- (2023-08-18) Gat Darn: works better now
- (2023-08-13) 1234: Amazing extension, found it by searching.
- (2023-08-11) eihab01: this was remarkable to use but as of the last update most of the features broke update: fixed :D
- (2023-08-08) Forte: There are a lot of useful features that really make Shorts customizable. But I mainly use this extension for the volume control and seekbar. Like c'mon youtube, if I want to see what happened 5 seconds ago, I have to rewatch a 30 second video to get to that part again? Bless this extension.
- (2023-08-08) CrisDoo: When autoplaying, short videos are often skipped, perhaps because the cached video is not timely, and multiple videos are skipped continuously.
- (2023-08-08) EdgeAcc: Can you give us the option to remove keybinds? I dont want any keys to attach to that extension. It might cause conflict with other extensions.
- (2023-08-07) kingdinocharge: ITS BACK, AS OF 8/7/23 IT IS UP AND WORKING AGAIN
- (2023-08-07) Szymon Niewiadomski: Yees, please make it work again with ur GUI <3 Using mouse to control the playback was the best
- (2023-08-06) Ben Johnson: You need to update the extension manually, lookup "better-yt-shorts" on github. Remove the current extension and then follow the install instructions for the updated extension.
- (2023-08-06) Céline ヅ: i love this extension , but they no longer work on my laptop , plz fix it

- (2023-07-17) Tom Cz: Nice extension. Works like expected
- (2023-07-16) Cheuk Leung: It works well. Just some suggestions. The "autoplay" should be made to pause when the user is reading the comments. And maybe it is possible to hide all the overlays, like titles, the subscribe button etc, on the video? Otherwise this is excellent.
- (2023-07-16) dilara: oh my god you are a life savior. now i dont need to wait to see a certain point again

- (2023-07-03) John Arbiter: It's a very good extension.
- (2023-07-02) V N: Nice
- (2023-06-22) Gal Zajc: Great, just works, exactly what was missing. Maybe in the future make option to remove some keybinds (cause I already use a different extension for speed control on all videos), but other than that it's a grreat extension
- (2023-06-22) SteaN: божественно
- (2023-06-20) Jakub: how are these controls not included in youtube? great extension
- (2023-06-16) Chloe Collins: THANK YOU!!! F These top media companies purposely creating restrictions to play videos 2x-3x times to waste people's lives.
- (2023-06-15) Osman Sarıbıyık: Onnnumara uzantı
- (2023-06-14) Peng L: Love the app, but I wish we could toggle the additional features separately. For example the only feature I use is the left and right arrows to seek forward/backward, and the volume bar and second counter is a bit distracting for me, so I was wondering if you could add switches for the features separately? Thanks for your work! :)
- (2023-06-08) Theo: beautiful, thank you so much
- (2023-06-02) Vladyslav Shelest: I love it, exactly what I was looking for
- (2023-06-01) Dubious Orange: Tried several extensions for Shorts and this is exactly what I was looking for. Gives me full control over shorts - not blocking them, not pushing them to a generic URL. They're still Shorts, I just now have far better control. Thank you for making Shorts usable.
- (2023-05-30) Marcelino Abou-Haidar: Wanted something to be able to seek the video and this did the trick. Thank you.
- (2023-05-27) 8k_Kaden: Does all the things you'd expect it to do with more, but it only plays videos I've already watched.
- (2023-05-15) vithujan: Youtube-shorts is now better 10000000%
- (2023-05-11) unk 1: Please add the ability to move in the video with the progress bar
- (2023-05-06) Kent: It does not work on all shorts somehow. Lke this one: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/8D9LcwK6Qyo However, it does work on other shorts
- (2023-05-06) Nadav Cohen: works
- (2023-05-05) Pineapple Praise: good

- (2023-05-01) Alfire 414: muy util, gracias!!!
- (2023-04-29) Илья Власов: Jesus, it's so much better!
- (2023-04-29) The Non Smoker: I liked it, found it useful! I've seen many extensions about YT shots where they just completely removes the section, but this one is specifically adds those features which shots simply just misses, very useful to have it, Thanks <3
- (2023-04-26) shakaraba: The best extension for Youtube Shorts that I've tried (around 6). Thanks a lot.
- (2023-04-25) Franek Kozarzewski: Naprawiło mi YT shorts i na dodatek dodało funkcje podstawowe, które YT powinien już dawno dodać
