- General lock code to prevent unauthorized access to the application : TBD
- Per task destination folder/speeds/ratio setting (needs DSM3.1 or +) : in progres (90% done)
- On iPad, have a web browser closer to the native safari : TBD

- Clean Downloads tab content when server is selecting another Synology server : TBD
- Cancel refresh requests when going background (to prevent "request failed" message when comming back to the app) : TBD

Hi,

I downloaded the app, and it seems to really do what it says. I can definitely recommend it.
I especially like the SSL-support, all Synology Apps should support this (DS Photo and DS Music don't!).

I am hoping you will keep developing/updating the app, so if for instance it doesn't work with the upcoming firmware 3.0, you will correct this?

Great that you like it :)
For what I know it should work with fw 3.0 but i'm waiting to get the beta to check/correct any issue with it ;)

Don't worry, I'm already working on improving SynoDS ;) Some nice features will be available in next release !
And don't forget to write a little review on the appStore :)

I have been playing around with Syno DS for a few days now.
Syno DS i really fast, easy to use and it has a nice interface.

It's really a great app and it couldn't be easier to manage your downloads with Synology Diskstation.
I'm pretty sure this will be a "killer" app among other synology users with an iPhone or an iPad.
Just give it a try, it's definitely worth the money.

Keep up the good work, and thanks for a great application :)
