- Rated 3 out of 5by Slinx, 2 years agoIt's the best chrome like download bar, buuut:
it's light mode only
the text is light grey on white so it's really hard to read
you can't drag files from it
it covers the page you're on instead of pushing the border up
it gives an annoying popup in the lower right when a download finishes
I think i'll keep it, but damn this this is so close to perfect, please update it. also please make a github as idk if you'll ever see this - Rated 5 out of 5by Wissou, 3 years ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Lane C, 5 years agoThe privacy policy states they will use advertising to monetize the plugin. If you don't pay for something then you are the product. No different with this.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13252485, 6 years agoDownload bar Has No Functionality like chrome does, all it does is give you information about what ever it is your downloading. Clicking on it does nothing, it doesn't even shortcut to the location of the download or open the download. Useless.
- Rated 4 out of 5by mtzfox, 6 years agoI do really like this extension, and it mostly does what I expect. But two things would be really nice:
- The ability to dismiss all downloads. I can clear the downloads bar, but each time I download something again, it still shows ALL my old downloads. It would be really helpful if I was able to clear existing ones and then only see the new ones.
- Some sort of darker theme. My browser is mostly dark and the download manager sticks out like a sore thumb. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14632383, 6 years ago

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14564543, 6 years agoI've been using this for about one minute and while I like the effort, I've noticed several problems:
- Not on github. If it was on github I would leave my comments or pull requests there instead of writing a negative review. This is free software and I can easily access the source code on my machine, so it makes no sense not to put it on github.
- Bar does not hide once you open the only file
- Downloads from previous sessions continue to appear on the bar
- "show all" opens a blank page that just says "Downloads". It should just open the normal downloads window.
- Covers the page you're viewing instead of pushing the border up.
I'm giving this two stars because it's a nice effort, but these problems make it less useful than Mozilla's implementation (despite me strongly preferring Chrome's behavior over Firefox). I'll gladly amend my review if these things are fixed. Let me know if you need help with development. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14534666, 6 years ago

- Rated 2 out of 5by Blrp, 7 years agoI just wanted the bar; the popups when a download is finished are really annoying, and I can't find a way to disable them.
