- Rated 3 out of 5by Adam S. Messinger, 8 days agoIt works well at blocking ads but the typing area in the chat window will no longer work as of last week. It was perfect before that.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 17607442, 2 months agoWorks perfectly, BUT you can't see the streamer panel, and for me the transparency setting in the colors tab is hidden. Still a 4 star since the actual functionality is perfect. Got this for the adblocking and the latency fixing and it seems to do both as good as possible.
Edit: Adblocking is broken currently, just buffers. - Rated 3 out of 5by Patento56, 2 months agoMore and more bugs, now the chat doesn’t work anymore, please do an update
- Rated 3 out of 5by admiral-horton, 3 months agoIts ok, i have issues with the chat not popping up and havin to go into task manager and force shut down if firefox and somethimes that works
- Rated 3 out of 5by th, 5 months agoApp was 5/5, but now it no longer works with broadcast that stream in 1440p60 (will update rating if that changes)
- Rated 3 out of 5by Thom, 8 months agoReliably blocks ads and instant replay is a godsent for many reasons, but breaks integration with frankerfacez often (as it is now) and regresses to 480p whenever an ad occurs.
- Rated 3 out of 5by SioN, 10 months agoit does what it promises but i personally dont want my whole page to be replaced with a nearly full screen player.
i prefer to watch my streams in the standard normal player size, see all stream info and live channels that im following.
not to mention this extension forces you to use light mode, or at least you have to manually turn it on every time. - Rated 3 out of 5by KC, a year agoWorks fine, but for some stupid reason you can't have your followed channels list visible anywhere, you have to go to the menu for that.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 18466270, a year agoI hate having to keep switching from light to dark mode. And recently been having problems with chat straight up freezing. Doesn't show 7TV emotes and quality drops when there are ads. Blocks all ads though very well
- Rated 3 out of 5by Ellesadil, a year agoWork's fine for the most part, Channel points are no longer being collected for some reason anymore, was working great 2 weeks ago and then just stopped.
nvm, for some weird reason I just had to disable and then re-enable the extension and now it works again. - Rated 3 out of 5by KlooKloo, a year agoPlease, for the LOVE OF GOD let us turn off hotkeys. Having raw (non-ctrl, alt, shift, cmd) alphabet letters work as hotkeys that do things on your plugin is INSANE. I've clicked on the comment field and started typing and fucked everything up multiple times. Stop this immediately!
- Rated 3 out of 5by Nihtnek, 2 years agoWorks well but give 3 stars cause 7tv is an integral part of Twitch nowadays and it not working basically means this is mostly irrelevant.
- Rated 3 out of 5by CatKook, 2 years agoIt works, but it strips away a lot of the functionality of twitch away.
if you're out of alternative options, really want to continue watching twitch but HATE ads, then grab this extension. - Rated 3 out of 5by Miliexy, 2 years agoIt's better than twitch player when that stops buffering the streams with my 100mb/s fiber internet. But the alternate player adds a 10 second delay which is sometimes annoying when watching and reading chat. I hope this gets addressed along with other concerns that people have.
- Rated 3 out of 5by scooterbaga, 2 years agoDoesn't switch the video when streamer raids. Only the chat.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Zev, 2 years agoРаботало более-менее нормально, но с недавнего времени перестало находить трансляции твича
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 16369964, 2 years agoWas good while it worked twitch pushed out an update which required an autorization ID to allow streams to play so all ad-blockers will need to be updated to work (if a bypass can be found) and i doubt alternate player will be updated as the last update was in 2022
- Rated 3 out of 5by Randy, 3 years ago
- Rated 3 out of 5by Bryan Montiel, 3 years agoNeeds an urgent update to be compatible with 7TV v3.0+ and be compatible to follow the streamer inside the extension, without the need to load twitch
- Rated 3 out of 5by MonarchOfTheDeadSheep, 3 years agoIt's a good program, a little confusing to use but fairly easily learned. I am grateful for it and thank you for making it free!
Currently, raids are not working. The chat will switch channels but the visuals don't show anything but the ended broadcast screen no matter what I've tried.
Also, it refuses to allow me to follow anyone! The follow button disappears and a red box with a sad emoji pops up briefly. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14816717, 3 years agoIt's pretty great, but for some reason there is no option to see the followed streamers left sidebar. I use that a LOT so it unfortunately prevents me from being able to use this.
