Description from store
Built to get the most out of YouTube, this extension comes packed with all sorts of features that allow you, among other things, to control the playback speed and the volume level with the mouse wheel, automate repetitive tasks such as selecting the appropriate playback quality, configure dozens of keyboard shortcuts to control YouTube like a pro, and much more... Give it a try! But be aware that you will never want to use YouTube without it again ;)

- Latest update seems to be using too much memory. Video playback becomes very fuzzy and stutters. This also lags the whole PC. I love this extension but the latest update really do be borking things up.

- this is a fantastic extension however, since the october 23rd update, the playback speed scroll on the control bar has frequently stopped working properly could this be due to incorrect coordinate specifications? if you are reading this review please fix it

- A too advanced tool to use. It has a host of different options to control the various aspects of a youtube video which an everyday user requires but the working of the extension is a bit complicated and less user-friendly. If the developers can edit its design a bit to make it look comfortable and easily accessible or attach a more proper detailed and enabling demo use manual when we start to use it, the tool would prove to a grand success.

- Great for reverting back to the old UI! Highly recommend if you hate the recent changes.

- Moved from another youtube extension to this one. Appreciate the lack of constant ads! It also works and does a lot. Only thing I miss is the ability to change the sound with my mouse scroll wheel. Maybe there is an option. There is so many options. It's great. Thank you and love the work. (Edit)Just found the menu for the mouse scroll wheel to control the volume. Keep up the great work please!

- Thank you so much, you've saved my sanity! The new player design is simply disgusting, and you're our savior!

- it changes most of the ui to before the recent update, which is why its peak

- The "Pop-up player" seems to have stopped working again in the last few days with a message 'This video is unavailable Error code: 15', has YouTube messed around with the website again?

- I love Enhancer, for me it's an absolute must with youtube! I just wish the option to 'hide related videos' did actually work (I think the recently rubbish UI change from youtube has embedded related videos within the player to the end of videos, so you can't hide them). I also wish there was the option to choose an older nostalgic youtube icon for the webpage, I really don't like the newer icon designs. Saying that - overall it's a brilliant extension and thanks to however developed it!

- Agree with C.R., One bug I just noticed is that when I hover over the speed meter and scroll to adjust the speed , it’s not letting me change the speed using the scroll wheel, which I could do in the past. I'm using the Brave browser and have the controls within the video player. However, if I move the controls below the video player, it works fine. What happens is the mouse wheel controls the volume even while hovering over the speed control. This only happens if the control is within the video player. Tried it on Chrome and there is no problem so what is the fix for Brave browser?

- Must have expansion on every browser. One suggestion - give us an option to hide the upload button that's right next to the bell.

- Bug or Feature? I’m Confused: I’ve been using it for years, and hands down, it is a must-have add-on for YouTube. One bug I just noticed is that when I hover over the speed meter and scroll to adjust the speed (both in full and normal screen), it’s not letting me change the speed using the scroll wheel, which I could do until today. Now, it requires me to hit the Ctrl key. Have you guys changed it? Or is this due to the new YouTube UI changes? I’m still on the old UI.

- When i change youtube video to fullscreen, it shows I like this, I dislike this, Show comments and Share buttons at the bottom right, above Exit full screen (f). They show up randomly. To hide them, i have to restart Chrome, possibly several times.

- YouTube updated its interface Monday October 13th and added some functions that conflict with couple of the features in Enhancer for YouTube. For example, since the YouTube update, scrolling up or down while a full screen video pulls up extra recommended video, even if you have the up/down scroll wheel set to change volume when in fullscreen. It'll still change the volume, the but the recommended videos will also start to scroll up and down over the video. Hopefully the developer updates the app to work around that. Other than that, this has been and will continue to be one of my favorite browser extensions.

- the new UI may have broke the queue list reorder and the button to show the queue when on fullscreen other then that this extension is top tier.

- This works good, the only thing that wont work is the Hide End Cards at end of the video. i did go through settings toggled it on to make sure those end cards wont show but almost every video it will show up. other than that everything is good

- Can you add support for the new videoplayer update that was pushed today? I like the new progress bar more than the old one Also, if using mouse scrolling for volume, whenever I scroll down to reduce the volume, videos pop up from below.

- I was looking all over Reddit to find a working solution to revert YouTube's latest UI / layout / design / video player / whateverthef*ck it's called. The buttons were way too big and Idk it was kinda laggy on my potato system too? I found a post telling me that Enhancer fixes all this! I had used Enhancer very briefly not long ago but I kept it bay because of the overhead and the sluggishness it would cause on my videos whilst adding some very nice and working quality of life changes to YouTube! I installed this extension again today and so far I don't see any performance drops to speak of, and I am SO HAPPY THE OG LAYOUT IS BACK!!!! :DDDDD

- The best enhancer out there by far. The ability to boost the audio without distortion and having speed step all easily available is amazing. The ability to set your resolution is very helpful. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

- This extension is obviously for tech savvy users, which I am not. It has no search box. I am looking allover but cannot find a control for font size. Shouldn't it be in the "appearance" section? If it doesn't have this control then I am wasting my time looking for something that doesn't exist! SO BLASTED FRUSTRATING!!!

- Really like the numerous options it gives you to customize Youtube the way you want (It even supports custom css, which I'm not using, but it is still cool). I also really needed the option to hide Youtube Shorts, It was so annoying having them taking 60% of my screen whenever I was scrolling through recommendations.

- Love this app, plenty of options that helped a lot to streamline and help with playback. One option I would love to have is to remove the Members only videos that are displayed.

- please fs the last option that s called [Use the available space based on the viewport dimensions to expand the video player] and make it forcing to hide the top banner with the youtube icon its so difficult to watch a video coz it keeps scrolling automatically

- When this extension is working, which is usually its normal operating status, its one of the greatest extensions available. Absolutely the best youtube extension. Hence my 5 star rating... Unfortunately, right now, since the last YT ui update about a month ago(?) its not working so great. Hopefully we get an update soon which alleviates some of the more irritating issues.
