User reviews

Users find Floating Video Player very useful for floating and resizing videos across many websites, including those without native picture-in-picture support. It effectively enables multitasking while watching videos, which is highly appreciated. However, multiple users report missing features like remembering window position preferences, lack of playback controls such as progress bar and seeking, and issues with subtitle support. Additionally, some platforms like MS Teams calls are not supported. Users suggest improvements including adding keyboard shortcuts, fullscreen mode, and better control options to enhance usability.

Pros

Works on many websites that do not support built-in picture-in-picture functionality
Simple and fulfills the basic purpose of floating video playback
Helpful for multitasking while watching videos

Cons

Cannot remember user preferences such as initial window position
Lacks essential playback controls like progress bar and seek functionality
Does not support subtitles properly
Does not work on some platforms like MS Teams calls

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.

Floating Video Player requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing an Edge add-on.
