The only Youtube downloader that actually works. And you can forget downloading Youtube videos on any other browser. Chrome based browsers aren't allowed to enable Youtube video downloads. This addon is simple, easy to use, and it actually will download the video. Plus the developer offers great support. When Youtube recently changed something (turns out it was their encryption) that caused downloads to fail, I emailed the developer and after a few simple questions, he had it working properly again in just a few days. I've been building computers for the better part of 35 years. I've written scripts for professional software on Windows and Linux. And I'm here to tell you this is a great addon. There are only 6600 reviews out of 677k users. That's less than 1% of users posting reviews. And almost 78% of those reviews are 4 or 5 stars. You know that if the other 670k+ users were having problems, they'd be posting bad reviews here. Folks will always complain about something that doesn't work as they expect, but they often forget to praise something that just works well.

Excellent product! Works perfectly & when I needed to upgrade to pro that also worked perfectly for 1080p! Thank you!

Comme par hasard, après un ou deux downloads, un message bizarre avertit que ce n'est plus possible. Signaler un bug ? -> redirection vers une page (youtube-downloader.uservoice.com) où on est invité à donner une autorisation de cookies et... à faire un don. Je retire ce plugin tout de suite.

All too often the downloaded video will be of 0 bytes; failure rate can range from 20% to 100% (in 10 videos).
At times when other addons didn't work, this generally did, but it fails so often now that it can't be relied upon, so I can't recommend it currently

I tried the free version and was pleased with all the times that I got pro services for free. Found something I really wanted and went pro. A one time donation is totally worth everything offered.

This works like a charm if you know how to read and follow instructions. :)))

One of the most usefull add-ons

Works perfectly for me. I don't know what the bad reviews are for. I liked it enough to upgrade to the Pro version. If you use it a lot to study tutorials, etc. it is worth it, whether you use the free or Pro version. (Other extentions I've tried were much slower and buggy and often fail altogether.)

It has been a great tool for years and kept up with the changes. It is more than worth supporting, I should have done that earlier. My bad.
