by Firefox user 18302143, 2 years agoThe features you want like sort by last updated cost $3/month that is just damn ridiculous! I'm not paying $3/month for a sort by and sub-group folder! So just a pay walled extension that costs way too much!
Developer response
posted 2 years agoIt's important to note that the $3/month(or $30/year) fee isn't solely for the sort by video duration feature. Our PocketTube extension paid plan offers a comprehensive set of over 20 features across two extensions, all designed to enhance your browsing experience on YouTube.The nominal fee helps us cover the costs of maintaining and updating the extensions, especially considering the frequent changes and updates made by YouTube's platform.
We strive to provide value to our patrons by continually improving and expanding the features offered. For example, the sort by video duration feature was requested by our Patreon community and I implemented it specially for it.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Ubeinn, 15 days agoThe features you'd want the most are blocked behind a paywall, so this is useless.

posted 15 days agoThe base features аre free. If you need more, become my supporter. It takes time to update the extension every time YouTube changes internally. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16912776, 18 days agosomeone sent this to me and i found out later that the only feature worth having is paywalled, i originally was just going to leave it at that and uninstall, but the dev was being cringe in response to other reviews.

- Rated 5 out of 5by James, a month agoThis thing is an absolute dream come true! I have a TON of playlists. I love the feature, and use it heavily. I create playlists of my favorite videos for different channels, and when I discover a new channel I enjoy, I create a "catch-up" playlist of their old videos. All of this used to be easy. There were various websites that worked with the API to allow playlists to be copied, sorted by length, all kinds of stuff. But bit-by-bit, YouTube has changed the API so that none of these sites work anymore. Now, if you want to build a really big playlist, you have to manually, one-by-one add videos to plalists. Sorting options have always been limited, and now they're even worse.
This extension fixes all of that! Now I have a clean interface, with my playlists sorted by time, and making new ones is the simple task that it SHOULD be natively. Well worth the Patreon investment, and I'm definitely checking out the other extensions made by the same dev. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19231949, a month agoLiterally wanted this for one thing, to organize my watch later playlist by video length, and they paywalled it. With no mention on the download page that you need to pay. This is literally the first add-on I've ever been told I needed to pay for to use a feature. Really Scummy.

posted a month agoScummy, really? I'm not cheating you. The link on Patreon is available on the extension download page. Why did not open it? Moreover, it's also mentioned in the description, please check the Sort playlist videos by duration [only for our patrons]

So did you blame me without any reason? Why did you scum me in your review, little guy, who's trying to innovate?
I am not a big corporation. We all like free stuff. But in a world where everything is free, we are the product. It's a world where big corporations have all the power because they are the only ones who can afford to offer "free" services. Is that in our interest? - Rated 1 out of 5by kazerniel, 2 months agoPlaylist filtering (the only reason I got this addon) is paywalled... Tip to dev: Maybe indicate clearly on the addon page which features are paywalled to avoid user disappointment and low reviews.

posted a month agoThe basic groups for organizing playlists are free. If you want extended features, you should become a patron. You can see a list of additional features on our Patreon tab. It takes time to update the extension every time YouTube changes internally. Developer response

Furthermore, the decision to keep some features for the Patreon version of PocketTube was made to ensure the long-term feasibility of the free version.- Rated 5 out of 5by deigue, 2 months ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13623447, 3 months agoWow, nice paywall app, first time I've seen that...You know, lots of other addon makers spend time updating their apps too and they don't beg for money. Greeeedy.

- Rated 1 out of 5by DUN, 4 months agoPopup his ads on YT.
Edit: Not true ? Then what's the popup lead to the ads on Youtube of your other addon ? A joke ?
Stop lying.Developer response
posted 4 months agoThat's not true, our extension is ad-free. Maybe you have other extensions causing that behavior. We don't add external ads or replace native YouTube ads.
Edit: If you were referring to our other add-on, it's not an external ads, it's part of our own ecosystem. PocketTube includes two extensions: one for managing subscriptions and another for playlists. If the other add-on isn’t relevant to you, you can simply close the popup, there’s no pressure.
The popup you saw is part of our onboarding flow. We also use it to inform users about new features. We focus on building features our users love and rely on every day.
If you’re not comfortable with our approach, you’re welcome to remove the extension. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18983384, 4 months ago
