Download Install Compare

YouTube Shorts Redirect is a minimalist Chrome extension designed to automatically redirect YouTube Shorts URLs (youtube.com/shorts/id) to standard YouTube video URLs (youtube.com/watch?v=id). This allows users to watch Shorts videos using YouTube's default video player instead of the Shorts player, enhancing viewing experience.

With less than 20 lines of code, this extension is compact and efficient, avoiding any unnecessary overhead. It works seamlessly when you click Shorts links directly from the YouTube website, ensuring smooth playback without the Shorts interface. The project is open-source and welcomes contributions on GitHub.
