- (2022-12-11) Richard Lievesley: Doesn't work
- (2021-11-16) Vocals Videos: The only extension that i found that it works in my windows 10 home in 64, thank you so much to who made this from Málaga, Spain.
- (2021-02-06) Simon Cheng: Nov. 2018 OP: Works. And the additional rating preview function is great. Feb. 2021 Edit: Honestly surprised (and glad) that the rating preview function on this extension still works. I uninstalled this extension in favour of another one back in 2019 IIRC, and that one stopped working last year. Back to this one I guess.
- (2020-12-14) Bass Cossack: sometimes, takes another reload, but it works... compared to "others"...

- (2018-09-05) Reijav: Solo funciona bien el "rating preview", NO el "video preview".
- (2018-08-17) TRY IT EASY: nice
- (2018-07-02) H S: It often shows preview of older videos.
- (2018-06-15) Viet Nguyen: Almost all thumbnail videos in youtube were disappeared. After installing this extension, they come back. Thank you very much.
- (2018-06-03) Used this extension on both Chrome & Firefox. I like seeing a preview of the video, and the simple rating bar. The only small problem, is that if you go through a lot of channels, the bar does not show up for a minute or so.

- (2017-12-15) Gersivan Oliveira: Versão: 2.2.9 Se tornou Útil após a atualização.
- (2017-10-15) john gerity: WRONG THUMBNAIL! Often changes the thumbnails in the Recomended/Up Next column. Similar to the Netflix bug where the wrong description shows up on a show or movie. VERY frustrating when you want to see what video the thumbnail is from but can't find it.
- (2017-07-19) Marcos Freitas: Otimo
- (2017-07-15) Mister Yosef: The App keeps getting better! Before, the extension would show three preview images from the video, Now it actaully shows a small segment of the video! played in the thumbnail. 10/10 A+++
- (2017-07-11) Rabbitos: Worked perfectly. Now Youtube does this on its own! So no need to get this anymore. :)
- (2017-06-27) Sam Friedman: Shows very few image previews (looks like a slideshow of 4 images) and often shows the wrong video. Also, it seems to be breaking YouTube sometimes for me, however I can't be certain if it's this extension in particular.
- (2017-06-19) Atrium Domy: It used to work perfectly, but some time ago it gone wrong or crash. Now it seems to show frames from diferent videos, no match. Preview shows lion figting, but when u click on it it shows cooking tips, have no idea whats going on
- (2017-06-01) Danusty I: The best! let's you verify if the video is what you were actually looking for; also includes ratings preview. I will never fall for fake videos again!
- (2017-05-15) Paul Comanici: Last update: May 16, 2017 Version 2.2.8 - as of May 16 (2017) it supports old & new YouTube UI General: - 3 thumbnails on mouse hover for any video; - rating bar on the top of every thumbnail; - Wiki page: https://github.com/darkyndy/YoutubeVideoPreview/wiki. - sync settings across different computers;
