Important
As of October 20, 2024, the Cobal API now requires authentication for api usages. Starting from version 0.5, Osmium will require you to set up a custom instance with an API key to continue using the service. This is because i dont want to be classified as a bad actor in the Cobal community. My goal with this project has always been to simplify file downloads on iOS devices via Cobal. For instructions on creating a custom instance, please refer to this guide
Compatibility
Osmium is designed to support every device running iOS/iPadOS 14.2 or later.
Note: The user experience may vary depending on the specific device model and its performance capabilities, and is heavily influenced by the network download speed!
Disclaimer
As stated in the Cobalt API Repository:
Cobalt is NOT a piracy tool and cannot be used as such.
It can only download free, publicly accessible content.
Such content can be easily downloaded through any browser's dev tools.
Therefore, Osmium is not a piracy tool and will never be used as one.
