User Reviews

Video Resumer is praised for resuming playback from the last position and for desktop reliability, filling a gap YouTube leaves. It’s considered convenient and a must‑have by many. However, Android support is inconsistent, and several users report reliability issues or regressions. Common feedback also calls for additional settings (minimum duration, site exclusions like YouTube Music, and cross‑device URL/Handoff features). Overall, strong desktop support with notable cross‑platform reliability concerns and feature gaps.

Pros

Resumes video playback from the last watched position, addressing a gap YouTube lacks.
Works well on Desktop Firefox and is convenient to use.
Described by users as useful, valuable and a must‑have for avoiding lost progress.
Does what it promises and helps prevent progress loss when a window closes.

Cons

Android support is inconsistent across versions (some report it doesn’t work on Android, others say it does).
Reliability can regress or be unreliable after updates; not consistently stable.
Sometimes only works in certain cases rather than reliably in all scenarios.
Users want more settings and controls (minimum video length, ignore YouTube Music, URL/Handoff syncing).

Is Video Resumer Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Video Resumer requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Video Resumer has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
