Used this since 2010. This is the bigliest addon that isn't a privacy shield or adblocker.
Spend 5 minutes reading the documentation before throwing in the towel.

Good.. recommend

Very useful for some websites. I would give it 5 stars if the "User Interface" preferences had an option to NOT open new tabs every time the addon gets updated... I appreciate the dev keeping the addon up-to-date, but for me the new tab on startup behavior is annoying enough that I end up disabling the addon except when I explicitly need it just to avoid the new tabs...

As far as I can tell, this does not work at all, and there is no support whatsoever.

Never noticed this before the latest update: "Access your data for all websites

The extension could read the content of any web page you visit as well as data you enter into those web pages, such as usernames and passwords. "

No @$%%ing way I'll use this app until they fix that.

I LOVE THIS

Aggravating as hell, because there's nowhere in the settings to choose a preferred download location (directory). It saves to the computer's desktop. I never save photos to the desktop.

In the description on the developer's website, it says that there is provision for the user to set where downloaded files are to be saved. The website is wrong. If there is a provision to choose the download location, then I missed it.

I used DownThemAll before Mozilla changed the way it did extensions. I stopped using DownThemAll after that, for the same reason I'm about to delete it from my browser now--because it has taken away my choice of where to save the downloaded files--a common courtesy among download extensions and browsers alike.

I hope the developer will add back that feature, but I'm not going to hold my breath, because he has had all this time to add that option back, but has chosen not to.

In my opinion, DownThemAll fails in the very thing that it was written to do (save time when downloading multiple files), because it doesn't give the option of where to save the files to.

Another bone of contention is that I tried out the new version of DownThemAll by choosing several sites that had thumbnails of images with hyperlinks to the full-size image (image galleries). In spite of trying several different options, DownThemAll ONLY downloaded the thumbnails. It did not download the full-size image.

The quality of this extension has diminished considerably since its original release. After using DownThemAll for many years, I am very disappointed in the past several versions of DownThemAll, including the latest version. It doesn't do what it once did. I have only kept it on my browser in hopes that the developer will eventually give the user the option of where to save downloaded files. Since that obviously is never going to happen, I am deleting it from my browser, and I will not use it again, unless the developer adds the ability to choose where to save files downloaded by DownThemAll, and enables DownThemAll to download full-size images instead of thumbnails.

Looks like you've gotten lazy, Nils Maier!

Hasn't worked in Firefox for a while

Complete junk in all browsers. Sometimes downloads images if you're lucky. Delete this!

doesn't work in FF 111.0 firefox continued to grab downloads no button shows on toolbar at all

When I've used it, it has been extremely helpful and time saving.

Very confident and efficient
