by Firefox user 13052962, 9 months agoBEST APP EVER, when it's working. And that's the problem, as it seems to be down more times then it's up and working (on YouTube, using Firefox).
One of the problems (other than it being down - on YouTube, using Firefox) is that it's just not there, no, Sorry, We're Working To Fix This, or nothing.
It's back now, as of the time of my writing this review, but, due to YouTube's obsession with not allowing Ad Blockers, I can Download Videos, but can't actually watch them on the site (I REALLY wish this would work on the Brave Browser, as the browser itself blocks YouTube ads without having to install an Ad Blocker extension - which is odd, as it uses the Google Chrome engine, that they are able to circumvent YouTube ads, without getting the videos blocked).
When it's working, the videos are great, and it's worth the upgrade to the paid version (as long as you keep in mind, that if it's YouTube videos you're looking to download, that you may be frustrated with the intermittent service you get - would have given it 5 stars if it wasn't for that).

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19628713, 5 hours agoPuts a giant watermark on the downloaded videos, uninstalled.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14504258, 8 hours agoIs perfect to download a serie or any content and with the smart naming feature, the task of naming is very easear
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15930469, 10 hours agoI can recommend this video only to those who download many videos in large batches and need a GUI, because ffmpeg downloads much faster, while having an ability to merge subtitles into a .mkv file among many other things.
- Rated 1 out of 5by --a, 13 hours agoVersion 10 is completely broken. Had to revert to the old one. V10 cannot download any large videos, esp. with typical free streaming servers which often have network issues. The older versions can deal with that (not perfectly, but eventually it works). There are lots more new bugs. And I really don't need the UI to be redesigned all the time, esp. when that breaks the most important feature.
