- (2025-06-12) s f: Ok the extension seems to work (somewhat) you need to learn that to select the playhead on the track's line you have to aim lower and not on the location where it's shown. It's also a bit of hit or miss at times, but aside from that it does a decent job. What's completely out of whack is the audio which NEVER remembers the value it's been set by the user and not only that... it resets multiple times to the same low and almost unhearable volume level for some reason. In long videos that gets frustrating real fast since every few seconds you'll have to set the volume higher over and over again. Maybe someone will catch and fix this issue. Not quite sure if it's fb resetting its value or something happening periodically on the fb extension.
- (2025-06-10) Anna Kwak: Works but covering the video information on the bottom of the video viewing area making it less useful
- (2025-05-26) J J: I was so upset for the last few days. The controls only worked if manually turned on for each video. I wanted to write something bad but then I saw here, that the extension had an update. Reinstalled and everything is working again. Thanks a lot for this extension ❤️
- (2025-05-18) Philippe FRANCOIS: Hello, i can't use it anymore because you want access to my historic; and im not approving that. can you remove this part please ? Thank you
- (2025-05-18) Yousri Kenouna: You saved my ears! Edit: Down to 1 star from 5 stars The app is now requesting permission to read browsing history, why is that the case?
- (2025-03-31) Mikos: Darn thing resets the volume to max for every new loop and video. This has to be addressed before this is truly useful.
- (2025-03-07) Cliff Ford: Does its job of showing the playback control but I think it bugs the option to scroll (left-click) to the next reel
- (2025-03-05) SHARCRASH: It adds indeed a playback control bar after having made a right click and activate it but if you want to auto add those controls, the extension will ask you to read and change your data on the DB site which is a major security threat.
- (2025-01-30) Felix T.: Works very well. What I'm missing is an additional option: A function to block these video pop-ups.
- (2025-01-30) Reya Watts: Exactly what I needed
- (2025-01-06) Mark Mancera: makes the seek bar appear for facebook reels
- (2024-12-14) Michal Šotola (Šotek): It works, good job!
- (2024-11-23) nonya0: sometimes i switch window and then it stopped playing together. only resume when i switch my tab back do u think u can add it to force play no matter the active window/tab?
- (2024-11-20) Chris Fort: Previously, I refused to watch shorts or reels on FB because of the lack of video controls. Now I can enjoy the brainrot with everyone else! Thanks Facebook Video Controls!
- (2024-10-28) Adrian Muslim: Reel volume does not stay fixed and have to change volume every time I open a reel. Please fix that. 2 stars for progress bar in reels, which I also need, but not as important as proper volume control.
- (2024-09-05) Michael Paulo: Nice & simple - does what Facebook should do by default. Thanks for making this!
- (2024-08-08) Tiberiu Boros: Works like a charm
- (2024-07-02) Morem Itzum: The extension is working as advertised! Makes Facebook less annoying!
- (2024-06-29) Song Hong: Facebook being useless and we need developers to save us
- (2024-06-01) Apekiller: this should work automatically not with me activating it each time it is required.
