★★★★★ Thomas · 24 Aug 2026Works perfect on a number of sites using MS Edge. Worth the cost.

★★★★★ Stephen · 18 Aug 2026I've tried various downloaders. This one is excellent. Gives you the option to default or to name it as you go. The interface stays out of the way, it's fast and reliable.

★★☆☆☆ S · 4 Aug 2026It's time to skip this one. Once they become popular they ALL turn to ****. It only lets you download 1 video every 3 hours.

★☆☆☆☆ BOB · 23 Jul 2026used to be great but version 10.5.10.2 Broken API Call: The version 10 update of the extension broke the callback function or API trigger that tells edge the download stream is finished. all downloads stall as partial downloads and never complete.

★★★★★ skooch · 20 Jul 20262/7/23.works almost everywhere. only issue I've is it somehow gets turned off for some reason, and i can't get it to turn on again easily.**edit**7/21/26.still my go to for video downloads made easy. grabs from almost anywhere, well worth getting the paid version. the updates that have rolled out have only made it better, and when needed the customer support has been top notch.

★★★★★ Emily · 18 Jun 2026Most straightforward software I've found to work for downloading videos from Vimeo that don't have the download option available!

How these figures are measured
Change in installs, as observed between the two crawls named in "measured over", not scaled to the window: this store refreshes its install counts only occasionally, so one refresh lands in every window at once and these figures usually read 0 in between - the weekly change in ratings under Rating above is the better signal here. A window needs a full period of history before it reports anything.
