- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12264297, 5 years agoI've tried 'em all, and this one is THE BEST extension at what it does.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16857522, 5 years agoIt is a godsend. Very easy to use, and works on almost every website except YouTube and Instagram, for which there are alternatives anyway.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Marita, 5 years agoI love this app/extension. Hands down, the BEST video downloader, for all websites except YouTube. So easy to use and lots of file type options for saving files.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Ron, 5 years agoThis is the best video download app currently available for Firefox. It has been around for quite some time and is well-maintained!

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14344717, 5 years agoAmazing add-on/app. I have literally never had an issue with it. I will digress in that it does take someone with what I would call "average" technical skill to operate. However, I use this almost daily. GREAT for pulling down videos that aren't able to save/download, videos that are password protected (i.e. zoom accounts).
Amazing work. Keep it up! ^_^ - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14690362, 5 years ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by harl windwolf, 5 years agoWhy does the "downloadhelper coapp" start automatically (even re-starts when it's killed) and then ominously transmit tiny amounts of data every few seconds (to a Dutch IP, port 8088).
There's nothing to be downloaded, processed or otherwise and I didn't even touch the button or visit a relevant webpage to begin with.
5 stars for the add-on itself for being able to download videos from pages that don't provide a native way to download their videos (or streams).
It works well altogether, but the co-app's behaviour seems very suspicious at times.
Edit (2021/07/06): The VdhCoapp also not just starts seemingly randomly, but is also started whenever a "streamed" video is on the webpage, whether it is needed or makes sense at all or not.
The only situation the coapp should be started is when downloading (and converting) a video (or stream) *actually* needs it, but certainly not when the webpage is rendered.
There should be an option to force VDH to completely ignore the coapp even when it's installed and recognised.
