The extension has ads, ads help us make our products better.

User reviews
Works fairly well. One problem is it seems to choose one particular stream quality and there's no way to switch to a different one. This is an issue when it chooses something like 240p when a video has quality up to 1080p. It would be great if it could show all available streams and allow the user to choose one.
