User Reviews

Positives center on ease of use and strong archiving value for creators, plus responsive developer support. Repeated downsides include mandatory logins/privacy concerns, data harvesting worries, and compatibility issues with theater mode and YouTube UI, along with limited channel coverage and reliance on the provider’s site. Overall, the extension is helpful for archiving chats but faces privacy and compatibility challenges that appear across multiple reviews.
Pros
  • Easy to use and "just works" for archiving and replaying chats.
  • Great for creators to archive Twitch chats and share cross‑platform replays on YouTube; valuable for VODs.
  • Helpful for improving the viewer experience by having archived chats available.
  • Developer is responsive and provides good support when issues arise.
Cons
  • Requires login with Google, Twitch, or Discord; raises privacy and data‑sharing concerns.
  • Feels like a move to harvest user data or enforce mandatory accounts, which many users dislike.
  • Conflicts with theater mode extensions and can disrupt YouTube UI (e.g., auto-hide header issues).
  • Limited channel support; some popular channels aren’t available or supported.
  • Reliance on the extension’s site for viewing/hosting content can be inconvenient and less seamless.

Is ChatReplay Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

ChatReplay requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
