Does not work with YouTube. YouTube occasionally re-engineers its streams to thwart downloading. The makers of Ant Video Downloader have not updated their extension in some time, as if that is not a priority.

says "the use of native app is disabled in the settings" but when you click on the message it opens a black page.

the supposed explanatory page has a general screenshot of the settings menu with no specific setting shown.

no setting in the privacy tab in the setting makes any sense about the disabling the app.

support page requires a signing up process.

JESUS F.CKING CHRIST!! are you actually trying to piss people off in purpose!!???

DO NOT DOWNLOAD it uses the computer resources without the users permission, it looks like it was soft mining in the background.

it is not discovering the stream videos , even if the video plays.

Every time Ant requests to download native apps data. I don't agree with this system. The video conversion should be managed by Ant and give back a link for download. Otherwise it becomes like a program to install on pc.

Installed it. It then immediately redirected me browser to something one of my adblock filter lists considered a malware risk site.

Used to be good now it will crash firefox.

Do not download!!!

This app crashes firefox, have reverted back to a past version, have now installed latest version, won't detect videos while playing, still crashes firefox, used this for years with no problems, how can this be fixed?

Ant cannot download videos..
just downloads a fake empty file with the same name.. why does this happen? I have the latest native app installed...

don't install!! kill my firefox, need reinstall

Unfortunately, once the best program for downloading videos has slipped into complete shit. The program does nothing but consume almost 100% RAM and freeze the browser (Firefox) and computer. Do not install

Since end 2021, use too much cpu/ram... making Firefox very slow and the app sometime unusable (at best, can download 1 video at same time, during this time, it not responding).

Uninstall/reinstall addon and native app is not better.
Wipe out an reset work, but only for some days.
Must reset every 2-3 days for have not too much problem.
It's like if all videos detected are never deleted of the memory of the addon, and continu to use ressources.

PS: Sorry for bad english level.

like all the other reviews say, this extension USED TO BE the best. But at the end of 2021 they made it useless, now all it does is freeze up firefox and if you don't remove it fast enough it will freeze your entire computer. There are no fixes as of Jan 29, 2022. Uninstalling and reinstalling DOES NOT fix anything, uninstalling and reinstalling the native app will also DO NOTHING TO FIX IT, it will work for a day or two but then it will go right back to freezing everything. Uninstalling and reinstalling firefox will also not fix the issue. It's a real shame that they ruined this extension it worked great for years, but now it's completely worthless.

makes Browser unuseable. its like trying to run Windows 10 at a 386 dx 40

update: need every start about 4-5 minutes to reset the extension that firefox works and that with an amd 3950
