- Rated 1 out of 5by Islam Nurmagomedov, 22 days agoThis extension makes YT lags as hell. I swear to God. I uninstalled it and it went back to normal.

posted 20 days agoNo! :) How come, just 2 hours before your comment, when i answered "💕", i felt it is predictable that it will make somebody try getting negative attention? - While this may be removed unless you edit/correct it, you can also do something that will earn positive. Kind regards - Rated 1 out of 5by Zharay, 25 days agoSick and tired of having features work then break then back again without any real explanation. Almost got to the point to which I was going to switch back to Chrome until I found the extension I was using there finally got ported to Firefox.
A valiant effort, but plagued by too many bugs. Developer response
posted a month agoCheck again please. v4.1090. - Player features work, appearance features might not (because it is a different layout). BTW: reviews are not for specific bug reports or support, but are supposed to judge the product as a whole.- Rated 1 out of 5by Paul, 3 months ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Wagner, 4 months agode fato nenhum supera o falecido youtube enhancer... esse até tinha boa proposta e algumas opções apesar de bem cru, mas o mais importante não cumpriu, que é bloquear o lixo cibernético (refiro a propagandas)

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18247726, 8 months agoNot usable: impossible to add channels to blocklist.

posted 8 months agohi, please rate us for all of our (100+) features. (Otherwise it is not fair, compared to all other extensions.)
Also: This is a "misplaced support requested": the button is on the channel pages (we can add it on channels too to be easy to find, but we already do 100s of things for free and it is impossible to do every possible thing users imagine). A volunteer recently even revised this whole feature though! AND the feature is displayed small & las,t because we might retire one day, since YouTube also offers such by now. - Rated 1 out of 5by ee, 8 months agoOffers good functionalities, but seems rarely able to enforce them. E.g. I almost always have to turn autoplay off and cancel up next videos manually. It's features are well thought out; it's just wildly inconsistent.
edit:
what even was that drivel? how is this rating-manipulating heckling even allowed on AMO?Developer response
posted 8 months agoHi there, read again maybe? Whats not supposed to do here is misplacing support requests in reviews. Be assured an author's comment can be relevant more easily. You might not want to launch wrongful attacks here either like "wildly inconsistent".
---
Hi there, several people confused the number of options and how specific they are: Autoplay means if a video is starting to play at page load without a click. Disabling "Up next Autoplay" is another features that you want to use separately (or both, your choice).
(Most of our users yet bring the interest/geek to watch up to 100 switches. )
Also please consider that no matter what we work for free since 11 years and 100s of times than most extensions with a single feature never requiring an update. So we deserve more than 5 stars. Our features are consistently developed and some might (or might not) temporarily have issues after YouTube changes. (Since YouTube doesn't announce these changes, it is the best we can possibly do. The only hope to manage this 24/7 service perfectly is many users and luckily we grow. Slowly tho. With every bad and inaccurate review it gets worst, my hope goes down. That's the purpose of review. You decide if you want such to be attempted any further or just not bother, or even vote it down to make it stop existing.) - Rated 1 out of 5by BWX, 8 months agoShould be named "Breaks Youtube". When installed most thumbnails are broken in playlists, they're just blank, and the preview videos in the thumbnails are broken. Add-on seems to break loading of channel page, subscription list, etc, etc.. Just a broken mess. Also no volume boost button. Also cannot delete shortcut keys, even the non standard ones loaded by default. What the ....? Basically worthless since so much is broken.

posted 8 months agohi there! :) Please try again. This project is a rare sisyphos-mission going on since 11 years and for 580 000 users. Please report any bug you might find in detail in our github. We don't set any non-standard youtube hotkeys but only inform you alone the way what are the standards. (This is supposed to be efficient/minimal design, like Apple). The volume boost can be set permanent or a quick button be added easily by a beginner as we prepared well. However i cant do everything alone and might prefer unique work. (You can use any other volume boost extension.) Thanks Developer response
posted 9 months agoEDIT: The android version has 300 daily users apparently, please let us know.
EDIT: removing the experimental android version with the very next update for now, so the ratings don't harm the project. Can you revise the rating?

hi! how come, what happened? (please add any detail so we can re-produce the issue). Thank you!- Rated 1 out of 5by Oleg, 9 months ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18029472, 10 months agoI only need the speed control and unfortunately it works only if I reopen the extension everytime I restart the browser and change the speed again. Sometimes I have to do it as well without closing the browser...
Developer response
posted 10 months agohi! :) did you see the music exception? If there is any bug please report asap on github. (Please understand frequent YouTube updates arent our fault nor that you only want one feature) Many smiles. - Rated 1 out of 5by Luc, a year agoNothing to configure it: no "Options" page for the extension, no new button...
I only got a "Screenshot" and a "Loop" button on youtube webpages, that's all.
Answer: I have 11 extensions installed, and have tested hundreds others. I also use Firefox since its creation.Developer response
posted a year agosounds like you have not used any browser extensions before. please be informed that extensions usually have an options page and a browser icon. (And in our's, the first toggle even enables an icon on youtube.com too - if you will.) - Rated 1 out of 5by MarsSeed, a year agoTried with Firefox for Android Nightly (120.0a1), but it doesn't seem to do anything.

posted a year agohi! how many features did you try? you might noticed we only run on youtube.com yet (not yet m.youtube.com) (and on phones most people might rather use apps for youtube such as new-pipe) - however you might want to use this on an android tablet with the full / desktop site. - Rated 1 out of 5by -_-, a year agoI'm giving 5 stars because of how well this addon works on Chrome, but I was wondering if you could fix the broken parts for Firefox as well.
Right now, the "player size" options are broken.
You guys have always been great about adjustment in the wake of youtube's erratic updates/changes, so thanks in advance!
Edit: 6/7/24
Youtube is breaking things as they always do. I am currently having trouble with speedup not working, but I am also wondering if anything can be done to block the new pause recommended videos at the bottom. Thanks as always guys.
Edit: 6/20/24
Fit to window and custom playback speed are still currently broken on firefox
Edit: 7/4/24
Disabling shadow around a video on hover, disabling the 5 second skip animation and other player appearance options are now also broken
Edit: 7/14/24
I have disabled the extension on firefox. Aside from things being broken, it is now also causing youtube to slowdown to an unwatchable level. I will be using alternatives until the extension is fixedDeveloper response
posted a year agothank you, please join us on github. cant do it always. looking forward to incorporate as a charity.
