- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 17776553, 2 years agoThis addon is great, but it won't keep subtitles on. I selected "Subtitles" under Player>Subtitles. Reinstalling it didn't fix this issue.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15166984, 3 years agoIn my review 6 months ago I mentioned this add-on needed an updated. Well, it's now been a year since this was updated and Youtube has gone through some major design changes since then. Sad really because it had promise.

posted 2 years agohi! ♥ 4.0.17.1 will be live in Firefox any moment with ~100 improvements. Unfortunately we lost our maintainer in 2022, but are getting back on track. We are over 500000 active users and only 1-3 active developers. Every volunteer will help https://github.com/code-for-charity/ImprovedTube-for-YouTube - Rated 4 out of 5by OscarPug, 3 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by von Karma, 3 years agoFor the most part, this extension is amazing, definitely helps with combating YouTube's auto quality setting too.
This extension is missing out on a lot of the updates from its GitHub repo however.
If anyone is coming across an issue where you can't re-enable comment avatars try this:
#1: Go to "about:devtools-toolbox?id=%7B3c6bf0cc-3ae2-42fb-9993-0d33104fdcaf%7D&type=extension"
#2: Click "Storage" from the top if it hasn't been selected already
#3: Open "Extension Storage" from the left side
#4: Click on the first result
#5: Click "Filter Items" and type "hide_author_avatars",
#6: Right click on the first result and click "Delete hide_author_avatars"
This should bring back comment avatars (you may need to reload existing YouTube tabs)
You do need to delete the key since setting the value to "false" doesn't work on this particular version of Improve Youtube (3.935).Developer response

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 17453464, 3 years agoThe customization is amazing and I would absolutely be using this all the time except for one pretty big thing - it seems to be resetting my theme to dark mode no matter how many times I switch it back to light. I understand that most users prefer dark mode, but on YouTube I do not and I find this very irritating. Uninstalling the extension fixed the problem. I wasn't sure whether to give this 3 or 4 stars because the error I was having was so irritating, but everything else was good so I gave it 4.
- Rated 4 out of 5by SchMOPS, 3 years agothe "mark watched videos" eye button on a videos thumbnail should actually mark the video as watch instead of the eye turning white and give it the red line underneath it on all other devices, it is possible since another extention can do it but i prefer this one over it.

- Rated 4 out of 5by sudowtf, 3 years agoi like it, but EfYT had a couple features that i require: mouse volume, mouse speed, volume booster.
Developer response
posted 3 years agowe already got that. But it should not be a requirment for 5 stars :(
Please wait for the update in Firefox. Also check us out in Chrome & Github. You might be surprised we work on this every day. - Rated 4 out of 5by GloriousMane, 3 years agoFantastic extension, I'd never browse Youtube without it. At this point however, it desperately needs an update, as Youtube has made several major changes that have broken functionality entirely. Specifically, nothing in the "player" tab works anymore.

- Rated 4 out of 5by 1Cef0xGReeN, 3 years ago3 июня 2023: В связи с очередным изменением интерфейса, нужна настройка "Мои подписки" и еще бы вернуть кнопку быстрого добавления видео в "Смотреть позже"

posted 3 years agoyou can do that :) - also join us on https://github.com/code-for-charity/YouTube-Extension - Rated 4 out of 5by Belial, 3 years agoQuality must have add-on... Only issue I have experienced is when searching YouTube and clicking a channel link it will direct me to the previously watched video channel. I have to then return back to previous page then the channel link directs correctly or refresh the page before clicking channel link.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Usuário FF 17151627, 3 years agoÉ uma boa extensão para se utilizar na Área de trabalho e que é possível instalá-lo no Firefox para Android, pena que não funciona as funções de ligar/desligar a reprodução automática e alterar/manter a qualidade do vídeo no YT quando utilizado no FF de Android. Também se possível, adeque o visual da extensão e usabilidade na versão do navegador para Android.

- Rated 4 out of 5by eirikr, 3 years agoHas a bunch of intriguing features, like being able to reproduce videos up to x8 speed, but unfortunately the one I downloaded it for (the ability to stop youtube's awful autoplay from turning back on with every video) did not work, even after restarting firefox.
Developer response
posted 3 years agohi Eirikr! it is called "Autoplay Up Next" for differenciation and because youtube called it "Up Next" until recently. Please also read the reply I gave just gave just above this one. (Chances are you will agree we still deserve 5 stars😊...)
