User Reviews

Users say the add-on was once reliable, easy to use and a handy free YouTube downloader. Recently many report it often fails or the button disappears, pushes third‑party download software (seen as bloatware/scam), limits free downloads to low quality, and has moved toward paid/trial behavior. Several users therefore uninstalled or no longer recommend it.

Pros

Used to be reliable and worked well for downloading (many users say it was 'perfect' or 'really good').
Convenient/easy one-click downloads for YouTube content (several users praised its usefulness).
Free functionality previously available (multiple users noted it was a good free app).

Cons

Now often doesn't work: button or extension functionality not appearing or failing to download (mentioned in several reviews).
Pushes or requires installing third‑party software/bloatware or a trial download manager; users describe this as scammy or malware‑like.
Free downloads are limited to low quality (several users report only ~380p or generally low resolution).
Shift to paid/trial model or imposed fees; users report monetization where it used to be free.

Is YouTube Converter Button 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.

YouTube Converter Button requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

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.
