Library

The library preserves download history as a searchable archive with filters, collections, recovery actions, and plugin-powered follow-up workflows.

Download history as a working library

The Library is more than a finished-jobs list. It acts as a searchable working record of downloads across sources, formats, and workflows, so users can reopen items, review summaries, inspect tags, and trigger follow-up actions from one place.

Youwee library page
Library keeps downloads queryable by source, media type, date, and other metadata, which turns the app into an archive instead of a disposable queue.

Filters, tags, and collections

The toolbar supports text search, source filters, media type filters, date ranges, format filters, tags, and collections. That matters once users move past a handful of downloads and need a reliable way to slice the archive.

Optional library detail capture

Capture the exact UI state below so this page can show the missing workflow detail without ambiguity.

  • Show the filters, tags, and collections panel expanded so the advanced retrieval model is visible in the docs.

Built-in audio playback

Library is also a convenient place to revisit audio downloads. When an entry is a playable audio item, you can start playback directly inside Youwee instead of opening another music player or file browser first.

This is especially useful when you use Youwee for podcasts, lectures, music, or long-form spoken content and want to quickly preview, resume, or move through saved audio from the same archive screen.

Recovery and re-download actions

Library entries keep enough context to support recovery workflows, including cases where the local file has been removed. That makes the page valuable for long-term media management instead of only post-download confirmation.

Plugin actions on history items

The library can also surface plugin-contributed actions in the `history.item` context. That lets plugins refresh summaries, sync to external systems, or run maintenance actions directly from the record users are already inspecting.
