is fast, is easy, aproooved for me

easiest way to save mp4 or mp3 files from YouTube, and it's free to use. Kudos to the creator

Fast and easy to use!, 4 stars because some times the download button does not appear. Otherwise I would give 5 stars.

Requires Full permissions to actually download including local file directories

ok

Yo! I just saw the update. Made a donation. I've gotten a lot of free usage out of this app and it's amazing that you've integrated the ability to have it work with demonetized videos. I only recently realized that. It's the only one that does, as far as I'm aware, and it really comes in clutch when I want to save a video but also I feel like being lazy and just want it in one click. It's also great if I'm using jdownloader and yt-dlp and having trouble with them (I'm constantly running into issues with YouTube-restricted videos, even with cookies login. Maybe I'm just a noob.)

Hear me out though, I really do appreciate you as a developer. I'm usually a huge douche about freemium and subscription-based models in general (Netflix was a disaster for the human race and all) and I've probably talked shit about it like I have with literally everything, but I do appreciate the fact that you're just one guy fighting to keep this thing afloat. I have to say, you've done a great job. When I'm not butthurt about that part, this is probably the best downloading extension out there. I gotta admit I haven't been keeping up-to-date, so I didn't get some of the more recent updates.

Considering what an absolute slimeball nightmare Google/YouTube is with this type of stuff, I feel for you, dude. They're constantly ramping up their degeneracy to sabotage our ability to view content how we please and restrict the tiny molecule of online freedom we have left. I cannot imagine the constant duty it must be to keep this thing working. I don't want to imagine. I respect you for doing it. I probably would too (mostly out of spite because fu,c.k them) but I can't code. So I admire it greatly.

Okay so yeah, so here's what I was gonna say. I don't do the subscription thing, but I can roll like this. I'll give you a tenner today because you're awesome and I underestimated you, the extension, and how hard you work. And whenever I see a new update, I'll throw something your way... A kind of "I'll make a lil donation here 'n there, and perhaps I log out and clear my cookies here 'n there" gentleman's agreement.

I would've done $20 today but I've got a b[wonderful woman who is so cute and awesome and brilliant and cool and smart and sexy and is possibly standing beside me rn]itch yapping in my ear to be more "fiscally responsible" or whatever lately, so this is my compromise.

Stay frosty. Stay strong. You keep goin'. Keep fightin'. Genuinely, though, being a one-man-gang AND keeping this unbroken is pretty rad. I bet they hate downloading extensions more than they do sponsor-blocking and dislike-returning combined (which makes me love using this even more).

Anyway, yeah, your efforts are really appreciated. Sorry if I've been mean in the past (I don't know if I have, but I'm mean a lot when I get surprise futtbucked by any type of limit.) I get it, though. Your work is recognized and I wish you well.

God bless, good tidings, xoxoxo, keep truckin', keep your stick on the rice, happy happy, merry birthmalloween and a happy new year. Take care, king.

Does one job and does it well, and that is being able to save youtube videos.

Video Download Helper used to be the King of YT downloads, but now limitations.... there is a new King

Easy YT Video Downloader has no limitations, it is indeed Fast and Easy, and even place a Download layout button to assist.

Update: unfortunately, reduced EYVD to 4 stars, as there is limitations after all, and now requesting "Pro" Licensing.... function wise, still great should I say.

Thanks for the app

great for archiving

funciona perfectamente , es rapida y segura, gran opción

Awesome extension. Been using it for years, and now I felt like it was time to donate, so I did. I'd encourage everyone to do the same, it's well worth it.

works perfect. 5 stars

I used this extension for more than a year. I'm using both the extension and the desktop version, with the desktop version being my go-to app, since it's more customizable. Here is what I experienced during this time:

- the extension worked every time I wanted to download a video. The downloads were fast, and there were no glitches (like, lack of sound) on the downloads;

- the extension (as well as its counterpart, the desktop app) is extremely easy to use;

- the developer quickly patches the extension/app whenever Goggle throws a curved ball (read makes a change in the YT service) in an attempt to stop video downloading;

- the developer is very responsive for requests for help: Recently, the desktop app stopped working due to a software (Python) dependence. On my request for help, the developer replied within a day with the solution. Now my desktop app works like before;

- the extension comes with the "Access to data on all websites" permission enabled by default on extension installation. It is a potential data mining feature. It may be legit (for example, to download a video that's embedded into a website), however, I prefer to disable it since I don't know what is its function. Better safe than sorry.
To disable it:
- go to Firefox's menu;
- select 'Extensions and Themes';
- select 'Easy Youtube Video Downloader Express' for your list of extensions;
- select 'Permissions and data'.

The one thing I wish was that the extension is open-source. An open-source (as opposed to a closed-source/proprietary) software allows third-party audits, ensuring the developer didn't insert some nefarious pieces of code in it.

I have downloaded too many add-ons for YouTube. This one is the real deal! Try yourself and donate if you can. >^..^<
