User reviews
Users find Flow Chat for YouTube Live a valuable extension that mimics NicoNico-style chat overlays, enhancing live stream experience across devices. However, multiple users report problems after YouTube UI changes causing chat display failures, especially when logged in with channel accounts. Some also experience video playback freezes and compatibility issues with other chat extensions. Despite bugs like limited settings interface and lack of chat replay support, its customization options and utility make it highly appreciated among livestream viewers.
Pros
- Provides a NicoNico-like live experience on YouTube, enhancing livestream viewing with floating chat comments.
- Useful and convenient for both PC and Android devices, allowing chat display overlay while watching videos.
- Allows customization such as adjusting chat text size and display lines.
- Highly appreciated by users who enjoy interactive live chat experiences during streams.
- Can be used alongside other extensions with some configuration efforts.
Cons
- Extension stopped working properly after YouTube UI updates, causing chat flow issues especially for channel accounts.
- Videos may stall or freeze when the extension is active, leading some users to uninstall it.
- Display and settings pages sometimes have bugs or limitations, such as inability to maximize settings window.
- Compatibility issues exist with other chat-related extensions, requiring manual toggling to coexist.
- Cannot display chat on past live streams; only works on live streams currently. Users request more speed and display customization options.

Jack, 2025-01-24助かってます。
これ、以前はチャット欄非表示にしても文字流れましたが今はチャット欄非表示したら流れるのも消えるようになったんですね。少し大きい画面で観たいとき便利だったのですがYouTube側の変更でしょうか。

いっちーDCH, 2025-01-19自分の環境では問題なく弾幕の動作・設定は出来ますね。アカウントとか切り替えることはしないのでその辺の動作は分かりませんが。
ちなみにGoogleChrome拡張機能突っ込めるAndroidのブラウザ(KiwiBrowzar)にも入れられるので、スマホでも弾幕流せるのでPC・スマホでもお世話になってます。
HyperChat(拡張機能:チャット欄の軽量化)とデフォルトで併用出来ないのが残念。
一応生配信なら、HyperChatオフで弾幕を開始→チャットをホップアウト→ポップアウトしたチャット欄のHyperChatを有効化
一手間かかりますが、これで私の環境ではHyperChatと弾幕の共存ができました。
便利な拡張機能なのでいつもお世話になってます。
