- Rated 1 out of 5by _random_username, a year agoGenerally a good addon BUT in its current state unuseable. The automatically generated watermark is taking a comically big chunk of the video, asking you to buy a license.
I am not against monetizing your work if it is a good product and the price is right.
Yet 18,50€ is just absurd.
Additionally I am a bit confused about some of the recent reviews around here, giving 5 stars using the exact same wording. Is this an attempt to counter the 1 star reviews after monetization?
I am strongly advising the dev(s) to rethink their current approach - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18360755, a year agoVideo Conversion Registration for Firefox error

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13431571, a year agoSetzt ein Wasserzeichen ins Video und man muss eine Lizenz erwerben. Also deinstalliert.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18357471, a year agoThis was my favorite video downloader. I keep Firefox updated, but now when I go to download a video nothing happens. It just says "Queued". It no longer works, uninstalled.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18355405, 2 years agoCe module est navrant : il nécéssite d'installer une appli. et en plus il incruste un ENORME QR code dans la vidéo qu'il télécharge et te demande 18 € pour avoir des vidéo sans QR code. Il ne prévient pas avant que tu aies tout installé.
Une belle Arnaque! - Rated 1 out of 5by Astral, 2 years agoRequires an unmonitored companion app in order to download any video.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18352858, 2 years agoI have used this add-on without any problems in the past with earlier versions of Firefox but it doesn't work with the latest Firefox version. Disappointing.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 5709983, 2 years agoIt will not download any yt video without the need of the additional application. :(
- Rated 1 out of 5by TB42, 2 years agoThis addon used to not include a large QR code watermark on downloaded videos. Just recently, now it does. It was nice while it lasted. The developer would do better to add a less obnoxious watermark like Hypercam. Still present in the video, but it doesn't block a significant portion of the picture.
If there is a way to download the video and audio streams without muxing them together and add the giant watermark, I didn't find it. I didn't care to look for more than a minute. I'll find something else. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17847514, 2 years agoIf you don't pay them for "Donations" expect a huge QR code demanding donations or videos will be sabotaged with a massive "PAY TO REMOVE" QR code.
Disgusting monetization, strong-arming users into paying because they know they are popular and users are unwilling to switch to other means to download videos.
Predatory practices. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18351673, 2 years agoI was enjoying it but the watermark now is a killer. Make it smaller or translucent and maybe people would consider donating. The way it's setup now is like strong-arming people into donating. Also the lack of any choice of how much to donate is wrong. The other guy starts out at $10 and goes UP TO $30. I gave him $10 but now I think I'll donate some more because he never does this he just limits free users to only download 720p or lower.
If you are patient you never need one of these anyway. Before I got any downloaders I used a screen recorder to simply record the video and audio. Not promoting any brand because people will say my review is fake, but if you search around I think you'll find a good one. you pay ONCE and you can record anything all day long every day with no watermarks. If you're gonna watch the video first, you might as well record it and bypass all these downloading hurdles. - Rated 1 out of 5by Loris, 2 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18350903, 2 years agoDoesn't work anymore forme on sites it used to.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17710428, 2 years agoWatermark too big. Price to remove watermark is TOO EXPENSIVE. Should have been a simple donation! Can't even use properly now. Uninstall.
