However, multiple users report issues with downloading videos from YouTube, noting inconsistency and recent failures specifically on Firefox, sometimes requiring them to switch to Chrome-based browsers. The add-on icon badge also sometimes disappears. Overall, it is considered a great download manager with some functionality limitations on YouTube.

Better than IDM or FDM, works perfectly with Mozilla (Firefox), and have perfect "Media Grabber" either in the program or in its extension.

Extension safety

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.

XDM Browser Monitor v8+ requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
