- (2025-02-09) Abhinav: Awesome
- (2024-10-08) Shaun Kim: Works great as described. Would it be possible to add an option to hide top search bar as well during theatre mode?
- (2024-10-04) Matheus Souza: Works perfectly, great extension!! This should be applied by default on youtube :)
- (2024-08-25) Cheon: It's a must for ultrawide users like 21:9 or 32:9 monitors. Now I feel suffocated without it.
- (2024-08-25) Aadu Herkus Krabat Kiir Velner: Works perfectly, even in livestreams 🙌
- (2024-04-22) Steven Petroni: Perfect
- (2024-02-28) Pedro Ribeiro: Yesterday a bug happened, and the screen became huge even in theater mode, I hid the favorites bar and it returned to normal, HAPPYLY I looked and there is an extension for exactly that bug... 👏👏

- (2024-01-19) Elan Pillai: Excellent, this is a very nice little plugin. It's great to have access to the source code on GitHub as well. I've given it 5 stars and subscribed. I appreciate that there's no longer a separate button or other unnecessary marketing additions. Thank you again.
- (2024-01-14) Vincen't: You are amazing. 5 stars + star on GitHub
- (2023-12-14) Nicolas Favre: Exactly what I was looking for. Nice and easy Plug & Play.
- (2023-10-06) Chris Johnson: No setup just install and it works perfectly, I can now setup a quarter of my screen to be a perfect video box without having to use pop-out player which has its own issues!

- (2023-09-24) Cristian Randle: Fullscreen is broken with this extension. Half the screen is the video, and the other is whats below the video.

- (2023-09-14) Ryan Blanchard: Update September 14 2023. Working again. --------------------------------------- Update August 18 2023. Not currently working for me... maybe due to a new version of Chrome? --------------------------------------- I was using "YouTube Windowed FullScreen" extension... which is pretty good and did do what it's supposed to do. At the same time, not going to lie, this extension is pretty good too I'd say... with this one you can also scroll the page down, even with the video in expanded theater (or in "windowed fullscreen") mode. I guess I fiddle with them and see which one I like better. I'd say they're both good. At any rate, it worked and I haven't had any issues with it so far. 5/5!

- (2022-05-11) Lucky dog: Finally one that actually works properly. Not off-centered, doesn't mess up when going from cinema mode to fullscreen, no separate ugly button.. Best version that's out there! <3
