YouTube Playlist Analyzer

YouTube Playlist Analyzer enhances your YouTube experience by automatically displaying the total duration and video count of any playlist you visit. No more manually checking each video or guessing the total runtime — the extension adds clear, accurate information directly within the YouTube interface.

This extension is lightweight, privacy-focused, and designed to blend seamlessly with YouTube’s layout. It runs quietly in the background, activates only on playlist pages, and never collects or stores personal data.

How it works

When you open a YouTube playlist, the extension:

No data leaves your browser except the playlist ID, and no identifying information is collected or stored.

Why this extension exists

Long playlists can be hard to evaluate. Whether you're studying from tutorials, planning watch-time, or managing content, knowing the total duration upfront saves time and effort. YouTube doesn’t provide this by default — so this extension fills that gap cleanly.
