## Description

The "Turn Off YouTube Autoplay Next & Annotations" Chrome extension allows users to disable the automatic playback of the next video and hide YouTube annotations for an uninterrupted and distraction-free viewing experience. It works seamlessly across desktop browsers, mobile devices, and embedded YouTube videos. When autoplay is disabled, the toggle option also disappears for simplicity.

For users seeking additional customization, such as removing video recommendations and comments, the developers recommend the "Unhook YouTube" add-on. This extension is available not only on Chrome but also on Microsoft Edge, ensuring broad compatibility. Enhance your YouTube experience by controlling autoplay and annotations with this lightweight tool.
