Review Summary

Many users find the Autoplay Shorts extension effective and appreciate its simplicity and cross-browser support. However, several reviews mention that videos sometimes skip the last few seconds, and autoplay does not work when the browser tab is inactive. Additionally, the extension requires a manual scroll once to activate autoplay, which some users miss, leading them to believe it doesn't work. There is also a desire for an easy toggle to control autoplay. Overall, it functions well for most with minor usability quirks.

Pros

  • Works as advertised for many users.
  • Autoplays shorts effectively after an initial manual scroll.
  • Supports multiple browsers like Chrome and Edge.
  • Simple and useful functionality appreciated by users.
  • Helpful for continuous video viewing without manual intervention.

Cons

  • Extension often skips the last few seconds of videos.
  • Does not autoplay when the tab is inactive or in the background.
  • Requires manual scroll initially to enable autoplay, which may confuse some users.
  • Some users report it does not work at all with certain browser versions.
  • Lack of an easy toggle to quickly enable or disable autoplay feature.
