Features & Capabilities

Browse Youtube like normal, but open up all your videos in any Invidious mirror of your choosing. You don't even technically have to use Invidious if you don't want to. Any alternative front end will work. All it does is trim the URL from the 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ' link, replacing the 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=' portion with whatever you put in the addon's preferences. It will add all of the URL back after the equals sign, allowing you to effectively use any front-end. It's primarily for Invidious, though.

Is YoutubeVid2Invidious 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.

YoutubeVid2Invidious 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.

YoutubeVid2Invidious is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
