lead to improperly truncated files after a system restart. In iGetter this could manifest in an error that local file download has different size from the remote file.
- Reworded the browser integration options in both iGetter Preferences -> Integration and Installation dialogs, to better reflect the new browser integration functionality. The new option "Install iGetter Browser Extension (add contextual menus, watch for URL clicks)" replaces the previously worded "Add contextual menu support for Internet Browsers". Also "Install iGetter Browser Plugin (Safari and browsers with NPAPI support)" replaces "Integrate with Internet Browsers (watch for URL clicks)".
- Changed "Integrate with Internet Browsers" command from the Tools menu with "Install iGetter Browser Plugin" command, to better reflect its functionality in accordance with the changes in iGetter Preferences -> Integration tab panel.

- Digitally signed with version 2 signature for conformance with Gatekeeper on OS X 10.10 Yosemite and OS X 10.9.5.
