About Tidal Downloader

Your TIDAL subscription gives you access to millions of songs, but the moment you stop paying, that access disappears. Tidal Downloader changes the equation by letting you keep lossless copies of the music you've already paid for. Download tracks as FLAC or high-bitrate MP3 and build a permanent collection that's yours forever.

Every download captures the quality tier your subscription provides, so HiFi members get true lossless files. The extension works locally in your browser, processing audio without sending your credentials anywhere. Your privacy stays intact while you save tracks one by one or queue entire albums for sequential download.

Once saved, your files include artist, album, and track metadata for easy organization. Play them in any audio app, load them into DJ software, or archive them for offline listening. Tidal Downloader turns temporary streaming access into a library you can take anywhere.

Lossless files for DJing

I DJ on weekends and need FLAC files for my sets. TIDAL has the best catalog for electronic music but no export option. This extension fills that gap cleanly — lossless quality for the streams I saved.

Saved my library before switching services

Switched from TIDAL to another service but didn't want to lose access to my favorite albums. Downloaded everything important before canceling. Clean metadata tags too.

Album downloads are smooth

The album download feature is excellent. Queue up an entire album and let it run. Each track saves with proper numbering and artist info. Very well designed.
