## Description

Save YouTube videos to Watch Later instantly—one click, right where you need it.

Ever find yourself clicking through YouTube menus just to save a video for later? If you watch a lot of YouTube, you know the friction: the "Add to playlist" option always buried a few clicks deep. This extension cuts all that out.

What you get:
- One-click save—just click the button, keep watching
- Instant undo window—changed your mind? You have 10 seconds to undo
- Zero friction—let it quietly do its job while you watch
- Lightweight & fast—no bloat, no performance impact

Why use this?
Forget fumbling through menus or remembering to save later. This button lives right there on every YouTube video, so saving becomes part of your watching flow—not an interruption.

The undo feature gives you breathing room too: save a video, then have 10 seconds to reconsider before it's saved in your Watch Later playlist. After that, you can still remove it in the usual way if needed.

Privacy first
