Features & Capabilities

The YouTube Repeat Button extension enhances your YouTube viewing by adding a missing repeat button to the HTML5 player. With this tool, you can easily loop a single video with just one click. Once activated, the button turns white to signify it's enabled. When a video finishes, the player pauses briefly for one second before restarting the video, ensuring a smooth repeat experience.

Initially, the extension works best in normal playing mode and suggests switching if used in playlist mode. From version 0.2.1 onwards, it taps into YouTube's native loop feature and preserves the loop state during navigation between videos. For continued use after opening a new player, simply add "&repeat=true" to your YouTube URL. This extension is perfect for those who want seamless repetition of their favorite tracks or videos without manual replays.

User Reviews

The add-on is praised for its simplicity and clean integration with the YouTube player, and it works well when it functions. However, many users report reliability problems: the repeat button often fails to appear or enable, playback may fail to loop, and behavior can break when switching tracks, moving the page to the background, or after restarting Firefox. Several reviews call for updates to accommodate YouTube’s UI changes. Overall, it’s useful but inconsistently functional.

Pros

Simple and easy to use
Integrates well with the video player UI
When it works, it repeats the video reliably
Minimal, straightforward design that does what it's supposed to

Cons

Not reliable; intermittent functionality; may not repeat or enable at all
Button/icon not consistently visible or clickable
Stops working after Firefox restart and needs re-enabling
Does not work when the page is in background / issues with background tab
Compatibility issues with YouTube UI changes requiring updates

Is YouTube Repeat 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 Repeat Button requires a few sensitive permissions. 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.

YouTube Repeat Button is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
