- Rated 3 out of 5by Ji, 3 days ago"Some sites hide their players from extensions."
The add-on was perfect, it was just working last night. I was appreciative of the service, and I still am. But now it doesn't work on any of the sites I need accessibility adjustments for. Why is there no way to override? What is the point?
I don't understand what the point of the great UI improvements, sounds and visual effects if you've reduced the core functionality of the extension? The privacy assurance is the reason I chose this extension over others, but if it doesn't work then I have no choice??? - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 20314523, 3 days ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Joe, 3 days agoWorks fine but I miss the old UI that was actually simple and minimalist
- Rated 5 out of 5by Melissayt, 4 days agoReally liking the new update. Love the new look, and it's great to see an extension that's simple and respects your privacy. Keep up the good work!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Nevako, 5 days agoI don’t know what other reviewers are talking about, but it works perfectly fine for me.
Edit: I REALLY love the new design btw... and the optional UI sound effects are a really nice touch, too. 😊Developer response

posted 5 days agoThanks for the feedback, and sorry it stopped working for you. Version 0.3 is out now and fixes several causes of exactly this, so please update, reload the tab, and give it another try. If the volume still doesn’t change, tell us which website and Firefox version you’re using, or use the Send Feedback button in the popup, and we’ll sort it out. Developer response
posted a month agoHi, we'd appreciate some additional details about what didn't work for you.
The current review doesn't give us enough informtion to identify the problem. If you could describe what you were trying to do and what happened, we can investigate it and work on improving the extension.
Thank you.- Rated 5 out of 5by Tunnelsnakes, 2 months ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Über, 4 months agoWorks, i can now hear my prime movies and shows on my pc built in audio speakers on my monitor. Only gave a 4star cuz im not sure why it requires access to my data or if its collecting said data. Addon says "doesnt require data collection" but doesnt say that it doesnt collect it.

posted 4 months agoThank you for the review and for sharing your feedback!
To reassure you: this extension does not collect, store, or access any of your personal data or browsing history. The permission notice you see is a standard Firefox requirement so the extension can interact with the audio on the page you are viewing.
This extension is designed to work entirely on your device. It does not include analytics, tracking, telemetry, or any form of data collection. - Rated 1 out of 5by marina, 5 months ago

posted 6 months agoHello, and thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Due to the way browser extensions like this one operate, there are certain technical limitations when it comes to boosting audio on some websites. This is not unique to our extension — if you try most other volume booster extensions on the market, you will likely encounter the same issue.
The problem is caused by DRM protections and the browser engine itself. Certain websites, including Bandcamp and other DRM-protected platforms, restrict how audio can be processed by extensions. The only way around these restrictions would be to bypass or break DRM protections, which is something we cannot do for legal reasons.
Because of this, the extension may not function correctly on heavily DRM-protected websites. However, it works properly on websites that do not enforce such strict DRM limitations. - Rated 5 out of 5by Cynical Fox, 6 months agoAlright, I was a little bit skeptical since many people bot their 5 stars, but I'll concede for genuine opinion, it really is as simple as just raising the limit.
Watching something on a streaming service felt like it was too low at max, this made it feel serviceable, so I'll give props to the developer(s), a legitimate 5 stars. - Rated 5 out of 5by aaseka, 7 months agodidn’t think it’d work but it actually does lol. super simple and just makes everything louder 👍
