User Reviews
Users appreciate that the Live cat add-on can save important videos and works well with most video formats, providing unique capabilities compared to other tools. However, multiple reviews highlight its ineffectiveness on Windows 7 and certain browsers, lack of support for webm files, and incomplete video downloads, limiting its reliability for longer videos. Pros
- Successfully saves important videos for users.
- Works well for downloading most videos.
- Unique functionality not found in other extensions (e.g., Video DownloadHelper).
Cons
- Ineffective or useless on Windows 7 and some browsers.
- Does not support downloading webm video formats.
- Only downloads short segments (e.g., first 8 seconds) instead of full videos.

Great extension. Finally, I can uninstall the Google Chrome browser because this extension allows me to download HLS videos. Glory and honor to Ukraine!

Is Live cat Safe?
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.
Live cat requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
