User reviews

Users praise Video Speed Controller for its simplicity, reliability, and ability to customize video playback speeds beyond standard options, enhancing viewing efficiency especially for educational content. It supports many platforms but lacks full compatibility with some sites like WebinarGeek and TikTok. A noted drawback is the absence of site-specific default speed settings, causing users to adjust speeds manually across different sites, which some find inconvenient.

Pros

Allows users to watch videos at faster speeds, including speeds higher than default options (e.g., 2x, 2.5x, 3x).
Simple and easy to use interface, appreciated by many users.
Works on multiple platforms such as Google Drive, YouTube Music, Panopto, and various video sites.
Highly reliable and consistent, with many users depending on it daily for educational and other content.
Offers control and flexibility over video playback speeds beyond the native player options.

Cons

Does not work on some specific platforms like WebinarGeek and TikTok.
Lacks the ability to set site-specific default playback speeds, causing inconvenience.
Automatically activates on all videos or audio, which some users find uncomfortable and must manually adjust.
Occasional priority conflicts or compatibility issues with certain sites were 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.

Video Speed Controller requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
