Overview
Product summary
Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.
This tiny and efficient extension adds standard video playback controls to Instagram™ videos. Normally, all you can do with an Instagram™ video is play or pause it, but this extension will expose the native HTML 5 video player which has a seek bar (aka video scrubber), a volume control, a play/pause button, Picture-In-Picture (floating video) button, fullscreen video button, and on *some* videos it will also display a download button!
The extension automatically runs and works on all web pages that embed Instagram™ videos!
How to use it:
1) Load any web page that contains an Instagram video
2) Click the video to make it play
3) That's it - the extension will automatically detect the video and will reveal the control buttons.

I like it. As of Feb 2024 the source code doesn't look dodgy and it only asks for permissions it strictly needs. I suggest disabling the volume-remembering option, as for me it caused videos to repeatedly mute themselves when I would click Play. Otherwise it's a godsend for desktop insta users who have been mistreated by Mark F@#$erberg's minions.
Useful, but this extension is killing a chrome keyboard shortcut I use (Command + ▽ / △) to scroll to the end / top of a page ... So i have to change
2 a-holes gave it 1 star because the sound-volume doesn't persist between videos. That's what your device's audio controls are for. That's not what makes this extension useful / greatly needed. The maker (rehfeld.us) could eliminate the volume control, but perhaps some people just watching a single video might want it.
It doesn't save the volume from one video to the next.
The volume doesn't remember the last setting, it'll randomly disable the sound, and randomly, when you HAVE set the volume to, for example, 0.1, it'll just max the volume mid-video
Wow! That's very convenient! And finally I can change the volume of Instagram videos.
Why is this not as default in the original Instagram website??? I love the extension!
Great, but seriously stop turning the volume of when seeking or playing/pausing. How did you design that as default? Sigh.
The most useful extension for instagram PC
Awesome extension. Just one small caveat. The icon is invisible in dark mode. A little white glow around the icon would help.
