Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I follow frustrated because we have to download the homebrews one by one, in addition I sometimes want to stop a download because my connection is slow is to want to resume it later.
As well as other stuff....

Describe the solution you'd like
Add a queue system, which you can organize, remove from the queue, be able to intervene the order between two homebrews.That even if the queue is running, be able to leave universal updater and that when you come back, The holding line picks up where it was.
And finally, make sure that when a download fails, and that we restart it, that it comes back where it was, for example if we were at 4Mb on 6Mb, that when we postpone downloading it remember where we were and restart at 4Mb.
I also wish I could see the download speed.
Also add a little animation at boot time when downloading the data, because I have the impression that the console is frozen. xd
And also being able to download the standby feed in standby mode would be great.
I would also like to see the battery, the time at the top, and also that the keyboard offers me suggestions just with the initial, and also see the place I have on my SD card in MB, because it is block on the 3DS ;P

Otherwise thank you very much for Universal-Updater, very convenient

1.) The queue system is already a feature request here: #55.

even if the queue is running, be able to leave universal updater and that when you come back, The holding line picks up where it was.

Not really possible and can potential cause corruptions, when you leave at a bad moment. Also the queue would be in RAM, and honestly, saving that into a file and loading it after a new start again sounds like the worst idea.

And finally, make sure that when a download fails, and that we restart it, that it comes back where it was, for example if we were at 4Mb on 6Mb, that when we postpone downloading it remember where we were and restart at 4Mb.

Not a good idea. That wouldn't even really work at all as well.

I also wish I could see the download speed.

I tried that with Universal-Updater v2.4.0 or so already, and it crashed randomly. Tho, no idea why so i removed that one.

Also add a little animation at boot time when downloading the data, because I have the impression that the console is frozen. xd

Could be maybe added in the future.

And also being able to download the standby feed in standby mode would be great.

Standby feed?

I would also like to see the battery, the time at the top

Could be maybe added in the future.

and also that the keyboard offers me suggestions just with the initial

Could be maybe added in the future, but afaik there was already an attempt and the keyboard did some odd suggestions there.

and also see the place I have on my SD card in MB, because it is block on the 3DS

Could be maybe added in the future.. but just use something like FBI, to show the amount of space tho..?

A yes and also, download the spritesheet only if it has changed size.

It only downloads the spritesheet, if the revision has changed of the UniStore. It is needed to properly display the icons for a revision upgrade.

Yess

Yes, we can, but I would have liked to see him with UU

And finally, to be able to resume a download would be really good, and also to be able to resume the waiting line later, to pause it... would be just as good, too bad, and I’m also following along thinking, it would be just as well that instead of having a little button for the screens, having a little preview or something, and also, for the keyboard, it would be really convenient.

I don't know what that "Standby feed" is, hence why i said "Standby feed?".

I won't work on Universal-Updater for the next months probably because i'm busy with other stuff and hence have no time for it. So any of those things won't be a thing soon.

And generally doing a pause and resume to downloads isn't really great too; doing that at a bad time could i think cause bad things. And the screenshots / previews are being downloaded and displayed from a PNG file, so doing that kind of preview will 100% cause extremely slowdowns which is not great.

When you close the console while in UU, who continues to download.

Several month ?
Okay, this is more than a shame, because Universal-Updater is great, too bad it evolves slowly.
Thank you anyway

Afaik that should already work?

Probably. Maybe someone else can handle the requests tho, while i'm busy. Also Universal-Updater to me is already great as is to be honest, i wouldn't say "evolves slowly".

Awesome, hope we get mine dealt with and someone in your group updates UU.

Thank you so much

Or, when the download fails, try to resend a request.

In the worst case, I remember that at the time, there was a free-shop, with someone of these options, even this one was unfortunately used for hacking, it was some very interesting stain, it would not be enough for you to use its code.

Otherwise, thanks for UU, there are homebrews that I had never seen.
