Review Summary
Users praise SoundFixer for effectively fixing audio issues like unbalanced sound and increasing volume for clearer listening, especially on YouTube and various browsers. The extension is appreciated for its simplicity, small size, and free availability. However, multiple users note the inconvenience of having to reset audio settings repeatedly as the extension lacks pinned or global settings. Some mention compatibility issues on specific sites like Rumble on macOS and express interest in having a standalone app version for broader audio support.

Cons

- Does not work on certain platforms or sites like Rumble on macOS.
