- Rated 4 out of 5by Miguel Garza, a year ago===Update 10/1/26==========================================================
At this moment, the extension *seemed* broken on both Firefox and Chrome. On Firefox, after I logged in, the sidebar taok me to a page that told me to install the extension (which had already occurred). On Chrome, it didn't seem to recognize that I had logged in.
After a few minutes, it started working. I'm not sure what changed to make it work. I think it might be that I logged in on the website homepage itself for the extension, but then again, maybe not, because I did that on Firefox first and that didn't make a difference.
========================================================================
Really excellent core functionality--saves me a lot of time on videos!
I initially rated this 4 stars because logging in from the sidebar was not possible in Firefox (you could to go to the Scribe homepage) and the old Firefox sidebar button did not play nice with the extension. However, the first issue has been fixed and Firefox is moving to a new sidebar style that does not interfere with this extension.
For that reason, and because the core functionality is second to none, I'm changing my rating to five stars. The one-time fee for unlimited transcripts, multiple languages, transcript chapters, etc. is well worth the price.Developer response
posted a year agoThanks Miguel for the detailed feedback. Would it be better to not use a sidebar at all and instead overlay a (movable) window directly over the right hand side of the Youtube window? - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19209880, a year agoDoes not work at all and immediately tries to get you to pay. It's a trap.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Kim, a year agoI use this all the time to transcribe bad YouTube audio. It quickly transcribes the YouTube video. I then copy it as plain text, and paste in my text to speech app. Easy fix for people hearing impaired, like me.
