User Reviews

The add-on shows a strong overall positive reception, with many reviews stating it works reliably and integrates with yt-dlp/youtube-dl. However, there are notable drawbacks: some users experience inconsistent functionality and missing/partial exports, and the extension lacks container tab support, requiring private windows to collect correct cookies. These issues limit reliability for a subset of users.
Pros
  • Works reliably and generally as described across many reviews.
  • Compatible with yt-dlp and youtube-dl for cookie export workflows.
Cons
  • Not working consistently for some users; reports of inconsistent exports and failures.
  • Not container-aware; requires using a private window to fetch the correct cookies and does not support Firefox container tabs.

Is Export Cookies 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.

Export Cookies requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. 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.
