One tray icon. Every tool you actually use.

About Spark Tray

Spark Tray is a free utility for Windows 10 and 11 that provides a set of media-related tools accessible from the system tray. It enables users to download videos, extract audio, process bulk downloads, remove image backgrounds, and transcribe media files, all running locally on the user's machine. The tool does not require an account or subscription, and no data is sent to the cloud, ensuring privacy. Spark Tray is funded by sharing a small amount of idle network bandwidth through a vetted partner, with clear disclosure and opt-out by uninstalling.
