Features & Capabilities

Invidious Redirect is a Chrome extension that seamlessly redirects all YouTube requests to your preferred alternative frontend powered by Invidious, defaulting to the popular invidio.us instance. Users can easily configure which Invidious instance to use for regular browsing and embeddable video content directly from the settings page. This flexibility provides a privacy-focused approach to consuming YouTube content without relying on the standard Google platform.

Derived and improved from previous versions, this extension also fixes the "Watch on YouTube" button behavior, allowing it to open videos directly on YouTube without redirection loops. Additionally, it supports Firefox on Android, enhancing cross-browser usability. Whether you seek privacy, performance, or simply an alternative viewing experience, Invidious Redirect offers an elegant and user-friendly solution.

Is Invidious Redirect Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Invidious Redirect requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Invidious Redirect has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
