User reviews

Users appreciate that the Last.fm Scrobbler for YouTube reliably scrobbles manually started tracks and stores them even when offline. The extension allows synchronization customization and avoids scrobbling unknown tracks. However, major issues include the absence of album data in scrobbles, failure to scrobble autoplayed videos, occasional crashing on long videos, and inconsistent performance across browsers. Some users have to reinstall the extension repeatedly due to bugs. Overall, it functions well for core scrobbling but lacks certain features and stability improvements.

Pros

Scrobbles tracks manually started by the user reliably.
Stores scrobbles even when not logged in, adding them once logged back in.
Allows configuration of synchronization time with YouTube.
Works well on updated browsers and after refreshing YouTube pages.
Scrobbles do not auto-start when artist or track is not found on Last.fm, reducing incorrect scrobbles.

Cons

Does not scrobble autoplayed tracks, only manually started ones.
Album information is missing from scrobbles, so album stats are not updated.
Causes YouTube or browser crashes on long videos for some users.
Occasionally requires reinstalling the extension due to functionality issues.
Does not work reliably in some browsers or situations, with some users reporting it simply doesn't work.

the one extension for scrobbling that actually works, but scrobbles only tracks you manually started, dont scrobbe autoplayed ones.

This has been great. I've scrobbled for 12 years now and as a stat nerd, I never have to worry abot having another 2019 with 1,259 scrobbles on the year (very low). Even not logged in, it stores them and adds when you log back in. If it's missed any, I'm not aware of it.

It works on Youtube API though just make sure to monitor ur Last.fm (Recent Tracks) if it throws any scrobbles on it also if it doesn't respond try to Clear your browsing cache and System Caches as well like on you (temp) & (%temp%) folders respectively and restart the browser for fresh start. Ure Welcome 😁
