- Just what I needed: I hate watching those short videos, but sometimes I can't help myself when I'm tired.
- Matt “LazerWulf” Stoumbaugh
- I've been catching myself doomscrolling until 2 in the morning. I've been trying to find an app that will detect when I'm on a certain page (i.e. YouTube Shorts) for a certain amount of time and either warn me or force close the tab, but until then, a way to disable the Shorts from even appearing is probably the best I can do. I do like how it can auto-redirect a shorts link to a normal video, because I do have friends who make shorts that I still want to support.

- W extension

- Must have for everyone that spends any time on shorts that they wish they'd have spent on something else
- Youtub
- its works great

- Best Extension to get out of distractions.
- Luis Fernando
- Works wonderfully, keep the good work!
- Oleksandr Pylypchak
- Hi, good functionality and settings. Can it somehow rearrange the page to avoid placeholders and black spaces? Upd 28.02.2024 Placeholders (empty spaces) back again. Please fix.
- Tiger Cao
- Great. The animations are great, works perfectly.
- Tanks in Space
- It works great on pc, lots of settings and it's free :-) Got mine set up to remove shorts and those useless premiere announcements from my subscription feed but still have the shorts visible on the channel's page. Thanks
- Ameya Kolhatkar
- Works perfectly! Thanks a lot!

- Steve L
- Does NOT work. Everything is enabled and the stupid shorts still appear.
- S P
- Been using this for a year now. Still working great! I just wish it would also hide finished livestreams, but this extension already does plenty enough 👍
- TXx DEV
- i wasa happy but also make it for youtube mobile app
- Natalie Aurora
- It WAS great at first, I even paid for the added features that kept being added. Then it stopped letting me change me settings, everything setting was stuck on and even changing which settings tab I was on would reset all settings. And then one day I did a routine cleaning of my cookies and it bricked everything. Does not work at all, in the slightest.. Tried everything I could think of, even removed and re-added it, nothing. If it starts working again I'll change this review, but as of now just doesn't function.
- Daan
- Why do you want all my data on all my websites? Stick to youtube.com please
- Timo Benkhard
- No more stupid tiktok style videos on youtube!
- Sadettin Turgut
- plase Please make a mobile version of this please
- Uhl
- Works as advertised and is much needed. I pay for YouTube Premium to hide ads and this extension hides all shorts, making YouTube a much less distracting place. If only there were an equivalent for the YouTube mobile app!?
- Muaz Osman
- amazing
- Faux Cuss
- 5 stars so far, does exactly what it says.
- Doctor Doom
- Only works for the homepage. Doesn't work on the search page, so you will still see shorts whenever you search for a specific keyword
- Gerry Blue
- Works like a charm, I use youtube while I work so spend a lot of time in there, I pay the Premium, I should have the option to disable stupid TikTube videos, with this extension now I can
- RoseBlackBones
- Seems the pay walls have been removed yay, very helpful plugin. hate how cluttered my sub box was with all the pointless shorts, this plugin is perfect.
- Alexandra Mejia
- Definitely works as intended, but with YouTube doing the whole "3 chances to remove your ad blocker or you can't watch anything", its not worth keeping the extension added. Hopefully an update can come out where YT can't recognize I have it on so I can re-add this extension
- Peter J
- Works as I'd hoped it would! Thanks
- Omer Gazit
- Working really good!
- Jan Zaharov
- It's not work .
- Björn Felten
- Doesn't work for me. Sorry...
- Babse Manden
- Thank you so much! Works like a charm. You saved my life!
- slim Shady
- Its shocking how it isnt a feature by default on youtube. Being addicted to shorts/tiktok/reels etc can be seriously damaging to your health
- Hiteshwar Andugulapati
- awesome app looking forward to see this kind of app in mobile devices too
- Idi B

- simon gilmour

- Tony “Fan4eG” W.
- dont work. upd: works fine now. upd 2: paywall has gone. its awesome.
- Dipper
- Why does this extension has "host_permissions" as "all_urls" when this is only for YouTube?
- Jared Chapman
- It is working great. I am not sure where the paywall is being seen.
- Huang Guan

- Kayou Cat
- really usefull for blocking shorts
- Khaled
- Thanks, working perfectly.
- Jarek Hartman
- Quite cool one. But you can do exactly the same with any AdBlocker - just select the Shorts frame.
- Mary Paddock
- IT worked really well until about three or four days ago. Nothing's changed on my end.
- Omer and Anat Gazit
- Working amazingly good!
- Deepanshu Rao
- works well
- Aqua Vlogs!
- This extension works pretty well for me, so I see no problems.
- Scuffed Badger
- The fact that the standard, useful features where put behind a paywall makes this extension not worth having.
- Kate
- eta: Features which were standard (removing shorts from search) now only a premium feature, making this a functionally useless extension for me. Uninstalled. Actually removed them, not just changing them to reg videos. Even removed them from search results, which is where they have been driving me crazy. Creators I blocked using another extension started appearing again under shorts.
