Features & Capabilities

VideoSnipper is a free and simple video downloader built on the WebExtensions API, designed for seamless video source caching and downloading within Firefox. It allows users to copy the video source URL directly to the clipboard for easy sharing or downloading on other devices. Through the intuitive addon interface, users can quickly download videos using Firefox's default downloader.

Using VideoSnipper is straightforward: visit your favorite video page, optionally play the video, then click the addon button to detect and cache the video source. You'll receive a notification if the source is found, with the link copied and the download task set automatically. The addon also offers configurable options to customize actions like copying, downloading, and alerting.

Recent updates improved functionality by enabling embedded page detection, reducing required permissions, and enhancing user control over notifications and downloads. VideoSnipper is an efficient tool for anyone looking to easily manage and download video content within Firefox.

Is VideoSnipper 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.

VideoSnipper requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. 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.

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