YouTube™ for TV

Allows https://youtube.com/tv to load YouTube™ TV App from regular browser

YouTube™ for TV - Use YouTube TV App from Browser

The 'YouTube™ for TV' element provides users with access to the YouTube for TV App, also known as YouTube Leanback, from a regular browser. This aids the user by enabling the app’s remote control function through a secondary device running the YouTube app. Even though access has been restricted on certain devices since 2019, this extension combats this issue. However, it’s important to note that there is no direct endorsement or affiliation with YouTube.
