Please also add a tray icon whenever the app is closed so that one doesn't have to start it again.

  • An option in the settings to choose what to do when the user closes the app(minimize to tray or quit)
  • Bring the app's window into focus whenever a download is added(can be toggled from the settings)
  • Notifications via the tray icon whenever the download is complete

@gmastergreatee Thanks for your advice.

  • Since this app is developed using Electron, some system specific features can not be accomplished. I can not keep app alive when you close the app on Windows.
  • I will see if I can detect and bring the app's window into focus when a download is added from outside
  • Completion notification is on my to-do list

Well, I think, for creating the tray icon, the details in the below link should suffice.
http://electron.rocks/proper-tray-icon/

As for the case while closing the app window, one could detect the event(as shown in one of the comment-replies of above link), prevent it, add a menu-item in the tray icon(to show the window when clicked) & then just hide the window.

@gmastergreatee You are right. I will implement this when I get my windows computer.
