- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17871091, a year agoUsed to be good. now it's not worth the time to install it. nobody wants huge qr codes all over the video. sort it out.
- Rated 1 out of 5by daskraut, a year agodemands installation of external app, downloaded files have watermark, too much hassle. a once useful extension gone to absolute shite.
- Rated 1 out of 5by jJoel, a year agoUsed to be a great extension, now just another cash-grab. The fact that it tells you it put a gigantic QR code on the video AFTER the download is despicable. Have some decency and tell people up-front that you are a paid product FFS. I would have bought it.

- Rated 1 out of 5by _random_username, 2 years agoGenerally a good addon BUT in its current state unuseable. The automatically generated watermark is taking a comically big chunk of the video, asking you to buy a license.
I am not against monetizing your work if it is a good product and the price is right.
Yet 18,50€ is just absurd.
Additionally I am a bit confused about some of the recent reviews around here, giving 5 stars using the exact same wording. Is this an attempt to counter the 1 star reviews after monetization?
I am strongly advising the dev(s) to rethink their current approach - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18360755, 2 years agoVideo Conversion Registration for Firefox error

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13431571, 2 years agoSetzt ein Wasserzeichen ins Video und man muss eine Lizenz erwerben. Also deinstalliert.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18357471, 2 years agoThis was my favorite video downloader. I keep Firefox updated, but now when I go to download a video nothing happens. It just says "Queued". It no longer works, uninstalled.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18355405, 2 years agoCe module est navrant : il nécéssite d'installer une appli. et en plus il incruste un ENORME QR code dans la vidéo qu'il télécharge et te demande 18 € pour avoir des vidéo sans QR code. Il ne prévient pas avant que tu aies tout installé.
Une belle Arnaque! - Rated 1 out of 5by Astral, 2 years agoRequires an unmonitored companion app in order to download any video.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18352858, 2 years agoI have used this add-on without any problems in the past with earlier versions of Firefox but it doesn't work with the latest Firefox version. Disappointing.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 5709983, 2 years agoIt will not download any yt video without the need of the additional application. :(
- Rated 1 out of 5by TB42, 2 years agoThis addon used to not include a large QR code watermark on downloaded videos. Just recently, now it does. It was nice while it lasted. The developer would do better to add a less obnoxious watermark like Hypercam. Still present in the video, but it doesn't block a significant portion of the picture.
If there is a way to download the video and audio streams without muxing them together and add the giant watermark, I didn't find it. I didn't care to look for more than a minute. I'll find something else. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17847514, 2 years agoIf you don't pay them for "Donations" expect a huge QR code demanding donations or videos will be sabotaged with a massive "PAY TO REMOVE" QR code.
Disgusting monetization, strong-arming users into paying because they know they are popular and users are unwilling to switch to other means to download videos.
Predatory practices.
