Open Ripkie: on first launch it installs the components it needs to download.
Updates arrive on their own, inside the app.
What’s new in this version
Fixed: the download engine could no longer be installed or updated
If a download engine update fails, Ripkie keeps using the version that already works
Settings › Engine: the button says what it will do (Install, Try Again or Update), and "Use System Version" only appears when that version actually works
Fixed: "Use Managed Version" sometimes needed a second click
In the choice window you can pick the folder to save to, even a different one for each video
Videos for channel members only, private or removed now show the reason and are not selected
Fixed: with "Audio only" as the shared quality, a video quality chosen for a single video downloaded only the audio
