Description from store

Basically, copies the like/dislike shortcut from YouTube Music, which means:
• Shift+Plus (on the number row) to like a video
• Shift+Minus (on the number row) to dislike
• Numpad Plus to like
• Numpad Minus to dislike

Additionally:
• Pressing the like/dislike shortcut will only rate the video once, i.e., pressing again won't un-rate it
• To un-rate, use Shift+0 (on the number row)
• Auto-like videos based on a watch time threshold OR based on whether you're subscribed to the current channel
• You can customize the shortcuts and the auto-like threshold

** The extension does not reveal the videos' dislike counters **

Felipe Henrique 2025-03-02: Good very practical ^^
Pseudonym 2024-11-21: simple and effective
Jeremiah King. 2024-09-29: Easy and works great!
Suraj M Durgad 2024-09-29: Just works, amazing to be honest. One note, make sure you restart chrome after installing the extension, I almost uninstalled the extension because it was not working for me before restarting.
Andres Canales 2024-09-21: so beautiful i want to cry
Pongsatond Trechinapong 2024-05-23: It just works
Magician 2024-05-21: Now the Auto-like is executed when CM video is played.
Franck 2024-04-08: Simple but works well. Something basic I definitely needed: annoying when you are in fullscreen to have to exit fullscreen to give a like and then go back to fullscreen again.
Kitsune W 2024-03-02: Good！
Güneş Naz Çelik 2023-12-30: Absolutely astonishing!! works perfectly and it even provides you with nice options to when or in which situations to like or dislike :)
al justiet 2023-12-20: Great shortcut. It works. Thank you very much
Roberto Vera 2023-12-15: It's a great app, very helpful, the only thing is that it doesn't work in a playlist.
Maxwell Wilson 2023-12-14: Working perfectly again ! Thank you so much for this fantastic extension !
Simon Manning 2023-12-01: Was working *amazingly*... until very recently (***** Five stars!). First one feature - the per cent based auto-like - stopped functioning, with a Chrome or YouTube update (I assume); and then a fortnight later (probably after another update from the evil 'G'), the auto-like for subscribed videos ceased to work, rendering the add-on useless to me. I hope the extension is itself updated soon to overcome this, as I have now gotten into the habit of NOT up-voting my watched videos, which is one of the ways I use to check if I have already watched a video...
Angel Real 2023-11-28: Been loving this extension forever I forgot it wasn't already apart of YouTube. Unfortunately, it's stopped working recently. I've tried reinstalling multiple times from different sources. I'm using Edge (which the Edge Store version is older)
Mayle Spric Lem 2023-10-16: OMG, thank you for that. An obvious thing for us to already have within youtube, fixed by an user's mod. Thanks alot. \o/

Gürkan Işık 2023-10-07: This extension saved my life. It was being very though like the video with mouse every time. God bless your hands, man!

Christopher Ng 2023-06-03: Its been years that no one left a newer and recent review now. I found a bug that when I'm playing shorts and press the + at my number pad, that I configured it there, the like does not update graphically. The video also is not liked. I have to move my mouse and press the like button. This makes liking and disliking easier and convenient, removing the need to click with a mouse. However the bug still remains and I hope its fixed.

Abin Liu 2023-04-03: 十分感谢，这正是我需要的 Thx, this is exactly what I needed.
Alessandro Chieffi 2023-02-07: La utilizzo da più di un anno e funziona perfettamente! Complimenti agli sviluppatori
Andrew Zibrovski 2023-01-12: Awesome. So much easier to put Likes using a button on the Numpad instead of dragging a mouse.

Merculian 2023-01-07: спасибо, удобно ставится лайк, когда просмотрел определенный процент от увиденного. еще нужно убрать возможность видеть этот процент
Rich Johnson 2022-12-01: Changed my configs to shift+L for like and shift+D for dislike. No need for the stinky pinky on my 60%. Only thing that doesn't work, unless I don't understand it, at the time of this review is the "Un-rate" shortcut. It shoes a thumbs up or down in the middle of the screen, but it doesn't unlike undislike which is what I would expect it to do.

Hoschen 2022-11-01: This works with the new Youtube design (October 2022). Please check, if you can make more buttons work. I had been using a different program for this and my like button was always ENTER. Would be nice.

Bryan Chow 2022-10-06: Worked well until the latest YouTube UI update broke it. Hope it will be fixed soon.

Roberto Vera 2022-09-27: It is a great extension. My only question is if still unrate a video that is alread liked when the Auto-like is activated?
dilfbaG 2022-09-24: Normally I don't write reviews for stuff unless it works very well. I used something similar in the past that stopped working. This one is even better because you can choose the combination of buttons that likes or dislikes the video. Great extension, straight to the point.

Eric Jensen 2022-05-01: I really love the idea of having a keybind to like and dislike videos but I was hoping to be able to use it like the next and previous track buttons, on a tab in the background so I didn't need to focus my window of youtube music in order to rate songs. would bump it up to 6 stars if it was added, but what can you do lol. I couldn't find out how to change the buttons used to like and dislike videos either, which is half way sad but it really isn't a big deal either

James Stokes 2022-04-17: Wow, this extension is awesome! An instant 5 star review!! The only issue I had was the keyboard shortcut not working at first on a video I had loaded before installing. I fixed the issue by refreshing the YT tab and then all the shortcuts worked perfectly. Thanks for the awesome extension, now I can rate videos without needing to use the mouse to do so!
