by kurokubi, 5 years agoTbh, this add-on isn't very useful anymore purely for the fact that website version of youtube now does everything this add-on does. I'm giving it four stars because it is extremely useful and convenient had youtube not updated to do similar/the same things. The only thing that this add-on does that youtube does not is that this changes a videos ratio/size to be smaller so it appears clearer/higher resolution. A lot of negative reviews complain that it causes videos to be stuck as a small box in the corner of the screen or that it makes the video unable to go full screen. What they probably did and ont realize is that they set the resolution for the add-on to 2440p(4k) and tried to watch a video that's highest resolution is only 480p-720p. The add-on can't upscale the video's quality and magically add 8,294,400 pixels of detail and information it neither had nor was even programmed to find and jigsaw together onto however many frames-per-second in real-time in the first place either... especially not for free.

As of Jun 30, 2026 Add-on is NON-FUNCTIONAL.
The « YouTube Auto HD + FPS » Add-on is currently Functional and has Many More Features, I suggest that Add-on instead. - Rated 1 out of 5by Hx, a month agoJust doesn't work. Not on shorts or full videos, quality still rubbish and defaulting to auto or low despite decent internet and using this extension with all permissions allowed.

- Rated 1 out of 5by fasscass, a month agoDoesn't do anything, YouTube keeps picking quality by itself
- Rated 1 out of 5by Venator, 2 months agoConstantly asks for permissions to read/change data on all websites and puts a green dot on the UI about it.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19768633, 3 months agoThere's no reason it needs permissions to read/change data on all websites, but yet it asks for it...

- Rated 4 out of 5by Keaton42, 6 months agoFor some reason it keeps switching to normal mode instead of theater, even when I ask it to stay in theater mode. Other than that, pretty great!
- Rated 5 out of 5by kevinz, 7 months agoThank you for adding this extension. It has a feature Google refuse to implement. It is so stupid how Youtube doesn't let you set a preferred resolution
