- Rated 1 out of 5by Adam, a month agoI used to use this with no problems but today I downloaded about 8 videos I needed to use to make a documentary and I found out it put a huge QR code over the top of every video I dowlonaded making them unusable. So it seems they've now made this extension absolute trash and I've uninstalled it and have to delete these videos and now download them again using youtube to mp4 online. Absolute waste of my time.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Ev1M4chine, a month agoNO way to contact the author for bug reports or questions. (Try it.) NO way to configure where it actually stores the downloaded data before it’s copied to the target directory. (Can’t watch the partial download while it’s downloading, for example.) Just does the same thing yt-dlp does with a shittier dumbed-down-to-the-max interface (almost completely unconfigurable and powerless). What is even the point of this? Is this a Windows computer illiterate thing I’m too brain-using to understand?
- Rated 1 out of 5by KnOwlEdge, a month agoWhile in the past you could choose ANY folder in your PC as download folder for this app, since a while it forces you to choose either the default Windows Downloads folder or a subfolder of it.
And contrarily to the past, it also COMPLETELY bypasses the Firefox setting to "ask every time", i.e. even if you have this option active in the Firefox settings, while you use this app there is no popup to choose where to download.
There's the option "Download as" but that too, the lazy dev didn't even noticed that there's a but that lets the download start immediately without any popup. You have to stop the download and there it opens the popup.
MENTAL!!!
For me 10001% USELESS as of now, and I VERY DEEPLY resent the dev for this. SHAME ON YOU!!! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 19819153, a month ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Jomou3ag1ng, a month agoI was honestly suprised and amazed of how it actually works for free, respects my privacy, and it's easy to use. Genuinely one of the best extension i've ever discovered below ublock origin of course.
