User reviews

Users generally find Volume Booster Plus effective for increasing volume on individual webpages, which helps especially with video lectures and audio content. It is praised for its simplicity and reliability. However, multiple users report issues with fullscreen video playback being blocked or glitchy when the extension is active, and some experience problems with audio distortion or total sound mute. Compatibility with platforms like YouTube and Netflix is also inconsistent. Despite these drawbacks, users appreciate it as a valuable tool when other volume boosters fail.

Pros

Effectively boosts volume on individual webpages, improving audibility for videos and lectures.
Simple and easy to use, reliable volume increase as promised.
Works well on various platforms and is recommended for those needing volume enhancement.
Provides a solution for users who found other volume boosters ineffective.

Cons

Causes issues with fullscreen mode on video players, making fullscreen unavailable or problematic while enabled.
Does not work consistently on some sites like YouTube and Netflix.
Can cause irregular or distorted audio output after recent browser updates.
In some cases, it completely mutes the sound rather than boosting it.

This one actually changed the individual webpage volumes, and I'm actually able to properly hear my professor's video lectures on canvas because of this. Many others didn't work for me, but this one, this one's different.

Well. I gotta give these programmers credit. It does what it says it should do. Allow you to increase the volume on a webpage.

Works, but not loud enough even if set to max boost. One issue is that when it is activated, I cannot full screen the embeded video in my browser.
