Youtube Times Firefox

Youtube Times

Replaces the undescriptive youtube time on recommended with the exact absolute time of release.

Features & Capabilities

YouTube Times enhances your YouTube experience by replacing vague timestamps like "1 month ago" with the exact absolute time of video release displayed in your locale's time format, such as "6/14/2024, 11:00:17 AM" for United States users. This extension helps you know exactly when videos were published, improving video discovery and context.

The source code is open and available on GitHub, ensuring transparency and community trust. Please note that other YouTube-related extensions may interfere with YouTube Times' functionality.

Doesn't work.
by Ja*****, 2026-05-12

Seems to work well. Is there any way I can change this to YYYY-MM-DD-HH:MM:SS (24-hour/army time without "AM" or "PM") format? Right now it seems I can only show either MM/DD/YYYY (US) or DD/MM/YYYY (GB) which is unfortunately ambiguous. And it also shows "AM" or "PM" which I don't like.

EDIT: On further usage this breaks YouTube at random times, blanking subscription feed, loading "playlist deleted" pages, etc. Re-rated accordingly, think I'll hope for a future fix before committing. 1. Works in video description and channel menus; 2. does not work for playlists or subscription feeds; 3. buggy on search results, sometimes loads sometimes doesn't.

Is Youtube Times Safe?

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.

Youtube Times requires a few sensitive permissions. 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.

Youtube Times is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
