Movies Downloader 1.3.0.0
Windows Phone users have the possibility to take their favorite movies with them or even search and play them on the spot thanks to a specialized utility that goes by the name of Movies Downloader.
Unadorned interface, designed for practicality
This application has a relatively plain GUI that is not too rich insofar as the appealing elements of graphical design are concerned.
The layout is made to be easy of use, but there is no explanation for the many buttons displayed inside the main screen, so even though some are pretty suggestive, others have to be tried in order to discover their functionality.
There are plenty of nuisances inside this app as you will be plagued by hordes of ads and prompts that ask you to rate Movies Downloader or try out other utilities.
Search and play your preferred movies
The utility has a simple and effective search engine that allows you to seek for the titles you are interested in and get relevant results in a few instants. There is a filtering option you can use if you want to view the results which include only HD videos.
For optimal playback you will have to rotate the screen in landscape mode, but it works well in portrait orientation as well and it even allows you to use the query and browsing features to go through the various sections of the app without interrupting the playback.
Unfortunately, only 80% of each movie can be played without purchasing the Pro version or installing and running other apps from the same developer.
Download videos and add them to playlists for later viewing
As its name clearly suggests, this app is ready to help you transfer all the selected videos for offline viewing. The movies are kept inside the application's own storage, so they cannot be accessed otherwise.
Adding the favorite movies to the bookmarks list is also possible, while Movies Downloader also supports the creation of video playlists, so you can better organize your collection.
Several concurrent downloads are supported, which means you can have multiple movies transferred simultaneously without any issues.

The application eats up the energy at a very fast rate as the power consumption soars on prolonged use, draining the battery quickly. |

Compatibility10
Most Windows Phone users will be able to enjoy Movies Downloader onto their handsets as it only needs version 7.5 or higher of the operating system to run well. |
