- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 18023884, 10 months agoI used to give 5 stars review for the greatest video download extension ever, for older version as 8.0.0.6. It's able to download every video as I want. After your updated newer version had been coming, It was working marvelously for a few months. It's downloading faster like lightning. After that errors occurred on all newer version until the current version9. I'm so disappointed and I give you down rate to 3 stars now unfortunately. I'm so wondered these errors are not fixed until now, even a lot of complaints are showed up.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Stephen, 10 months agoThe old version is fabulous and I rate 5 stars. The new version is terrible and I rate 1 star, hence the average. As a result, I have gone back to the previous version and turned off updates. If you're new to this, my recommendation is to go back to the pre May 2024 version.
- Rated 3 out of 5by OwariLeviathan, 10 months agoJ'aime beaucoup cette extension. En plus, depuis la nouvelle mise à jour, elle est beaucoup plus ergonomique. Par contre, un point très négatif est que l'on doit payer. Cela ne me dérangerait pas si seulement je pouvais payer avec PayPal; sauf que l'on ne peut pas et que se soit très claires je ne rentrerai jamais ma carte de crédit là-dedans.
Edit : Elle gagne une étoile en plus car, depuis que je l'utilise de nouveau, je n'ai pas eu de problème de QR code. Il ne s'applique plus qu'aux vidéos téléchargées sur YouTube, ce qui me va très bien puisque c'est l'application pour laquelle il existe le plus de plugins, scripts et logiciels. - Rated 3 out of 5by JayR, 10 months agoWhile the app still does a great job of downloading videos, the interface is not nearly as user-friendly as the previous version. And the tiny font makes it very difficult for those with vision trouble to find the button that lets us select download as. Bring back the old interface.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Stef, a year agoL'extension fonctionne très bien. En revanche, elle cause d'énormes problèmes de performance sur twitch depuis au moins 4 ans. Il serait temps de s'en occuper.

The addon works very well. However, it causes huge performance issues on twitch for at least 4 years. It's about time to take care of it. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 18359602, a year ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by amprivate, a year agoit is very easy and can capture most of the times my issue is errors that has no details about which file it happened to and if you close the browser you lose everything in the queue which is crazy

- Rated 3 out of 5by StefanMacz, a year agoit's ok for some things but can be pretty flaky.
Often it requires the companion application... which is not such a big deal, but even then it can still be distinctly unreliable.
I have a Video Downloader app on my android phone which does a far better job, is much more dependable, saves in sensible formats, offers a better choice of download resolution options, in a much easier to follow way.
The android app also does simultaneous multi-downloads of the same files so you can download a big file in five minutes on the phone what take this addon twenty minutes to do.
By comparision if that android app got a 10/10 rating - which by my book, it does, this barely gets a 3/10.
I regularly have to just give up in disgust at this add-on's inability to save files and switch over to my phone.
Also I've downloaded files using this addon to discover they are in a ridiculous webm format - absolutely not useful to me at all, whereas the android app saves using the much more standard MP4 container.
The app developer really needs to take a long hard look at the alternatives and up their game if they wish for this addon to stay relevant. - Rated 3 out of 5by regj2fly, a year agohelpful!
sadly can't handle a poor network by being able to reconnect/start - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 15150708, a year ago
