- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18303427, 7 months agoUsed to be really good, easily 4 or 5 star. Is still very good when it works, but recent updates have made it very inconsistent and I'd say about 70% of my downloads fail now or download up to a few MB. The other 30% that succeeds downloads much faster, but it's pretty annoying having to close my browser completely to refresh a page and try a new download (Before the update, a failed download only needed me to refresh the page and then I could try again)
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 12481757, 7 months agoThis used to be an immaculate video downloader. BUt the recent update has ruined it. HLS media often doesn't start downloading even if you refresh the page and start downloading multiple times. And now in most web pages, the video is downloaded without names and instead with random video titles. If the devs are just gonna ruin this extension with subsequent updates, just stop updating it smh

- Rated 2 out of 5by Alex, 7 months agoAfter the update, it became impossible to save the path for downloading files in the settings; it gives errors. If you download to the default folder, everything downloads. Return it to how it was

- Rated 2 out of 5by beqr, 7 months agoWorked great until Version 8.2.0.23
I use this to download files from MultiTracks.com but new version no longer detects *.m4a files on that site. I had to revert back to Version 8.1.4.0 to make it work. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 16180283, 7 months ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by Yuugenmagen, 7 months agoDue to the new update the extension just doesn't work most of the time. When I click on download video the download will just not start or it will stop halfway and not finish, causing the download to be corrupted. This is a awesome app but unreliable at the moment, I just hope the developers fix this issue soon.
- Rated 2 out of 5by johntky, 7 months agoPay per year to Use . unless alright with watermark. Lower the price!
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13085060, 7 months agoI struggled with the interface of the add-on, that is unclear and extremely user unfriendly, but up for now it did it's job. Now it not only has an ugly mark - it fails to download video. It downloads audio instead and puts its mark on it.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Edward, 7 months agoSeems to work fine but it adds a watermark to all your downloaded videos unless you pay, so the videos are unusable.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Domi, 8 months agoAnscheinend bleiben die Kinderkrankheiten der Software nach wie vor immer noch bestehen.
Insbesondere dass die fertigen Videos lange laden und schwer zu bearbeiten sind z.b. in einem Video-Editor zeigt einfach nur dass noch so einiges an der Stabilität gemacht werden muss.
Insgesamt könnte alles stabiler und besser laufen, aber scheinbar werden die Grundprobleme nie richtig angegangen. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14228962, 8 months agoJó minőség esetén ez is átment fizetősbe. Fuck.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18245252, 8 months agoПосле последнего обновления не видит приложение-компаньон. Соответственно ничего не скачивает.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 12203044, 8 months agoThe addon itself is the best video downloader probably, but after this new update, you pretty much try to force me to pay money with a gigantic QR-code watermark. I understand you want to earn money with your work, you deserve it, but man, this is too much, too big. Sorry but I delete the addon.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18242310, 8 months agodowonload mp4 file by this version is no sound.
- Rated 2 out of 5by VanguardLH, 8 months agoBaitware. Free version adds watermark to saved videos (a QR code image). Must buy the premium version to get rid of watermark. 3-orb toolbar icons does not appear. Have to tap Extensions toolbar button, and configure DownloadHelper to pin to toolbar.
- Rated 2 out of 5by GreyJedi, 8 months agoGreat if you want just a few videos, not more.
- Not that user friendly regarding picking video quality and a better optinal download bar would be nice
- If you download many small things Windows Notifications will be spammed
- External app (which defeats the purpose of an extension) I see security issues with that
- Its not clear enough from the start that you will need a license to not have water marks (I understand that a good product has a price) - Rated 2 out of 5by Night2025, 9 months ago
