Review Summary
This extension is highly valued for its unique feature of showing timestamped YouTube comments, enhancing viewing experience. Users praise the developer's commitment to maintaining the extension. However, recurring issues include API key and quota limitations causing the extension to stop working, difficulty displaying multiple comments at the same timestamp, and annoying sound notifications. Requests for improvements include better UI controls, sound customization, and interactive comment features. Despite some flaws, it remains a favorite tool for those who use it regularly.
Pros
- Unique and useful functionality for showing timestamped comments on YouTube videos not found in other extensions.
- Developer actively maintains and fixes the extension when it stops working, showing good support.
- Enables watching YouTube videos with enhanced insight by displaying relevant comments at specific times.
- Works well on multiple browsers including Brave and Firefox (though Firefox support is requested).
- Users find it indispensable and highly appreciate the feature once they use it.
Cons
- Extension sometimes stops working due to API quota issues or key requirements, causing frustration among users.
- Display issues when multiple comments share the same or close timestamps, preventing all comments from showing properly.
- Sound notification is considered annoying or too loud; users want ability to customize or upload their own sounds.
