I'm not sure what happened to my go-to video downloader after this "update". It shows every type of media for download in a cluttered UI and the list of issues goes on and on.

Δούλευε μια χαρά, ώσπου πρόσφατα σταμάτησε να δουλεύει και προτρέπει να κατεβάσω ένα πρόγραμμα - όχι πρόσθετο αλλά εξωτερικό - και να το τρέξω.

Up until a few days ago before it was updated, this was the go-to downloader fo me. Now it takes forever (up to 5-10 minutes for the videos to be detected) and there is no button to clear the cache. It still lists downloads on sites from several week ago which totally clutters the video list. I've had to remove the add-on and reload it to try to clear this annoying cache memory.

2021-01-03 This "NEW" version is AWFUL!!! Bring back the prior one which actually worked and was VERY USER FRIENDLY, unlike this garbage!!!!

it used to be a great app - since last update - uberjunk - uninstalling it... it is soooo slow now, UI is messy, you can only see a small white line and the whole browser is dead slow, worst update in software history, they took an amazing plugin and turned it into an unusable service. bravo.

one of the best video downloader ever, grat job guys keep going

What once was great with release 4.9, is now 100% junk with version 4.10. Instead of just listing vids, downloading/downloaded it now logs every vid that runs on any web or social media site. There are better, easier, to use, down-loaders for YouTube, Twitter, Facebook ect..., than Ant. Just wait until you try to delete or clear the Ant list. What fun that is. IMO, ANT is nothing more than another form of spy/tracking ware. I have dumped it and will not go back to it after reloading version 4.9. that now runs with the newer junk as well.

Recent end of 2021 updates - super slow, messy User interface, lag, not showing display well, tabs not displaying, slowing down everything. gosh. so bad. uninstalling. It used to be fine, simple, efficient, bbut what the hell are with the recent updates. If its not bbroken, dont change it.

I totally agree with some of the comments posted by other users :

Worst update ever...
There is not just 1 problem, there are many.
The popup to start the download only appears as a small white line, downloads simply stall, the list of videos grows and grows and cannot be reduced in size.

It used to be great, but now it is a mess...

Please, in the next update, go back to a simplified and user-friendly version !

Worst update ever...

The popup to start the download only appears as a small white line, downloads simply stall, the list of videos grows and grows and cannot be reduced in size. (Why can't I turn this off), deleting does not work, the browser now always needs 1 complete CPU (with me about 12% CPU load), the video lists for download do not update, the UI remains, although the download probably continues in the background goes, the new UI is terribly confusing. I have to click 20 times before I get the list of the latest downloads. (This is actually the only list I need, the others are superfluous) ...

Every "update" of FireFox Ant just gets worse and worse.
The 1st update caused download speeds to slow 90%.
Then another update caused the downloads folder to show the wrong location.
Yet another update caused a video list to appear on a tab that had *NO* videos on it.
Then another update caused a ton of .txt files to appear as if they *ARE* videos.
The current update displays the file names and size with the ends all chopped off.
And everything locks up until the Windows Desktop is refreshed/rebuilt.
100% CPU load from FireFox.
Ugh.

What is going on with this big mess? Are you doing 0 testing and just randomly
releasing code that can't possibly ever work?

Last update is unusable, buggy, unbelievable, useless UI; please revert!!! Do you try to use new versions before deploy it??? Seems not...
Anyone knows another good video downloader?

It used to be great, but now it is a mess... there is no way to clear the list. I have more than a 1K videos detected for downloading and no way to delete them. The delete and hard reset options never do their job... A real mess...

I'd rate this 5 but when this add on gets laggier the more videos I download. Often times when I click the add on icon, the download panel doesn't show up until over 10 minutes later.. it's just ridiculously laggy. Plus on the add on tab, filter by tab is pretty much useless since the tabs title isn't even there, instead it's just some numbers. How am I supposed to figure out which tab is it.

It is a mess till last update. Best Downloader before, unusable now.

Apos a atualização, temos que instalar um aplicativo que, segundo o antivirus, e espião

Was a nice little add-on in the past -- streamlined and fast. Now it's bloatware that crashes firefox and causes massive memory leaks. Some genius decided to mess with something that didn't need to be messed with. Pity.


**UPDATE

Useless developers are now telling users to reset the add-on when the massive memory leak occurs and assume this is actually a fix. Laughable. Devs, you need to trash this update and go BACK to the old version pronto.

New update DOES NOT WORK very well. Very slow, could not do my downloads like before. Before update worked very well and very fast. Fire the new programmer. Update back to the old version.

The latest version collects the history of all watched videos. Its removal does not work completely, it cannot be turned off. Same in private mode.

What WAS a perfect piece of software is destroyed by some programmer. The previous version was working great and was very userfriendly. Please go back to that, beacause this just sucks.

What was a perfect add on became horrible after update 4.10. Interface is messy, hard to see what videos are being downloaded,cannot delete history. 4.11 attempted to fix the history problem by adding a clear files tab, problem is it doesn't work. The last 2 updates are good examples of how to take a good product and destroy it.

Slows down Firefox after update, so I leave it disabled now. New UI is bad. Can make it work if I need it to.
