- Rated 1 out of 5by Matthew, 3 months agoLeaves a giant QR code demanding $$$. Corporations have sucked my wallet dry with their greed in the last 5 years, frankly I just can't be bothered anymore. Record with OBS, use 4Kvideodownloader, I don't care but I'm not paying for this!

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18686871, 3 months agoI cannot vouch for this. It puts a gigantic watermark on your downloaded video unless you pay for a "lifetime" license, with no assurance that the extension will continue to work as different services change their API.
- Rated 1 out of 5by meehcko, 3 months agoAdds a gigantic QR code watermark that takes a fifth of the screen. You're expected to pay $30+ for a "perpetual" license, while these extensions often keep breaking or become inoperable due to services changing their APIs

- Rated 1 out of 5by Ksko1900, 4 months agoAfter what I’ve experienced, buying another license from this company simply doesn’t make sense.
There’s too much unpredictability regarding browser support, product stability, and transparency in licensing.
A “lifetime license” means nothing if core features can vanish overnight because of external decisions, effectively rendering the purchase worthless. - Rated 1 out of 5by GateOfShadows, 4 months agoHave to install additional software to make it work. Plus, now you have to pay $30 or you will have a huge QR code persistent in your video. Completely useless.
- Rated 1 out of 5by dylan, 4 months agoOne star for converting qr code. even if there will be 1 euro i will not pay it because it was free and now searching for money it is not problem to pay but from zero to 20eu.. Why author is not asking politly for donation, im monthly subscriber/donator for many platforms, like Archive.org, etc, thanks but not thanks.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19519608, 4 months agoThe software was free and has always worked fine. However they added a watermark. The watermark however also was applied to some videos downloaded PRIOR this update. I don't think the software should be able to do that.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17051437, 4 months agoConverting video to mp3 requires installing additional software and after that tells that I need to pay 20 euro for converter license.
- Rated 1 out of 5by js, 4 months agoThis addon adds noticeable delay to every youtube page loaded. When scrolling youtube shorts, this extension alone adds delay before UI is responsive, and VERY poor performance after quickly scrolling past 2+ videos. After attempting to scroll through 3+ youtube shorts, the videos will begin to buffer, not load, and firefox memory and cpu utilization spike for a moment before catching back up.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19018211, 4 months agoSticks a huge QR code on the video unless you pay $30
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12179736, 4 months agoits asking to download an external program it seems pretty sketchy
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19512354, 4 months agoKeep asking to download other software, watermarked video, asking 35$ for downloading.
Couldn't believe Mozilla Firefox recommend this garbage. - Rated 1 out of 5by Leslie, 4 months agoThis used to be a great extension. Now it sticks a big qr code on the video and wants money and a conversion installer. bye bye
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12680106, 4 months agoMore than 70% of YouTube videos are NOT downloaded, which makes this extension pretty useless!

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17472807, 4 months agoafter installing they tell you, than an additional installer is required, which is an absolute no-go. video downloaders like this (even stream downloaders) don't require such normally. very shady.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Joyce, 4 months agoFirst they want you to install a sketchy software to "co-work" with this addon and now they plaster a qr code visible in your video when u download it, so you have to buy a license key for around 20€ to remove it. Trash addon at this point.
