User Reviews
Users appreciate the add-on's extensive and improving features that enhance Twitch and YouTube experiences beyond the original platforms. However, multiple reviews express frustration that some previously free features and favorite channel previews are now locked behind a subscription paywall, which was not clearly disclosed upfront. This unexpected paywall and usage limits have led to negative feelings, with some calling the monetization practice shady. Despite this, the features themselves remain valued and recommended by users. Pros
- Offers many useful and awesome features enhancing Twitch and YouTube viewing experience
- Provides features that the original platforms do not have or are lacking
- Features are continually improved and updated
Cons
- Some favorite channels' content has been put behind a paywall after being free
- Existing free features have been moved behind a subscription paywall, which frustrates users
- The subscription requirement is not clearly disclosed on the add-on's page, leading to surprise and dissatisfaction
- Pop-ups limit free usage by warning users they have hit their free clip viewing limit
