- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18953992, 3 months agoDoes not work. It is full of annoyances and distractions. Sometimes a download dialog pops up, but the mp4 file is empty. People, much better to use a 3rd party YT client like NewPipe, trust me.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Peter, 3 months agoAmazingly simple, works seamlessly and downloads quickly. Love it!
For everyone complaining about the tool not working right now, you need to check Dishita's page at yourvideofile dot org slash v24 underscore temp (Not sure if putting a link in here will get me in trouble with Firefox) but that page on his website contains the current temporary fix for the issue which has been caused by Youtube and Google's constant needless changes to the platform. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19035241, 3 months agoThis used to be the best downloader, but now there's a complicated "patch" that almost requires the user to be proficient in code just to use. That's anything but user friendly, hence all the 1 star reviews.
Too bad, I "bought the creator a coffee" a couple of times right before the latest crash and I'm regretting it. If you wanted to download anything above 720p they'd make you pay for it with a "donation"; I wouldn't suggest falling for that scam given the instability of this addon.Developer response
posted 2 months agoHi! No complicated patches needed anymore — v24.1 is a straightforward update that fixes the download issue caused by a YouTube algorithm change. Just update the addon normally and it should work again, no coding required! Developer response

posted 2 months agoHi! Video downloads should work again with v24.1 — a YouTube algorithm change was blocking them. Please update the addon and try downloading a video again. MP3 downloads now also require a pro upgrade as YouTube changed how those work. Hope this helps! - Rated 1 out of 5by Damicuis, 3 months ago

Please update and you should get proper video files. Sorry for the experience! - Rated 1 out of 5by RedSoxGab, 3 months agoAs usual, does not work. Has not worked for more than a year. What a waste of money. DO NOT INSTALL!
Developer response
posted 2 months agoHi RedSoxGab! We hear you and it's genuinely been broken — a YouTube algorithm change caused it. But v24.1 just dropped and it works again. It's completely free, so no money involved. Please try the update before writing it off entirely! - Rated 1 out of 5by Mag el Ronh, 3 months agodoes not work under Arch Linux. downloaded files are always size of 0 byte

posted 2 months agoHi Rado Rendez! That 0kb file problem is now fixed in v24.1 — a YouTube algorithm change caused it. Please update and downloads should be full-sized and working again. Would really appreciate an updated review!- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 19717894, 3 months ago

posted 2 months agoHi Ralyn! No second payment needed — the fix in v24.1 is a free update. The 0 downloads were caused by a YouTube algorithm change, not a paywall. Please update and pro features should work properly again. Thank you for your previous support!- Rated 4 out of 5by NeilParsons, 3 months agoYouTube is a mess... People telling it's fault of this extension doesn't know the real truth. Try downloading anything from YouTube with different tools and you may find most of them doesn't work, too. Instead of publishing harassment arguments against their developers, think twice before saying anything.
Haven't you read the latest warning from Easy YouTube Video Downloader website from their support section? Read it again:
" I'm aware that the web extension is producing 0-byte downloads or files that won't open. This is because YouTube has again changed codes that breaks downloads.
I've worked around the new restrictions and fixed the issue caused by YouTube's latest code changes. Version 24 (v24) has been submitted to Mozilla for approval. Until then, please use the temporary fix below to get downloads working again.
Get the temporary fix from here: (see it at their official site)" - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17503961, 3 months ago
