Video Resumer

Automatically resumes YouTube videos from where you played them last. Without this extension, for example, when you click through YouTube videos, back and forth, they always start from the beginning.

Video Resumer is a handy Chrome extension that ensures your YouTube videos automatically restart from the exact point you last viewed them. Without this extension, videos usually play from the beginning every time you navigate back or switch videos. With Video Resumer, you can seamlessly pick up your videos where you left off, even if you close and reopen your browser. This saves time and provides a smooth, continuous viewing experience for YouTube users.

User reviews

Video Resumer is a convenient and effective Firefox add-on praised for seamlessly continuing videos from where users left off, primarily on Desktop Firefox. However, multiple users report it doesn't function well on Firefox Android, struggles to resume videos after browser restarts, and has issues with YouTube Shorts displaying blank screens. Feature requests include adding options to exclude short videos or certain websites like YouTube Music. Despite some bugs and missing features, it remains valued by users for solving the video resume problem and enhancing long video watching experiences.

  • Works well on Desktop Firefox, including saving progress on many tabs simultaneously.
  • Simple and convenient to use as an add-on that does what it promises.
  • Receives appreciation for being a must-have addon for video watchers.
Cons
  • Does not work properly on Firefox Android version despite availability.
  • Sometimes fails to resume videos after browser reboot or accidental navigation, requiring manual tab close and reopen to work.
  • Has compatibility issues with YouTube Shorts, showing blank or black video windows unless the addon is disabled.
  • Lacks features like ignoring videos below certain length or blacklisting specific sites like YouTube Music to avoid skipping issues.
