Review summary

AudD's Firefox extension is praised for usable song recognition on YouTube and live streams and as a helpful, cross-browser music finder. However, many users report a paywall requirement, inconsistent identification accuracy, and disruptive issues on streaming sites (muted audio, Netflix UI problems). Regional restrictions further undermine access. Overall, its value depends on whether it works reliably for the user and their region, with subscription pressure a major downside.

Pros

Generally effective song recognition on YouTube and live streams when it functions.
Regarded by some users as the best music finder they've found so far and very helpful.
Cross-browser convenience as a Firefox extension, with users noting it works across different browsers.

Cons

Mandatory subscription/paywall to continue using features.
Inconsistent recognition performance; often mediocre or fails to identify songs.
Causes playback or site UI issues, including muting audio and Netflix controls being obscured.
Regional restrictions / sanctions blocking service in certain regions (geo-blocking).

2026-05-05	Un*****	Was nice free music identifier for firefox. Now requires registration with gmail only (don't allow any other emails). Datagrabbing trash like that can burn in hell. I would put 3 stars because sometimes it works-sometimes isn't. Right now i can't recommend it because now its just another privacy violation service. USE LIBREZAM INSTEAD!

2026-04-30	us*****	Excellent extension, it met my needs perfectly. It can identify songs directly from YouTube with precision, including some that are not available on streaming platforms.
