Highlights

  • More reliable downloads — PO-token generation now retries on transient failures, fixing the intermittent "no integrity token" 403 that aborted some downloads.
  • Recent downloads are cached — finished files stay cached for 10 minutes (the timer resets while the popup is open) for instant re-download, and the cache evicts the oldest entries when the disk is tight without ever blocking the real save.
  • Determinate processing — the progress ring climbs through a real percentage during muxing instead of sitting at an indeterminate 70%.
  • Green completed state — grid and playlist download buttons turn green when done, matching the watch page.
  • Unavailable videos — show a disabled error state instead of a dead button.
  • Cleaner and quieter — zero service-worker errors when reloading a YouTube page, FFmpeg log spam no longer floods the extension errors panel, and a Trusted Types (jitless zod) fix stops YouTube's CSP from blocking the extension.
  • Anonymous usage analytics — GA4 Measurement Protocol active-user and uninstall tracking, with no host permissions and no video data ever sent.
