- Rated 1 out of 5by HoZ, 2 years agoHonestly this is the worst way to download any video since it plasters a terrible QR code on your download telling you to upgrade/pay. There are quality and actual free solutions to download videos on these websites. While this extension has 4.3 as an overall rating now, there is no way that will remain the case for long with how this extension is operating.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Yang, 2 years agoFree version will patch a QR code at the corner of the output video. This consumes your CPU power to encode the whole video again, just to bother you so you can buy a license. I really don't understand how this extension can get 4.3/5.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Goldobsidian, 2 years agoDoesnt work on most websites any more, wont detect all resolutions offered when it does, no longer free and puts a giant ugly QR code on every download. Not worth the time or effort when better options and free options exist.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18198389, 2 years agoDoesn't work on FF latest build. Nothing shows up on the top right bar. Every other extension shows up except this one. Blank. Nothing. I have all permissions enabled. I downloaded the extra extension recommended for this as well. Still nothing appears on the FF bar.

- Rated 1 out of 5by FireFox User, 2 years agoThis app and suggested downloaded supporting downloadable content is riddled in malware. It and its supporting software are a direct gateway entry point for malware to enter your Windows operating system.
The software will give access for malware to encrypt your device or steal your personal information.
As reported by Bitdefender. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18186194, 2 years agoThis does not work anymore, at least not on pornhub. I do not want to use some companion app.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18154002, 2 years agothis app uses 90%+ of your CPU when downloading 1 file from youtube, i have noticed more and more apps are getting greedy, the one time i use my gaming pc to download a youtube video and it uses 90%+ of the cpu, how on earth can it use that much cpu, other shitbox apps(ultimate pop up blocker) use 90%+ of the ram and cpu leaving you with firefox that does nothing and windows that is unresponsive , i suggest everybody delete these hungry greedy apps asap, and use an app that takes less(less data, private info, cpu, ram, and gives you privacy
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18181345, 2 years agoThey watermark videos and use an external app, so I uninstalled and switched to savefrom.net helper. Sad to see a once-useful tool in decline.
- Rated 1 out of 5by atee, 2 years agoi used to say "excellent software that really does what it claims, cannot recommend enough!" but now i cannot recommend this software. they have added a QR code overlay and are holding downloads to ransom by demanding money to give a watermark free version. ironically they are now in contravention of UK and EU laws on copyright as adding the watermark means they are no longer just facilitating our use of this software (legal or otherwise) and now are taking ownership of potentially copyright protected by adding in the QR code watermark.
