TubePilot - YouTube Focus Tools de POLPROG

TubePilot is a lightweight YouTube companion designed to improve focus, playback control, and everyday usability without making the interface more complicated.
Reduce recommendations, comments, overlays, Shorts loops, end screens, and autoplay while keeping practical controls close at hand.

⚡ PLAYBACK CONTROL

• Set a default playback speed from 0.25× to 3×
• Remember speed across videos or reset it for each video
• Loop videos automatically, block autoplay, and pause playback when switching tabs

🎯 FOCUS MODE

• Hide recommendations, comments, sidebars, end screens, cards, live chat, and other distractions
• Expand the video player to use the available page width
• Enable focus hours on a schedule or toggle the mode with a keyboard shortcut

🧹 DECLUTTER YOUTUBE

• Hide or minimize end screens, info cards, related videos, banners, overlays, comments, and chat
• Remove Shorts thumbnails from the home feed, sidebar, or all supported locations
• Hide subscribe overlays, join buttons, and the autoplay switch

🎬 SHORTS CONTROLS

• Move automatically to the next Short instead of replaying the same clip
• Open Shorts in the classic YouTube player
• Pause Shorts when scrolling away from them

🎨 APPEARANCE AND VIDEO FILTERS

• Choose from multiple dark variants, including OLED and high contrast
• Add a cinematic ambient glow around the player
• Adjust brightness, contrast, saturation, hue, sepia, blur, and custom interface colors

👎 OPTIONAL DISLIKE COUNTS

• Restore estimated dislike counts for regular videos and Shorts
• Use the public Return YouTube Dislike API only when this feature is enabled
• Display the result in a style that matches the native YouTube interface

📌 PRACTICAL EVERYDAY CONTROLS

• Use a lightweight popup with clear settings and labels
• Pin a draggable overlay on YouTube while browsing
• Keep features working across YouTube SPA navigation without reloading the page

🧠 WATCH WITH FEWER DISTRACTIONS

Use YouTube for videos, music, lectures, courses, and research without being pulled into endless feeds or repeated Shorts loops.

The extension focuses on high-impact controls that improve attention, playback, and interface clarity.

🔒 PRIVACY FIRST

The extension does not collect personal data, track browsing behavior, run analytics or profiling, or sell or share data.

Settings are stored locally in the browser. When optional dislike visibility is enabled, public dislike statistics are requested from the Return YouTube Dislike API only for that feature.
