📖 About
I originally wrote this project because the downloaders I tried weren't consistently downloading the highest-quality media available.
Fansly-DL retrieves a creator's timeline and chats, downloading the highest quality media your account is authorized to access.
It does not bypass subscriptions or paid content—your account must already have permission to view the media.
✨ Features
- 📷 Downloads the highest available image quality
- 🎥 Downloads videos
- 📁 Organises downloads by year/month
- 📅 Preserves upload dates in filenames
- 📊 Progress bars with download statistics
- 🔄 Resume partially downloaded files
- 🧹 Simple command-line interface
📑 Table of Contents
📦 Requirements
- Python 3.11+
- A Fansly account
- An active subscription to the creator whose content you want to download
🚀 Installation
Download using pip:
pip install Fansly-DL
