User reviews

Librezam is praised as the only effective song recognition extension for Firefox, working well on platforms like YouTube Shorts, Twitch, and Twitter. While users find the interface unattractive, the core functionality is reliable and appreciated. However, some experience issues like infinite spinning or failures often related to Firefox Container Tabs settings, occasional duplicated audio, and sudden breaks requiring updates. Overall, it stands out among Firefox extensions for song recognition despite minor usability and compatibility hiccups.

Pros

Effectively recognizes songs on various platforms like YouTube Shorts, Twitch, and Twitter.
Uniquely functional as a song recognition extension for Firefox compared to others that fail or are buggy.
Performs well even with a basic or less appealing user interface.
Helps identify tracks that lack visible information or track IDs.
Users appreciate its core functionality of song recognition working reliably when configured correctly.

Cons

User interface (GUI) is considered unattractive or 'dog' but not a major problem.
Extension may spin indefinitely or fail, especially when used with Firefox Container Tabs unless permissions are adjusted.
Sometimes duplicates audio output causing issues.
Stopped working suddenly for some users, indicating it may need updates or maintenance.
May not function unless user is on the same page as the audio source for recognition to work.

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.

Librezam(latest version rejected by mozila now) requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
