Habe das Add-on installiert und wollte es gleich ausprobieren. Jetzt wird man gleich zu Beginn, also vor dem Download eines Videos, aufgefordert, eine "Begleitanwendung" (was auch immer die macht und überhaupt darf) zu installieren.

In den Bewertungen wurde ich zum Glück schon vorgewarnt, konnte es aber noch nicht so recht glauben.

Ich finde das hochgradig unseriös und werde das Add-on Video DownloadHelper sofort wieder deinstallieren! Absolut KEINE Empfehlung!

does not work without a companion app

Encountered major issues with Video DownloadHelper. It requires a mandatory companion install, and the downloads come with an intrusive QR code. Upon scanning, it leads to a page asking for monthly payments to remove these QR codes from downloads. This is misleading and seems like a scheme to extract money under the pretense of a free extension. Not recommended due to these deceptive practices.

Can't do anything without installing a "companion app". Don't bother.

Tried to try it - did not even get the 3 ball icon mentioned in the manual - stuck firsthand. Furthermore discouraged by the requirement to install a "companion" app.
Uninstalled it right away.

Was fine until I tried to download a video today and was met with a giant watermark that required payment to remove. Didn't work all that great to begin with, but it was fine. Now it's not.

schrott, man kann die auflösung der videos nicht immer sehen, das ist nervig, es zeit 4 video an, aber man sieht nicht welches das besste von der auflösung ist.

It requires an additional app on MacOS which you can't and should not install because it's not verified.

Many important features are behind a paywall and require other software to be installed.

Functionally useless because each download adds a massive QR code to the corner of whatever you deign to download.

App en plus de l'add on firefox à telecharge sans mention dans la description, gros QR code sur les videos telechargees pour vous demander de payer la version pro et watermark sur les videos alors que cette extension doit permettre le telechargement illegal de video youtube c'est un comble.

todo bien hasta hace poco comenzo a descargar con baja resolucion, tarda mas tiempo y termina incrustando un codigo QR, el cual antes no existia

If you want to use this downloader get ready to pay to remove the huge watermark.

I would maybe think about donating, if the QR code was bigger than the video I was trying to download, it isn't a gentle reminder, its a big FU to the people that havent paid for it, might as well make it mandatory to pay for it. I will not be doing either one. If the QR code was smaller, I might have thought about it, but its obnoxious.

Extension will not work without downloading a companion app. Resulting videos have a huge watermark on them unless you pay $20 to unlock the pro version. Downloaded video does not match the quality of the online video despite having the ability to select the specific resolutions of the hosted file.
