### 1/5 — 2026 Does Not Work

*2026-04-09*

Downloaded. This app is not functional. I should’ve checked the reviews first. It appears that it did work at one point, but now it does not.

### 1/5 — Does not work with YouTube in AUM.

*2026-03-17*

Does not work with YouTube in AUM.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2026-03-02*

Great Idea poorly implemented. App never plays videos from YT. Doesn’t work in Logic AUM loopy pro or cubase. 5 start if it actually work. Will refund until fix. I’ll check back in a few month maybe.

### 1/5 — うまく動作しない。

*2026-01-13*

apiの問題なのか、サイトに拒否られます。音楽をかけることは出来ません。

### 2/5 — Does not work with many sites

*2025-11-22*

I managed to get a radio player site to work in this, but got playback errors in YouTube and in Rumble I’m unable to save the cookie preferences needed to get anything to play. The built-in web browser operates in mobile mode only and seemingly has some limitations compared to the full-blown Safari,

### 1/5 — Total Garbage

*2024-11-22*

Have not found a single site that will play video or audio through this plugin.

### 2/5 — Not having good luck

*2024-06-07*

With this app. 
Sometimes I get a good audio feed inside AUM where I have some looperator or Tornado set up to destroy, tweak, and loop slice arrange for conservative talking points - otherwise I can’t understand what the f they are saying. 
The only way to make them make sense is to rearrange and slice backwards to reproject their lies back onto themselves.  But I have had bad luck recently with get YouTube to play anyone in this app, especially FAUX News. 
Help for 5 stars.

### 4/5 — Does the job nicely

*2023-04-01*

I bought this so that I could adjust the volume of YouTube videos relative to other audio plugins and in this capacity it works pretty well.
It ‘plays nicely’ with AUM.

It is a shame that you can’t see the video playback however but this is not a deal breaker and is still good value for money. Is this possible in future (if so I would be prepared for a paid upgrade)?

I have found that some longer you tube videos e.g. more than one hour, do not seem to ever start but just get stuck ‘buffering’.

### 5/5 — What I was looking for!

*2023-02-05*

Thanks for this well thought out app! Must have!

### 3/5 — Very useful plugin but lacks play back control features.

*2023-02-05*

This is a very useful plugin, but I am missing playback control features. Specially because the plugin has its own playback controls, it should not be difficult to allow control via MIDI or starting and stopping together with the host transport.
