- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18953992, a month 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 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19035241, a month 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 17 days 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 17 days agoBok Vinko! Popravak je tu — v24.1 rješava problem s 0 byte datotekama uzrokovan promjenom YouTube algoritma. Molimo ažuriraj dodatak i preuzimanje bi trebalo raditi normalno. Javite nam kako je prošlo!- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19696547, a month agoDoesn't seem to download videos, I was able to download songs but no videos.

posted 17 days 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, a month ago

For refund queries please contact us through the support page and we'll make it right. Sorry for the trouble! - Rated 1 out of 5by Dewayne, a month agoThis is a PAID extension!!!!! You ONLY get 128k OR 256k MP3's without paying for and extension that MAY or MAYNOT work for 4k YouTube videos, because there is NO WAY TO TEST IT WITHOUT THEM GETTING YOU CREDIT CARD FIRST!!!!!!!
BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!!!!
This LOOKS like a SCAM!!!!!!!!Developer response
posted 17 days agoHi Dewayne! Standard video downloads (MP4) are free — only 1080p and HQ MP3 need a pro upgrade since YouTube stopped providing direct links for those formats. v24.1 is now out and fixes downloads. Please try again and standard MP4 downloads should work at no cost! Developer response
posted 17 days agoHi evan! The 0bit file issue is fixed in v24.1 — YouTube's algorithm change caused it. Please update and it should download properly this time.

Please update the extension and give it another try — downloads should be working properly now. If it works for you, we'd really appreciate if you could update your review! 😊 - Rated 1 out of 5by John k, a month agoI just tried your updated version v24 temp, and the first video downloaded 720 with the correct size as on your drop down, but tried again with different video, said 720, 22MB but when downloaded was only 8 MB 720, So you still haven't fixed it yet !!!!
I made a donation a few years ago for 720 & 1080 downloads, and all worked well, but not now, is says its downloaded and processing, but after 1 hour still the same and nothing downloaded to downloads folder or anywhere on my PC. Very disappointed, and don't know why you haven't fixed it yet as this has been going on for months, Please fix or I will have to remove it from my Win 11 PC. Regards John. PS you never reply to these comments, why !!!Developer response

posted 17 days agoHey! We've just pushed out version 24.1 which should fix things up. Please update the extension and try again — it should be back to working. If it does the job, an updated review would mean a lot to us! 🙏- Rated 1 out of 5by BeatrixKujara, a month agoAtm. I'm writing the review, this addon sucks so hard, that it almost made me cry. It has worked in the past, but now it just a "space waster".
