Complete scam. Only allows 1 video download every 2 hours unless you buy their 'premium' subscription. This was not indicated anywhere in the plugin description. Also requires installing a third-party application which seems shady...

Liked its range and operation, not so much the secondary app, but it just told me (inaccurately) that I have made 100 downloads and maybe would like to donate. Maybe I would if it wasn't tracking everything I download. As it is, I'm looking for an alternative.

Asks me to install a "companion app," which I do. Restart everything, attempt to download, and get same message. This add-on used to work. Now it's just a continuous loop of nothingness.

When it works it's great but lately it keeps demanding the companion program update. When I download the companion program it makes it about halfway and crashes. Download failed.

Which renders the original Download helper useless.

Uses your cpu to for mining

The moment i downloaded their sneaky coApp to help me download form more sources, there was always a 504 gateway problem. in the end: doesn't work... couldn't remove all parts of it after installation... sneaky

SOmetimes it is not clear what to select as download from the list but it works just fine. They do not accept Paypal so I do not donate

Было нормальным а теперь унылое говно. постоянно ему нужен какой-то компаньон! А ты то не тогада на кой, если ты не в состоянии выполнять свое прямое назначение? Мне нужно чтобы как и раньше качалось только методом через браузер!

You download something then it wants you to buy for another download, because there is something that only a paid app could do.
Yeah, no thx, other extensions are doin it for free, just unistalled.

What a load of crap, uses paid program to mux audio and video, otherwise it puts a giant QR-code in left top corner of video.

"Video DownloadHelper" extension does NOT work with SoundCloud - (As of 22/06/2018).

It used to work great with other things, however.

need additional app after first download!

Für einen Downlaod muss zusätzliche Software von einer fremden Webseite heruntergeladen werden.

This Add-on now requires their "Companion app" to be installed on your PC (outside of Firefox) in order to download anything! And that's in addition to installing the Browser Add-on (in Firefox)! This Add-on use to be great. Now it's garbage! Sorry. Until they allow you to download stuff with just the browser Add-on again (Without requiring extra software in addition to just the Add-on), This Add-on will forever remain uninstalled! User's beware!

Requires you download and install an app to your PC in order to use.

hey anon 89c i cant figure this out it used be good before upgrade i cant get it to find anything

I installed the companion app because Videodownloadhelper kept saying that it could not download videos without it.
The companion app doesn't work. There are no instructions or guides on how to get it to work, and I can't find any way to uninstall it.
