Summary

YouFocus hides distracting content on YouTube with just one click. Whether you're watching YouTube for educational content or just for entertainment purposes, there is no reason to get sucked into videos that you did not originally intend to watch.

70% of all videos watched on YouTube are those recommended to the user, not searched. With YouFocus, you can beat the YouTube algorithm and watch what YOU want to watch, not what YouTube is recommending.

YouFocus has a customizable experience. You can select which elements of YouTube you want to hide and which elements you want to see. The extension also has a schedule feature, allowing you block distractions during select hours.

YouFocus has intuitive, easy to use controls. Additionally, the state of your extension is synced with your google account, allowing you to use the extension on multiple computers at once.

Privacy is very important. YouFocus does not have access to your browsing history.

YouFocus creates a more productive YouTube experience by:

  • Hiding Recommended Homepage Videos
  • Hiding Related Sidebar Videos
  • Hiding Endwall Videos
  • Hiding comments

Good, but does not remove the more videos tab that appears in the video player.

Exactly what I needed
by Aman Sharma Aman Sharma, 2024-02-05

Want to use Youtube for research or brief entertainment breaks. Unfortunately, the team at Google has developed the product to increase total watch time by hacking our brains to work against us. This extension is the perfect solution to allow me to continue to use Youtube without going down the black hole of related video content.
