## Review summary

Users like that the add-on can remember per-site volume and works well on some sites (notably Facebook/9gag/YouTube). However, multiple reviews report limited site support, unreliable persistence of saved volumes, and buggy behavior (random changes, clunky slider, or total silence). Overall useful when it works but inconsistent and site-limited.

### Pros

- Remembers and restores per-site volume preferences (can set different volumes per site).
- Works well on some popular sites (several users report success on Facebook, 9gag and YouTube at times).
- Helps prevent sudden loud audio on sites where it functions (useful for avoiding loud ads or unexpected volume).

### Cons

- Limited site compatibility — many users report it doesn't work on numerous sites (Rumble, SoundCloud, WhatsApp Web, Duolingo, Google Meet and others).
- Inconsistent persistence — saved volume can be lost after a short time, when scrolling to the next video, or after a session.
- Buggy/clunky behavior — reports of random volume changes, a clunky slider, and in some cases the extension silencing all audio.
