| 2024-11-05 | Faith | | It's really annoying, the fact when I'm going to watch important videos on Khan Academy, it turns on. It does this for, every, single, video I even touch. (Not just Khan academy) I don't like when I have to unpause it every time. McAfee, can you just put mods so it wouldn't pause on every single one? After that, I will use it again. |

| 2023-01-04 | F | | Only works correctly when it wants too. On various different websites videos play even though I have it set with access to all websites. It's frustrating because I have to pause the videos and sometimes multiple vids on single site. |
| 2023-01-02 | dennis | | Web Boost installed automatically. It also prevented iHeart radio from playing, even when I selected the play button for audio! I turned off web boost and now I can listen to music again! I hope turning it off doesn't create other problems as I am not very computer savvy. |
| 2022-06-08 | Waleed | | Thanks for such an amazing extension |
| 2022-04-16 | Corbin | | I have just installed the addon. it has performed the install well with no errors. More stars or less as I evaluate its performance. |
| 2022-03-21 | Justin | | I haven't had any issues with this app/extension. Its blocked trackers, websites that were trying to "allow access" or "give permission" as well as pop-ups. So far, it's done its job in my opinion. |
