## Review summary

Users praise Multiselect for YouTube for bulk playlist actions, easy cross-account transfers, and export/import capabilities that save time. It remains reliable even without updates and addresses YouTube UI changes. However, some reviews note inconsistent behavior: deletions may not always happen and order may not be preserved when bulk-adding from files, and there can be browser lag with large playlists. Overall, it's a powerful time-saver with a few reliability caveats.

### Pros

- Bulk-select and quickly create or delete multiple videos into separate playlists
- Backup/copy entire playlists across Gmail/YouTube accounts
- Save playlists as a local file and import to another account
- Automatically detects the number of videos in a playlist
- Reliable operation and fixes YouTube playlist UI updates

### Cons

- Deletion occasionally does not remove videos as claimed
- Importing from a file may not preserve the intended video order
- Can cause noticeable browser lag when viewing very large playlists
