Like others I've found this add-on no longer works. And I mean AT ALL.

It makes me very sad that this extension has been ruined by the developer. It used to be a really nifty extension capable of saving anything. While it can sometimes save SOME videos from YouTube the extension with companion app make it so slow that it is not practical. We are talking HOURS here. I am not surprised that the developer has given up. The least they could do is stick the source of all versions on GitHub so someone else can try and fix it. Thanks for your previous effort.

Video not found.

Doesn't support Linux.

Used to be the best one available but I believe that they have quit developing/supporting it any longer. Now it just doesn't work on most. Really too bad...

Once the best video downloader, now it doesn't work anymore, what a pity they stopped it :((

ABSOLUTELY USELESS. Used to work fine but last couple of months, nothing. Only site it works on is momless. Doesnt work on YT, Dailymotion, bitchute or any other video streaming site. Always get the "native app not working" or "native app error needs to be on to merge segments". If it does detect a video the download will fail because the server will stop working. Utter trash.

It also chews up an ENORMOUS amount of ram which leads to Firfox freezing AND it has some really sus permissions like download history.

I shouldnt have to clear my cache everytime I want to download a video then lose all my log ins.

not working for a simple song on youtube following link : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIYhP7GjV3Q error {"protocol":"ytnp","url":null,"description":{"title":"(63) PAGADIXX Ft.

Not working with native app...

Was once the best out there, but now discontinued abruptly and without explanation after months of flagging functionality. DO NOT INSTALL.

Yep, no more support. No more functionality. Do not waste you time.

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.
