User reviews

Volume Booster Plus is widely praised for effectively increasing volume on Windows Edge, especially improving low audio sources, outperforming similar extensions. Users appreciate its ease of use and positive sound enhancement. However, multiple users report it disables fullscreen mode on sites like YouTube and Netflix, and some experience sound distortion or inconsistent activation. Additionally, its volume scaling can be unintuitive. Overall, it offers a practical solution for volume increase with some trade-offs in functionality and sound consistency.

Pros

Effectively boosts volume beyond the normal maximum, helping to hear audio more clearly even on low volume sources.
Better than other volume booster extensions tried, often cited as the best available for Edge.
Sound quality is acceptable to many users when volume is boosted, with some stating it prevents distortion as advertised.
Simple and easy to use, does exactly what it promises in terms of increasing volume.
Supports various language users, with positive feedback from diverse locations.

Cons

Prevents fullscreen mode on some video sites like YouTube and Netflix while the volume booster is active.
Volume boosting sometimes causes sound distortion and does not always maintain sound clarity as claimed by the developers.
The volume percentage is not linear; for example, 200% volume does not sound twice as loud as 100%, which can be confusing.
Inconsistent behavior reported where volume boosting works only intermittently or requires adjusting to activate again.

Recent reviews

Great volume booster. Really the only one that I found works for Windows Edge. I found that sometimes I have to increase the volume in Volume Boost in order to get it to activate again, but this is really not a problem. Much better than the trail versions that you have to eventually pay for.
