User Reviews

Users find Video Speed Up highly useful and reliable for speeding up videos, with mobile support and easy use. However, several reviews report occasional non-functionality, limited increment steps and no per-site memory, and UI/UX issues like non-integrated YouTube controls and missing hotkeys; overall positive but with notable areas for improvement.

Pros

Extremely useful and frequently relied upon to speed up videos.
Works on mobile as well as desktop.
Simple, user-friendly interface that is easy to use.
Generally positive reception with users recommending it to others.

Cons

Occasional non-functionality or 'doesn’t work' issues reported by some users.
Limited features: only 0.25x increment steps and no per-site speed memory.
UI/UX could be improved: controls could be more intuitive (e.g., +/- buttons) and not well integrated with native YouTube controls.
Users express a desire for hotkeys and other convenience improvements that are not currently available.

Is Video Speed Up 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 Speed Up requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
