User Reviews

User feedback is mixed: many praise its PiP convenience and multitasking usefulness, while recurring complaints are that it requires a separate desktop app, has inconsistent YouTube support, and can be unreliable for some users.

Pros

Provides picture-in-picture functionality that works well for many users (some report flawless use, including YouTube).
Useful for multitasking — users report watching videos on a second monitor or while doing other tasks.
Convenient PiP access on video sites (helpful where native PiP/right-click PiP is limited).

Cons

Requires a separate desktop app to be installed and running — many users complain about this requirement.
Inconsistent YouTube support — multiple users report it does not work on YouTube, while others say it does.
Unreliable behavior for some users — several reviews say it’s not working or has intermittent problems.

Recent reviews

Forces you to download third party app. What the fuck even is going on here?

by Ja*****, 2025-10-08

You need to install a separate desktop app AND it requires a premium subscription to open any video directly in PiP, without the app opening every time (as well as for other features). Really terrible user-experience.
