• (2025-07-06) ASD43521: doesnt work lol
• (2025-06-18) Mihael Lešković: Works most of the time!
• (2025-05-22) Wheeler Cowperthwaite: Doesn't actually resume downloads.
• (2025-05-22) Areon León: Don't know what kind of PICNIC users are writing these reviews, but this extension worked fantastically for me! I was trying to download the 6 GB Ubuntu ISO, and the download was crapping out every 30 seconds up to about 12% download. So, I installed this extension and it downloaded the rest without a single interruption. Thanks, dev, you saved me a massive headache! NB: For what its worth, I kept the active downloads tab open, and on screen.
• (2025-05-10) No name: Why is this add-on Featured?
• (2025-04-29) ChristianIce: It simply doesn't work.
• (2025-04-05) D4 Test: It works for a little bit, but then just completely stops
• (2025-03-24) Artur Wangchuk: So far, it works well.
• (2025-02-19) Javier Peniche: Works great!!!!
• (2025-01-24) Adam Zielinski: Doesn't work at all.
• (2025-01-18) Kirill Valikov: doesn't work
• (2025-01-07) Tanner Greenwald: Will give more stars if you give me the ability to tell it to keep trying infinitely to resume the download if it fails. Also, this doesn't work unless you activate "apply to paused items" even if the download just fails. Which kind of sucks because sometimes I want to pause downloads but I'll have to deactivate this in order to do that.
• (2025-01-06) Matthew Taylor: This may be the best a plugin can do in Chrome. I think Chrome is shutting down extension processes that keep triggering. I find it works best if I have the chrome://downloads tab open. Turn ARD of and on again occasionally to refresh it. It will run for a while, then you have to turn it off/on again and restart the downloads you want. I would love it if it just always worked, but even still, it's a huge time-saver verses restarting a bunch of downloads manually and babysitting them. So I need to occasionally refresh something that is doing most of the work. It's fine
• (2024-12-23) Miloš Milić: I was just about to say it's working and it stopped working.
• (2024-12-19) EXAMPLE_ACCOUNT_1: worked just fine for me, you can test if it works by enabling "apply to paused items", hitting apply, then pausing your item to see if it unpauses your download within the interval
• (2024-11-29) ReviewTechAfrica: dude, why does it stop downloading? it helps resume 4 times and then it gives up, so annoying! Can anyone help, what is going on here 3 stars until I get a fix
• (2024-11-11) Nik M: stable work in google chrome. Idk why so low rating
• (2024-11-07) Mythical 5th: To resume downloads automatically, an extension would have to register a listener for status changes: chrome.downloads.onChanged.addListener(). This extension does not do that, it resumes downloads when the buttons in the popup are pressed.
• (2024-10-24) Robert Roth: Absolute Nothing Happens. Even after On/Off/On - Nothing.
• (2024-10-07) David Becket: It only works sometimes.
• (2024-10-06) Owen Ganson: (On Opera) Works sometimes, but only for downloads visible in the miniature Downloads viewer (not the full tab version that shows all queued downloads), and sometimes not even that many. Also, often refuses to apply settings.
• (2024-09-19) Balvant Singh Kushwah: Work good and easy managed for making resume
• (2024-09-18) Paizal Pahmi: works well, automatically downloads failed download files again, this is useful for downloading many files with small sizes, thanks friend
• (2024-09-10) Chrystales: Doesn't work. EDIT: I recommend Free Download Manager as a potential replacement.
• (2024-09-03) EBHaenger: If it ever worked, now it doesn't anymore
• (2024-08-25) Rob G: Works on Chrome as expected.
• (2024-08-11) Simon Nasser: Love this! Thank you for the tool. Being used in a thorium browser on a windows 11 machine.
• (2024-08-01) Josh Rodgers: worked once but hasn't since. More trouble than its worth for me.
• (2024-06-21) Dante Perez Traverso: Works flawlessly on Opera GX. Thanks for making this wonderful extension.
• (2024-06-13) FancyFalcon: Works well but stops randomly for some reason and then you have to come and resume it again.
• (2024-06-01) Luke Keppler: Thank you for providing basic browser functionality. I can't believe vanilla Chrome doesn't auto-resume. Works flawlessly. Because the extension is only needed 0.001% of the time, I may keep it disabled until using it, in case resource-usage isn't as low as it could be.
• (2024-06-01) Buggs: This wasn't working for me. I made sure it was switched on as I'd noted this was mentioned in other reviews. However, it was only after 'pinning' the extension that I could access a second settings screen from the 'pin'. This screen shows the options referred to in the Overview above. I switched it on here as well, pressed 'apply' and now it works. To be honest it was really just chance that I found this out, mentioning it in the Overview would be good.
• (2024-05-22) Choengchai Phachonyut: work
• (2024-05-08) Patrick Martin: It never worked.
• (2024-03-28) Chris Dale: It only works some times. I think as mentioned before. If failed several times, it gives up. Giving one star because the Dev clearly doesn't care.
• (2024-02-12) Brendan Hinds: As mentioned by 'Liming Yuan', it does resume failed downloads, but only 4-5 times before giving up. I have to keep going back to resume the download after it has done it a small number of times.
• (2024-02-09) Kuckoo “BigNose”: This extension works fine. After installing simply pin it to your browser bar and restart Chrome. Then click on the Auto Restart icon, turn it on, and click [Apply].
• (2024-01-30) Liming Yuan: it will resume for 5 times then pause again. I have to keep on resume after 5 retry while down load 5G of file. Any way to increase the attempts to a higer value?
• (2024-01-25) Derrick brock: works as intended. Must press the extension and turn it on first
• (2024-01-13) norio norio: Not worked. Not resumes after internet connection interruption.
• (2024-01-07) Hypeman: Great extenstion, works as intended. As another reviewer said, don't listen to the people saying it's useless or not working.
• (2024-01-05) K R (Edohc): Don't listen to the goofballs saying it's useless. They forgot to open the extension, select their settings and hit apply.
• (2023-12-21) David in Thailand: Absolutely useless. Does nothing at all.
• (2023-12-11) A C: no longer works
• (2023-12-09) terry gee: Simply does not work.
• (2023-10-08) Chase Vinson: This is awesome! The reason why I got this is mainly because my internet sucks at downloading things, it's fine playing games, but downloading things with my internet is dog water. When I wanted to download something, I had to keep pressing 'resume' for HOURS ON HOURS on end! But with this, I dont have to woory about that!

• (2023-09-28) Kariuki: No longer working. I tried downloading a video from fansnub.com and it would stop and the extension wasn't restarting it.
