오늘 결제했는데요. 영상 우측상단에 S라고 되어있는 파란색 아이콘은 뜨는데, 그 주변으로 마우스 커서를 가져다대도 다운로드 메뉴는 안나타나요. 비공개 동영상도 다운로드 가능한게 맞나요? 모든 vimeo 동영상을 전부 다 다운받을 수 있는게 맞나요? 구체적인 사용 방법이 어디에 나와있나요? 유튜브 영상이라도 있나요? 빠른 답변 부탁드립니다.

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.

Vimego - Simple Video Downloader requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
