User reviews

Users generally find the extension simple, effective, and beneficial for multitasking with videos, praising its ease of use and reliability. However, several mention missing features such as forward/backward buttons, volume control in the PiP window, subtitle support, and better cross-site compatibility. The icon's poor visibility in dark mode and lack of multiple PiP video support are common drawbacks. Overall, it is valued but could be improved by adding more playback controls and enhanced usability features.
Pros
  • Simple and easy to use with effective functionality.
  • Allows users to watch videos while working, enhancing productivity and entertainment.
  • Works well on popular sites like YouTube and Movistar TV.
  • Highly appreciated by users for its intended purpose of floating video playback.
  • Good adjustment features and stable performance.
Cons
  • Lacks advanced controls like forward/backward skipping and volume control on the PiP window.
  • Icon visibility issues, especially in dark mode where it becomes nearly invisible.
  • Limited functionality across multiple tabs and sites; no support for some platforms like Disney Plus.
  • No subtitle support or control over playback like speed adjustments within the PiP window.
  • Does not support multiple PiP videos simultaneously or automatic PiP features as seen in Firefox.

Excellent extension, does what it says - intend on donating, thank you dev for your work. I will add a 5th star once you're able to use it in different tabs, across multiple videos (ala the Firefox implementation of this feature).

Хоч би в одному застосунку додали функцію що б мишка проходилас крізь виведене вікно, скопіювали у інших і все
