YouTube Auto HD + FPS

By: Avi
Automatically set the videos' quality on YouTube according to their FPS!

Features & Capabilities

YouTube Auto HD + FPS lets you tailor how videos are streamed on YouTube, YouTube Music, and Shorts based on their frame rate. Choose quality levels from 144p up to 8K, and let the extension match your FPS so a 30fps video can play at 4K while a 60fps video plays at 1080p for a smoother viewing experience.

The extension also supports automatic enhanced bitrate, opt-out of super resolution, and setting quality for embedded videos. An auto-resize feature adjusts the player size automatically for a consistent viewing experience across pages.

User Reviews

Across multiple reviews, users praise the addon for reliably delivering its intended video-quality control and often outperforming similar extensions, making it feel essential. However, several reviews flag intrusive promos and upsell prompts, along with occasional automatic quality changes and a dark, hard-to-read settings UI. Overall, it’s valued for functionality but criticized for promotional behavior and some UX quirks, with some compatibility concerns noted around YouTube UI updates.
Pros
  • Reliable functionality: the extension consistently delivers the requested YouTube video quality control and works as advertised.
  • Improves viewing experience by giving users control over HD/quality handling, with several reviews noting better results than similar extensions.
  • Positive user sentiment and perceived value, with users saying they can't live without it / it's essential.
Cons
  • Intrusive ads and promotions linked to the extension or other addons, which degrade the YouTube experience (upsell prompts, spam).
  • Unwanted automatic quality changes (e.g., forced 720p or automatic res switching when preferred options aren't available).
  • UI visibility issues in the settings (dark UI that is hard to read).

It really works — this extension is exactly what I was looking for. I was tired of having to choose the quality I needed every time, especially when it automatically lowers it. With this extension, you can set the quality you want and just forget about it.

Is YouTube Auto HD + FPS Safe?

High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
