User reviews
Pros
- Effectively forces YouTube videos to play in desired HD quality, overriding YouTube's automatic reduction.
- Simple and user-friendly with minimal configuration needed, working automatically.
- Lightweight extension that doesn't significantly affect browser performance.
- Supports working in incognito (private) mode, unlike some other similar extensions.
- Allows users to select video quality, including 1080p at 60fps and lower qualities, catering to diverse needs.
Cons
- Lacks finer resolution control; cannot specify exact resolutions (e.g., fixed FHD only) or maximum desired quality, leading to occasional unwanted 4K/8K selections.
- Does not always work consistently; some users report it fails or functions only half the time.
- Fails to prevent YouTube from automatically reducing quality below HD in some cases.
- Compatibility issues with certain browsers such as Vivaldi were reported.
- Occasional video playback bugs such as repeating videos have been noted.

Extension safety
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.
Auto HD|LQ for YouTube™ requires very minimum permissions.
