YouFocus hides distracting content on YouTube with just one click. Whether you're watching YouTube for educational content or just for entertainment purposes, there is no reason to get sucked into videos that you did not originally intend to watch.
70% of all videos watched on YouTube are those recommended to the user, not searched. With YouFocus, you can beat the YouTube algorithm and watch what YOU want to watch, not what YouTube is recommending.
YouFocus has a customizable experience. You can select which elements of YouTube you want to hide and which elements you want to see. The extension also has a schedule feature, allowing you block distractions during select hours.
YouFocus has intuitive, easy to use controls. Additionally, the state of your extension is synced with your google account, allowing you to use the extension on multiple computers at once.
Privacy is very important. YouFocus does not have access to your browsing history. YouFocus is open source! View the code on GitHub: https://github.com/leo3friedman/you-focus

- (2022-09-01) Andrew K Kirk: Want to use Youtube for research or brief entertainment breaks. Unfortunately, the team at Google has developed the product to increase total watch time by hacking our brains to work against us. This extension is the perfect solution to allow me to continue to use Youtube without going down the black hole of related video content.
- (2020-10-19) Sharon Friedman: Finally!! A solution for anyone who gets easily distracted...like me. Now I can watch a video I selected without getting caught up randomly clicking on whatever else pops into view. I love this app!
- (2020-10-13) Daniel Dessert: Probably the most useful extension i've ever had. It saves me so much time in my day to day life as I am not wasting valuable time on my recommended page on YouTube. I've gotten so much more done just because of this simple extension. I didn't think I needed it at first, but then once I got it and it activated, only then I realized how much of a help it was. The best thing about it is that you can turn it off and on. So when I need to get things done during the day, I turn it on, but after school, I turn it off. Amazing!!
