- Rated 1 out of 5by Wolf, 2 years agoUsed to be great, I used to love this downloader. Now though? Now it slaps a GIANT QR code taking up literally 30% of the screen. Previously it was a watermark which was fine. But a giant watermark? What absolute garbage is this? And keep in mind this is ON TOP OF it making you download a program to your computer.
Honestly if you need a video, just screen record it. This is NOT going to work very well for you. Trust me.
Funny thing is I would happily donate to them if they were actually struggling but if you render the video I downloaded LITERALLY USELESS then no. Forget that. There are other options out there. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18678153, 2 years agoSuddenly there's a massive QR code in the corner of downloaded videos, which the extension tries to make you believe was always there before but it wasn't as I have used this extension for many years, and if you want to remove these QR codes you must pay $30 for a "conversion license". Complete and utter BS. I'll be moving onto other alternatives.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Reed Hastings, 2 years agoI'm really tired of add ons like this not being honest, and mis-leading people in some way by promising us a free product which turns out to not really be free.
So-called "freemium" products (like this add on) should be fully transparent about it with people upfront and say "hey - you're not really getting a free lunch here", by us slapping an enormous watermark on to any video that's downloaded; and then - holding the file up hostage (with said watermark) until we "pony up the dough" for premium membership.
If you're not giving anyone a free product anymore than just say so dudes - preferably on your main add on page; so people like me are aware about it and about what we're adding onto our systems.
And as if all that wasn't bad enough - you require a third party app to be installed and "meshed into the cookie mix" of your product, by requiring a "companion app" which makes users download two programs to do one thing.
So.... you're expecting people to add a second add on to compliment yours - just so the thing works right, and then..... expect us to PAY for it on top of that also? Really? - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18677367, 2 years agoFirst it asks me to download an app. Then I download a video...AND IT HAS A GIANT WATERMARK TAKING UP 30% OF THE SCREEN.....I CALL BS
- Rated 1 out of 5by Jonathan, 2 years agoThe new version is useless unless you pay $$$. Just remove the useless version and download version 8.2.2.8 from addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/video-downloadhelper/versions/ then turn automatic updates off.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14399696, 2 years agoI paid the membership fee and still I get the watermark. Why?
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18676702, 2 years agoJá foi bom. Ultimamente tem deixado muito a desejar. Além da velocidade de downlod estar muito baixas, vídeos muito longos ficam incompletos.

- Rated 1 out of 5by catgav, 2 years agoДля работы требует установить дополнительное "расширение-спутник". На самом деле качает экзешник, в котором сидит троян.

- Rated 1 out of 5by SwimmingLink, 2 years agoThis no longer detects anything listed in the "Detect extensions" list. All I wanted was to grab a subtitle file which I know had worked in version 8.1. All versions of 9 are completely broken. Subtitle support was dropped. Audio support was dropped. Video chunk support was dropped.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Jordan, 2 years agoThey added a big QR code to downloaded videos. Useless now unless you pay them.
