The idea and the work put into it, definitely deserves a 5-star rating. However, due to recent YT changes, the extension does not work anymore... Hope the developer behind this project sees the users pointing this out, and maybe he may find a way to fix it, again and again :) Thank you for your work. Regards

Does NOT work. BEWARE!!! Likely a trojan extension to steal information.

18/04/2025 doesn't work on Chrome

Jason Wisdom 2025-04-11

If this works I must be dumb b/c I've installed it on both Edge and Chrome latest versions and no matter how many times I click the button, the video stays on.

CHARA DREEMURR 2025-03-29

You said on the 14th of March that you fixed it but it's not working as of the 29th of March, not sure what's going on just letting you know

Aranya Kalia 2025-03-26

Not working, not sure if I am using it correctly. We just have to download the extension, switch it "on" and it should work, right?

NOT WORKING ON BRAVE

Vic Roberts 2025-03-10

Stopped working. Was working fine for years on Chrome version Version 116.0.5845.187 (Official Build) (x86_64) High Sierra 10.13.6

After testing using the net-internals chrome tools, the extension appears to indeed lower overall data usage. With a ~6 minute video (144p, static image video) using the extension showed 4338 KB used on average, while 7588 KB was used without the extension. Hopefully this helps to clear up anyone's doubts. It would be nice if the replacement splash screen were customizable, for example having just a black screen instead of having the text displayed. Great extension otherwise. Edit: The video is now replaced with the thumbnail which I think this a nice compromise. 5 stars! Edit2: No longer works.

Hi, Thank you for your hard work. I really appreciate it. It's not working now, but I have used it well for a long time and am very grateful! Please keep up the good work.

Gage Spell 2024-08-23

It used to work great, but as of late it stopped working. The dev will need to update it to be compatible with the latest YouTube version I'm assuming.

Jason Stephen 2024-07-03

Stopped working again unfortunately as of 07th Feb 2024. Edit: Was working for a few months but as of 04th July it's not been working for atleast a week now. Due to the unpredictable status of this extension and very few (if any) updates from the developer, uninstalling and replacing with Music Mode for YouTube which seems to work much better than this.
