The add-on coerces users to download a companion app. The video files for which it suggests it's companion app is required are easily downloadable by the direct http address of the video, proving further that the app uses disinformation to achieve its goal of installation of its "companion app".

The companion app analysis is shown here which contains a range of malware activities;

Malware the add-on attempts to make users download; https://github.com/aclap-dev/vdhcoapp/releases/download/v2.0.10/vdhcoapp-2.0.10-win7-x86_64-installer.exe

    The best download videos I ever work

    Up to version 9.5.0.2, this was a brilliant extension. The cluttered interface and the extremely limited customisation options in version 10 forced me to downgrade to version 9.5.0.2. I have disabled updates for this extension.

    I found out about this add on around two hours prior to writing this review and I already feel confident in giving it five stars.

    I've already made use of it in downloading two different series and so far have found no issues in quality.

    The need to have the video playing is a little inconvenient for bulk downloads but for what it offers it does so quite well.

    Absolute gem of an add-on. It works almost everywhere there's a non-DRM video.

    Thanks for a "fare" premium. We have been using your add-on FREE for a while...we are grateful.

    heute ... 2026.08.09.
    die Neue Version .. hat ein neues Aussehen ..
    die Angabe .. das hier YT Videos downloaded werden können ... ist nicht richtig.
    die Vorschau zeigt an .. dass sie es versucht .. aber man kann es selbst nach Stunden sehen, es tut sich gar nichts.
    selbst abbrechen funktioniert nicht .. es läuft sich fest .. Browser neu starten ..
    es gibt zum Glück .. Seiten, die ohne Probleme YT Videos downloaden ..
    diese Version .. ist nicht hilfreich & will Geld haben .. sorry .. no way.
    engl.
    The new version... has a new look...
    The claim... that you can download YouTube videos here... is incorrect.
    The preview shows... that it's trying... but even after hours, you can see that nothing is happening.
    Even canceling it doesn't work... it freezes... restart the browser...
    Luckily, there are... sites that download YouTube videos without any problems...
    This version... isn't helpful and wants money... sorry... no way.
