- Rated 1 out of 5by Nucleus Mortem, 4 months agoTricking long time users with a policy update into a trap for making them buy their license is just pretty dumb, annoying and weird behaviour. No problem though, I just unistalled it, moving on to the next best add-on. You get what you deserve.
- Rated 1 out of 5by prince_bandit, 4 months agoDeceptive as all hell. Makes you download a companion app that I now have to dig around to find, then puts a big fucking QR code into the video it didn't let you download until you installed their app.
- Rated 1 out of 5by bigsmilescartoons, 4 months agouse "Downr YouTube Downloader" instead. Search for it in addon store.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18999881, 4 months agoSure ruining your service with a huge QR code for people who don't pay you is an amazing way to keep yourself alive, well uninstalled after all these years ...
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18998242, 4 months agoI paid to purchase it many years ago, it worked great for many years. Now it wants you to allow it to put some kind of tracking cookie on your downloads which seems unclear why they claim not to be tracking you. When I try to use the software that "I paid for" without agreeing to their new tracking policy, they block me from recording. I removed and reloaded it, and now it does not work and will not allow me to put in my license key. Now it's just more trash junk that is wasting my time.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18914282, 4 months agoPretends to be a free extension but in reality is asks for 18$ otherwise a qrcode the size of literal half of your screen will appear on the video. And im not even talking about the "companion app" that has to be installed with admin rights and has to start at system startup.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Xander Felis, 4 months agoNew update insists on installing a closed source binary to do anything useful (this is a different version to that hosted on github). Requires payment for this binary to not cover video with a QR code.
Clearly not trustworthy now. Change of owner maybe? Firefox now claims older versions of the extension from mozilla's addons are 'corrupt' so only the new one installs. - Rated 1 out of 5by firefrog, 4 months agoUnless you consent to some unexplained "CoApp sharing", this addon will open their privacy information page (basically a cookie consent popup) for every new firefox instance. Annoying users to try and coerce them into consenting is an auto-onestar, auto-uninstall.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Rig Anû, 4 months agoBullshit, adds a huge QR code to their site, I used it in the past when it was useful.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Soporte, 5 months agoBueno hasta hace poco tiempo, pero ahora con su QR obligatorio es una basura de plugin.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Anonymous, 5 months agoDownloading a companion app is required. Privacy policy nagging included. If your download requires "converting" you can either pay $28.50(USD) for a "converting license" or deal with a giant QR barcode in the video. Perfect example of a once great extension gone bad.
