Features & Capabilities

UnTrap is a browser extension that lets you hide YouTube related videos, shorts, comments, suggestions wall, homepage recommendations, trending, and other distractions.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

To work, you need to activate the workability of the :has CSS selector. It is used to find the desired elements on the pages.

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful.

(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste layout.css.has-selector.enabled

(3) Set this parameter to TRUE.

Toggle the options through the popup to customize your own YouTube experience! Available more than 50 options!

NOTE: This extension does NOT work with the YouTube App. It works only in the browser with the YouTube Website.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES:

Password Protection Once you have set the required settings, you may want to prevent changes to these settings or prevent the extension from being disabled, and password protection will help with this.
Schedule Blocking You can select the required time and days on which the YouTube site will not be available for visiting. Instead of the usual YouTube, the site will display a message about unavailability. You can also additionally activate the blocking of the extension itself during these periods.
Options Categories and Search In order not to get lost in a large number of settings, all options are divided by page types and categories (Home Page, Subscriptions Page, Video Page, Navigation Sidebar, etc.). And also you can instantly find the desired option using the search.

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.

UnTrap - Block YouTube Distractions 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.
