Based on the name, the extension is intended for downloading music from the VKontakte social network, but in reality this is far from the case. The extension has quite a lot of functionality, where everyone will find something useful for themselves. The main features of the extension are downloading music and videos from VK. The only thing that is not clear is why the authors added a calendar with a clock to the left column. To get to the settings page, you need to go to the “My Settings” section and select the “MusicSig” tab

VK is full of various groups where you can read interesting information or watch pictures and videos, as well as listen to music. Sometimes you want to download a song you like to your computer and the question arises: “How to do this?”

Extensions for downloading music from VK

Nowadays, many different browser add-ons have been developed that make it possible to perform this function. They are all practically the same, that is, the function is the same, but different developers. However, some of them have broader functionality. Let's look at all the popular add-ons for downloading music from the VKontakte website.

This plugin is the most popular. It has various functions, including downloading music and videos from VK. You can find and install it on the official website.

9. VK Comment Blocker. Save time and psyche from shit in the comments


You scroll, scroll, scroll through your feed... And then bang! Vasya writes in a comment to the post that Android is better than iOS, and Kolya agrees with him. How can you pass by? And again half an hour disappeared... If this problem is familiar to you, then it is better to hide the display of comments in the feed.

10. Orbitum Themes. Changing the page design

This extension contains thousands of luxurious page design options. Surely you will find among them something that resonates with your soul more than the standard design.

The add-ons above are just a small part of what the Chrome Store offers for VK users. There are many offers and what not among them! There is even an addon that displays a “Nichoshi!” picture after each like.

The things listed in the article have many analogues, and some extensions can even do several things at once (for example, VkOpt).

The Chrome browser web store contains a huge number of extensions that complement the functionality of the browser. These include online translators, games, todo lists, and even fb2 readers. TJournal has collected the best extensions that add functionality to the VKontakte social network.

The VK Spoilers extension by former VKontakte developer Denis Olshin allows you to hide from your news feed posts containing “spoilers” - certain words and phrases. After installing the extension, an icon is added to the address bar, which, when clicked, opens a customizable list of rules. In the “templates”, variants of words are entered, separated by commas, entries containing which will be simply hidden or deleted completely, at the user’s choice. You can also display, hide or delete comments on an already hidden post.

Two additional features of this extension are the ability to write templates using regular expressions and a “special” rule that allows you to hide any reposts from the feed, leaving only user content.

Another extension from Denis is VK Webcam. It adds a “Snapshot” item to the drop-down list for attaching media objects that appears when creating a post on a wall or in dialogues. Using this line, you can conveniently take and send photos from your webcam. Among the options is the ability to take a photo instantly or with a delay of 3 seconds.


Olshin also wrote an extension that shows a large and comprehensively informative tooltip instead of the usual one with a meager set of information about the user. VK Notes also has the function of adding your own “notes”. You can mark that such and such a user, for example, is not a good person and a troll, and never fall for his provocations again.


Once installed, the VK.Suggests extension notifies community administrators about the appearance of new “suggested news” via Chrome notifications. Everything is simple here - the user installs the add-on and specifies the communities that the extension will “monitor”. But, unfortunately, you cannot select more than five communities.


VK Spy is a “spy” extension from Ivan Gusev and Evgeny Zinoviev, Happy Santa LLC. This extension, according to the authors, “invisibly monitors the activity of your friends and other VKontakte users.” The application can find out who wrote a message to the user and when, but was too embarrassed to send it.

In the settings you can enable Chrome notifications and exclude conference analysis. Among the nice additions are the ability to see what time a certain user was online, and the ability of the extension to work in the background. The unpleasant thing is that it may not “track” the user who wrote to you if the message was typed in a box on the page, and not in dialogues.


In the description of the VK Spy extension in the Chrome online store, the developers wrote that it was developed in protest of the accepted norm about the sinfulness of curiosity and that “it is a sin to want an answer.” And in the description of their own extension VK Crazy Typing, they already write that they decided to switch to other sins and “turn their attention to vanity and anger.”

We have long noticed that people are extremely annoyed by a bug in the VK application for iPad, when a person constantly looks like he is writing something into the dialogue, but in fact he does not. Well. Meet VK Crazy Typing! The app pretends non-stop that you are writing in hundreds of your conversations. You write and write and don’t send anything. Congratulations to your friends for ending up in HELL without an answer. Why are we so angry? Because we can. Happy Santa LLC.

The extension is also good because it does not require a running browser to work.


The EmojiPlus extension is sleek and simple. It adds a convenient button, like in dialogs, that allows you to put emoji smiles in all text fields of the site.


From the name of the extension “Publish on VKontakte” you can easily guess what its purpose is. But the extension, in addition to publishing the site you are viewing when you click on a button in the context menu, has a useful bonus: it allows you to see the number of publications of this page on VKontakte in the browser extensions panel without distraction.


Denis Olshin, as an active creator of extensions for VKontakte, told TJournal about his hobby:

I like the feeling of doing something useful - both to myself and to other people. I only spent one or two evenings, but the result was some cool stuff that would be of interest to many. In general, you can say so - I make the world a little better.

Receiving gratitude and earning a good reputation is also nice, what’s there to hide? Well, and finally, it also helps me “keep in shape”: practice development skills, discover some new details in this. Denis Olshin, developer

We asked Denis if any problems arise during the development and support process, for example, due to the appearance of new functions on the site.

They do occur, but not very often. From the very beginning, I try to write extensions in such a way that they can be affected as little as possible by further updates (unless VK developers start deliberately harming extensions, of course). When breakdowns happen, as soon as I get around to it, I roll out new versions.

For example, the VK Silent Typing extension, which allows you to view messages without marking them as read, had to be slightly modified - but what’s worse is that it is now visually more difficult to understand that new messages remained unread for the interlocutor (previously they were highlighted, but now there is a strip above them all the time "New messages"). This is confusing: users think that the extension is broken, although it works fine. Denis Olshin, developer

Original:

I decided to make a selection of extensions for Google Chrome that will help the user quickly download music, videos, receive notifications about received messages, chat with friends, and get offline access to some data (contacts, messages). There are 26 extensions in total and I wouldn’t use all of them. Remember safety first. It is best to use extensions that have a green checkmark. This means that this extension has been tested and approved. But you shouldn’t really trust this :) Also, do not forget that VKontakte does not allow you to download music and videos. This is made possible by various add-ons, programs, plugins, extensions and additions. Most hacking of VKontakte accounts occurs precisely because users entrust their data (login and password) to various programs that allow them to download video and audio materials on the site.

Never enter your social network username and password anywhere. Conscientious and decent programs, add-ons, extensions must interact with social network data through the API. If this is not the case, then you yourself increase the possibility of theft of your personal data.
