User reviews

still lovely, not sure why chrome wants to remove it, but if you have it keep it, never let this go.

Excellent! Does what I need (mostly): to download PDF's off of sites. Recommended.

Matthew Dunn, 2025-03-03

I've used this extension for years and supported it financially because it's been so useful to me. I've been transitioning more and more to Firefox because Chrome's data harvesting is getting to monopolistic. Happy to see DownThemAll is still supported on Firefox. Just cements my resolve to stop using Chrome. *IF* Chrome made specific claims, other than just "best practices" aren't being followed, I'd be more inclined to give them another chance. Vague claims make me suspicious about ulterior motives.
