(I'm reviewing the original original original android release. Which I helped test and bugshoot. And spent a lot of time figuring out how to make child friendly playlists for my toddlers with autism, in conjunction with a screen overlay app. It was not easy while that app was rough. But it had potential. I am in a big hurry so i apologize, but I needed to write something related?) Please tell me. Are you asking for a subscription for this extension? Or a one time payment?

-----
that still didn't answer my question about it being a subscription or a one time payment that everyone in the reviews list for the extension is actually talking about. personally I'd appreciate both being free but if it's your main income (what else do you develop btw) then that's different. it still seems backwards to charge for an extension and not charge for the app. ???

Please fix the new video dot issue

At least make the paywall a one time purchase and not a subscription.

Edit: Moving chosen selected videos to another playlist is an essential part of this add-on. I understand some features being paywalled, but I think this one is too important to be.

Amazing add-on. Works exactly as said.

Can't give more than 3 stars because of subscription model. I have no issues with the dev collecting money to keep the plugin up to date, but the wording makes it seem like you have the option to donate, instead of it being a subscription, which is predatory.

shame it doesn't differentiate multiple channels, I have many of them for different kinds of contents and the groups from my main channel are shared through all of them, that's a bit annoying

After a year and a half of use, with more than 300 subscriptions organized, suddenly yesterday all my groups got deleted. And my backup is a year old 🤦.

decent even with the paywalls.

worst paywall is locking the sorting of community posts, and instead of just using chronological order, it shows the most recent posts from random channels. this is the only way to see community posts on a browser, by the way. in 'chronological order', but the 'chronological order' applies to the channels, so if you are subscribed to channels with a variety of activity, you get posts from months to years ago mixed in with daily ones. and the only sorting available without paying is how many posts from each channel you can see. its bad enough to make me want to refuse to pay you out of pure spite. i Just Want to see community posts in Chronological Order. at least give me alphabetization if youre forcing me into this 'see every channels posts' system so i can put the effort into finding them in a reasonable system. WHY would you put the channels in random order. its not useful for ANYTHING

anyway, as i was saying, the subscription grouping system is alright. the paywalls locks on it are more understandable, and its still usable even without paying. the kind of thing that would make me want to contribute if i could.

Most features are either locked or severely restricted behind a paywall. But they have updated the "play all" button to actually play all videos instead of just the latest 50, so it's good enough for me.

The filter "shorts/live" doesn't work. And shorts become more and more annoying. It would be awesome if this could be fixed.

EDIT: I disabled all other addons and the toggles "shorts/live" dont effect anything. Only "uploads" work but this effects all the videos. I tested this on firefox and chrome

I sent you the screenshots

Okay now it works in Chrome, but the thing is, I use this addon to not have to login on youtube/google.
Would be awesome if this feature could be added. Thanks for your support.

The idea is great, but the actual functioning is poor because it breaks some behaviors in YouTube and I had to uninstall this extension because of it.

1. When doing a search, the results page sometimes gets stuck refreshing the results, basically the results are caught in a loop of refreshing over and over so you can't click on anything.

2. When scrolling videos, YouTube uses lazy loading, but with this extension enabled, the videos do not load and it's just blank, therefore video results beyond the page break fail to load.

3. There are glitches when loading your main subscription feed page, things like shorts showing up then disappearing, despite what option you have selected. In my usage, I have shorts disabled, however they continue to show up sometimes on page loads.

4. The actual loading time of pages on YouTube is noticeably slower, this is most likely due to this extension using additional resources and causing it to lag.

5. Not the extensions fault but a byproduct is this will make your YouTube mobile app experience worse because your subscriptions are now all together, so if you use this extension to subscribe and be able to organize them where you wouldn't otherwise subscribe, then your lists are useless on mobile.

6. I don't appreciate the advertising for your extension upgrades. Yes, we understand you'd like to make revenue but let users show/hide these options and once they make their choice do not advertise this again. IF users want to upgrade, they can do so later on their own terms.

Again, it's a good idea but hopefully YouTube will adopt collections natively (as they have done beta testing with select users) and this will then be able to be used on your account across all platforms and devices.

The main feature I use is the subscription categories and the ability to hide shorts, once YouTube adopts this it will be great. Hopefully this extension will inspire YouTube to release collections to all users and feed options such as hiding shorts.

Really liked the extension when it was working, unfortunately it hasn't worked for 1-2 weeks now. Subscription groups not present in the sidebar anymore, so no way to access my subscriptions :(

EDIT: Turns out it is not compatible with the Unhook Extension :( that is really a shame
I really liked the "Deck" feature, so decided to pay for the full version, unfortunately the playlists are not working as i had hoped, I am not able to show a group of playlists in the Deck

great when it works, breaks often (broken currently)

edit: dev is very responsive and helpful at least

Breaks every week ranging from:
- resetting the unwatched filter so literal days worth of videos gets added into the filter
- youtube shorts don't get added as "watched"
- clicking the subs group doesnt load any videos until I click the patreon tab


either youtube changes their api every damn week or this extension is that fragile

Great app but the PayWall kills it.

nevermind mark as watch feature helped me mark all the videos that ive seen as watch without a paywall, thats what i expect from a extention.

Love this extension, BUT the latest update has a bug where the subscription page filters undo themselves after a few seconds of loading {when I select a filter}. sometimes it'll filter right, but usually it'll try and then go back to showing all videos regardless of what filter is set

I liked it until I updated it. All I was using it for was to hide what I have already watched on my sub page.. the rest is just clutter to me.. there's too much screen real estate being taken up by the control banner

I really like this extension but now I was trying to use it and I get three grey dots and it's not working. I saw more people is having the same issue, so I hope it will be fixed soon.

recently it can't make a playlist when play a video from a group, happened in firefox nightly.

Near-Shareware-level lack of features, with an incomprehensible interface, and several bugs.
When you can't even do something as simple as remove a channel from a group without searching through a thousand menus in the basic version, it might be too soon to start paywalling everything else.
