Die neue Version (2025-10) läuft äußerst stabil und die bedienung ist wirklich übersichtlich und intutiv.

Eines der nützlichsten Mozilla-Addons, die ich kenne. Schnell, zuverlässig, kinderleicht zu bedienen. Einfach toll.

giant qr code in the corner of all videos downloaded

Video DownloadHelper is much faster than most alternatives. It is reliable, though I sometimes need to reload the page to get it to connect to the needed video. Results are high quality (1080p, or the native resolution of the clip). The watermark is not an problem for me, but I have now purchased the license anyway.
[ADDENDUM] With the license, downloads are noticeably faster. Also, when a video site changes its download protocols, it seems that the licensed version adapts more quickly.

Good for local file downloads.👍
Cons: Doesn't work for URLs with "live" in the name.
Example:
www.youtube.com/live/jOd7XgeQ4SA

It would be nice if this were fixed.

Great app. You can easily set it up on Windows (same with Linux with a little bit of work). Very convenient when you want to download something for a road trip that may not have the greatest internet.

Adds a GIANT QR code to the downloaded video unless you pay 20€. NOT WORTH IT

Brilliant tool - it would be cool to be able to resume interrupted downloads and cancel and save of ongoing downloads...

non funziona su tutto ma sulla maggioranza dei video. ho avuto problemi su solo alcuni video youtube lunghi.

Ich benutze den Helper seit vielen Jahren und bin immer noch begeistert. Für mich gibt es nichts zu meckern.

В последнее время приложение не работает, пишет Download failed. Sadly we failed at downloading that specific media.

You want $30 for software that doesn't do the job it advertises? That's egregious.
