Video Controls for TikTok is a Chrome extension designed to enhance your TikTok video viewing experience by adding intuitive player controls. This extension introduces keyboard shortcuts that allow you to play or pause videos, jump forward or backward by 5 seconds, adjust volume levels, and change playback speed from 0.25x to 2x. Additionally, it offers a pop-out video feature for viewing videos in separate windows, auto-remembers your last volume setting, and can auto-advance to the next video in a collection.

This tool also simplifies downloading TikTok videos directly from the player interface. Although it was last updated in February 2024 and is not actively maintained as of January 2025, it remains a valuable utility for TikTok users seeking better video control and playback customization.
