User reviews

Users appreciate Volume Booster for effectively amplifying low audio levels, helping with weak speakers or quiet videos, and its simplicity in use. Many praise its ability to identify audio-playing tabs and resolve volume issues on platforms like YouTube. However, a common drawback is that it disrupts full-screen video playback by keeping browser elements visible. Additionally, some note that boosted volume can degrade audio quality, and the extension may sometimes fail or ignore tab muting settings. Despite these issues, it remains a popular and useful tool for enhancing audio volume in the browser.

Pros

Effectively boosts audio volume for quiet videos or weak speakers.
Helps identify which tab is playing audio when multiple tabs are open.
Works well for old or low-quality headphones and videos with low volume.
Useful for increasing volume on platforms like YouTube and fixing low volume issues.
Simple and does what it promises, enhancing the listening experience.

Cons

Prevents videos from entering full-screen mode properly; browser UI remains visible when trying to fullscreen.
Sometimes causes audio quality degradation, making sound 'crispy' or low quality when volume is increased.
In some cases, it doesn't work or is inconsistent in boosting volume.
Conflicts with tab muting features, ignoring muted tabs.
Potential compatibility issues causing subtitles to repeat or browser search engine changes (reported once).
