Description from store
Youtube is a learning and productivity tool. It's drastic to block Youtube just because it's easy to get distracted and watch unproductive videos while you are using it to learn something for work or school. Block unproductive video searches instead
Example, you are watching a tutorial on Youtube, and before you have even finished watching the video, you might be searching Youtube for funny cat videos instinctively! This extension will block that unproductive search and will only allow searches that contain the words or phrases you allowed.
Stay focused & improve productivity. Easily block any distracting and unproductive videos. Stop procrastination once and for all!

2.0.0 NEW: Selecting the allowed word/phrase from the pop-up will search the word/phrase in new tab

1.0.3 FIX: Unblocked Search functionality was not working. This is fixed now
1.0.2: FIX: Some parts of the pages were not loading. This is fixed now
1.0.1 HOTFIX: document.body is null sometimes, error: *TypeError: Cannot read property 'style' of null*, this causes multiple page reloading and the extension not to work. This hotfix fixes that problem
1.0.0
NEW: No more momentary glimpse of the videos when the the page is loading. Will only show the page when everything is already set up
NEW: Search works on English Language only, now it works on other languages too (e.g., Chinese)
0.13.3 NEW: Adapt the operating system's dark/light mode settings to strict mode's passphrase. No YouTube-level detection of dark/light mode yet
0.13.2 FIX: Clicking comment's REPLY button reloads the page. Clicking REPLY button no longer reloads the page

* "spider-man" search should not match the "spider" in the storage
* "c#" search should not match the "c" in the storage
* "asp.net" search should not matches the "asp" in the storage

0.11.2 FIX: When in unblocked mode, clicking any part of the popup window with Block Search button, blocks the search. Blocking should only happen when user click the Block Search button, not the area surrounding it. Made a fix, blocking happens when user clicks the button only
