User reviews
AutoTube - YouTube nonstop v2 was widely praised for preventing YouTube's playback interruptions like the "Are you still watching?" prompt and enabling continuous music playback. However, multiple users report that recent YouTube updates have broken the extension, causing tabs to refresh constantly and videos to pause. Lack of updates and missing features like YouTube Music support and shuffle functionality are common complaints. While it worked well for years, recent reliability issues prompt users to seek alternatives or hope for an update.
Pros
- Extension effectively prevented YouTube's "Are you still watching?" pop-up in the past.
- Users appreciated its non-stop music playback feature, especially for listening to music during other work.
- Some users found it stable and functional for years without issues.
- Provides a workaround for YouTube's limited shuffle/autoplay functionalities.
- Easy to use and appreciated by users tired of YouTube's playback interruptions.
Cons
- Currently causes YouTube tabs to refresh repeatedly, disrupting playback.
- No recent updates to keep up with YouTube's changes, leading to breakage.
- Does not support YouTube Music (music.youtube.com) as requested by users.
- Fails to consistently prevent video pauses; "Are you still watching?" message still appears sometimes.
- Mixes and playlists may play in random order or not function properly with the extension active.
