Description from store
Due to some recent YouTube changes the extension does not block the video on YouTube desktop but only hides it. The extension still blocks the video on YouTube Music and mobile YouTube. We are trying to fix it. Stay tuned!
L'unica estenzione Chrome che non solo disabilita il video ma lo blocca anche. La miglior estenzione per ridurre l'uso della CPU e la GPU, salva la larghezza di banda e nascondi contenuti NSFW. Funziona su Youtube, Youtube Music e video YouTube implementati in siti.
FUNZIONI (TUTTE OPZIONALI):
1. Blocca i video mantenendo solo l'audio
2. Nasconde le copertine dei video
3. Nasconde le immagini del canale/avatar utente
4. Nasconde varie altre immagini
5. Disables the "Video paused. Continue watching?" message
6. Salta tutte le pubblicità
Opzioni separate per YouTube, Youtube Musica e video YouTube implementati in altri siti. Puoi attivare/disattivare l'estenzione per tutte le schede o schede specifiche.
Opzioni extra:
1. L'utente può selezionare l'aspetto delle copertine video in YouTube
2. Nasconde le copertine dei video e varie altre immagini nella ricerca Google quando cerchi una canzone o un cantante
3. Tasti di accesso rapido: due tasti extra su YouTube che nascondono le copertine e bloccano i video velocemente senza usare la finestrella popup
Note:
i. Le Dirette video YouTube sono nascoste ma non bloccate
ii. Se hai attivato le funzioni 1, 2, 3, 4 le immagini non sono solo nascoste ma anche bloccate per salvare più larghezza di banda
iii. The message "Video paused. Continue watching?" is disabled only when you block the video

Latest reviews
- (2025-06-28) Mirco Altdorf: Unfortunately, it consumes exactly the same amount of Bandwidth (and with that energy) that it would otherwise if the video was normally playing. The video is playing in the background, it's just an overlay.
- (2025-06-23) Sportytrainguy: Awesome! But unfortunately, youtube will not play my playlist if the ad block mode is on, which is a shame.
- (2025-06-20) abdhul basith: very useful extension 100% recommended

- (2025-06-04) Professor Layton: The extension is great, but having to reconfigure it every time it randomly decides to reset its settings is tiring.
- (2025-05-30) Karan Abraham: Works a charm! Can easily toggle between video and audio.
- (2025-05-18) aditya vats: very useful
- (2025-05-08) Chanul Kulasekara: It's the GOAT. The GOAT
- (2025-04-20) king Arthur: it does not block the video it just use an image to cover the video so its still use a lot bandwidth and battery.
- (2025-04-09) Redwan Shawkat: Definitely something I will go for...The only issue I am getting into is, it is messing with Brave's adblocker configuration for YouTube. Using brave browser for quite some time for its adblocking privileges but this extension couldn't seem to cope up with it.. Fix this and I'll give you 5! Update: It looks like you have fixed it...So I am changing my rating as told! Update: It is having issues again on YouTube... YouTube Music was running from the start though.. Update: I read it now. Its all ok now. It suddenly working fine now. Thanks for your support!
- (2025-03-30) I Want: this is all i needed. Thank you so much
- (2025-03-24) BeatAByte: It works perfectly on Youtube Music as it should! No GPU waste for listening to music <3
- (2025-03-16) Peace Hunter: The best extension I found on internet. If you would like to listen to your favorite music, but don't want to be distracted from different videos on YouTube, this is the extension for you!!! Love and thanks!
- (2025-03-16) Artha: please add a mark on the video that I have already watch. and sorry for the 1 star because i've seen you responding to a low score comments and I will change it later
- (2025-02-22) Wahyu Fadilla Perkasa: The only reason one would want a *music mode* is to save bandwidth by loading only the audio and not the video. This app is not doing that. All this does is stick a JPEG on top of the video and call it a day, one is still downloading the whole video. If that's all that the extension does, the minimize button does a better job at it. Not disclosing that clearly on the page, and still keeping the now-conflicting description on the extension overview, is a dick move.

- (2024-11-11) N Ray: It just replaces the YT display with video wallpaper whence the video keeps playing in the bkg. I was looking to download only the audio channels while blocking the video channels to save bandwidth etc.
- (2024-11-08) Harry Krisna: It's working on Youtube Music, I can see the requests bandwidth decreased. However, in normal Youtube I tried to compare the request bandwidth and found that it's still same as normal video mode. The interface on Youtube is nice btw, keep it up
