Review Summary
Users generally appreciate YouStopper for YouTube™ as a simple, lightweight extension that effectively prevents videos from autoplaying, especially when opening videos in new tabs or multiple windows. However, many reviews report it stops working after some time, or only partially works, allowing a few seconds of playback before pausing. It often requires reinstalling or refreshing to reset its functionality. Its effectiveness varies across different YouTube pages and user setups, leading to mixed experiences.
