Description from store

This extension allows you to access Youtube for TV App, also known as Youtube Leanback.

This version of Youtube is very useful because it allows remote control via a tablet or smartphone running the YouTube app.

On OCT/02/2019, access began to be restricted on several non-whitelisted devices, including Desktops and Macs. Two days later I found the solution that resulted in this extension.

You just need to install it and access https://www.youtube.com/tv

Matthew Parsons 2021-01-11: It has adware built into it navigate to your app data folder C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions\gmmbpchnelmlmndfnckechknbohhjpge\0.0.5_0 then after you get there delete all the .JS files to stop the pop ups the only reason i would recommend using this app is if you want to control your videos from your phone like you used to be able too untill google made it a paid feature
Someone Someone 2021-01-02: Does what it says, but randomly opens pop-ups. Please don't install because it probably has spyware too. And a great alternative is to change your User-Agent to "SMART-TV; Tizen 4.0" in the Dev Tools.
Jozef Krkoška 2020-12-25: ADWARE
Paulius Pakalniškis 2020-12-24: Hidden adware, should be uninstalled.
Andrey Awsarkisoff 2020-12-13: Всё работает !
Robert Chalmers 2020-11-21: Product does what it says on the tin. However it will also hijack your browser to open ads. Avoid like the plague it is.
Mr Snow 2020-10-18: This app does work but it is filled with adware DO NOT INSTALL. I cleared my chrome last time and didn't expect this app to be the adware. I reinstalled it recently and pop ups have began again!
Kush Mittal 2020-10-11: Garbage and trash extension has a million ads plus viruses plus website logger. TRASH! You all should install my extension https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/tv-version-for-youtube/pcpmibjdhlegmhbmgpaijjjgfbepbbll?hl My extension has no ads or anything.

Skyris Bactera 2020-10-07: Adware
Cory Ramsey 2020-10-02: This now contains adware. Do not install this. It is time for GoGoAway to live up to it's namesake.
