DeArrow - Titoli e Miniature Migliori su YouTube
Description from store

DeArrow is a browser extension for YouTube for reducing sensationalism, misleading titles and aggressive thumbnails. DeArrow works by formatting all titles, and replacing thumbnails with screenshots at specific timestamps.

No more dealing with clickbait, arrows, or annoying faces.

Users can submit better titles and thumbnails for each video and vote on them.

Stop leaving 1-star reviews every time the extension stops working for a day. This is YOUTUBE'S fault every single time. Fantastic extension. It makes most video titles and thumbnails be representative as to what the video is about instead of clickbaity nonsense that so many creators think is a more appropriate use for these tools. All this is done thanks to an awesome dev helped by an awesome community. This extension along with SponsorBlock, made by the same dev and community makes Youtube just so, so much better. Also it seems that every review for the extension that isn't 5 stars moans ignorantly about how it doesn't work at all. This is always Youtube's fault, breaking compatibility for the extension after pushing an update, which they do incredibly frequently. The dev usually restores the extension's functionality within a day after this happens. He really deserves your support for both this extension and SponsorBlock. They make Youtube so much more usable and user-friendly. Thanks Ajay!

Apparently stopped working today because my videos werent loading, I deactivated the extension and theyre back to normal.
Miroslav Šuvada
Great extension with awesome support from the dev. Bugs are fixed really fast after Google makes changes to YouTube that break the extension. It takes some time for the update to be reviewed and published to the extensions store, which can take couple of days. Not the developer's fault.

Used to work fine but not anymore. The circle button next to the title doesn't show up for normal videos, only shows up for shorts.

Today's update fixed the issue thanks!

"Replace Thumbnails" option doesn't work anymore

THIS NO LONGER WORKS. ABANDONED BY CREATOR. EVERYONE CLICK 1 STARS REVIEW AND GO AND DOWNLOAD Clickbait Remover for Youtube SINCE IT ACTUALLY WORKS UNLIKE THIS. 0 stars

It's been working fine for a while but something broke over the past couple days and now I can't see any thumbnails when it is turned on. I'll change the rating when it's fixed.

recent update broke thumbnails, everything is blinking or black other that than, awesome extension :)
bobby M
was working great until recent update, with thumbnail changer all the thumbnails are black

nice extension, avoid thumbnail clickbait
Marc
This is so cool, thank you!
Arsenij Kryazhev
I admire the idea, but I don't want to support clickbaiting creators at all; this way the app does sort of the opposite of what I'd want from it. I'm seeking to boycott such videos, so I wish the extension could hide videos with arrows/caps-lock titles/emojis completely. I hope this gets implemented someday, should be easy granted that it already can recognize these.

Too bad I wasn't able to prevent DeArrow to change the thumbnail of music videos. I am okay with them being shiny.

I decided to stop watching clickbait, in some case I even unsub from creators using it all the time. Using this + SponsorBlock makes YouTube stress free.

works well, saves time, made me happy enough to support creators with a review.

It's NOT free. You have to pay to get immediate access. Yes, there is an option to wait 12 god damn hours to use it for free, and that is how the developer got around the loophole of labeling this as a free extension. And he keeps coming up with more and more b*llsh*t excuses and answers to every criticism of this blatantly disrespectful and shady business model.

However much time this increases in loading is made up in full by it's purpose. My youtube use is more purposeful than ever. Amazing extension! Every desktop youtube user needs to try this and Untrap.
Orpheus Hitchcock
I really appreciate this extension. DeArrow has made youtube a lot more objective, removing the flashy thumbnails and letting me choose which videos to watch easier. The title changes are my favorite.
Rodolfo
Just realized how little I've been using YouTube since I installed this extension, which was my goal. Before, I would spend my day watching YouTube videos over and over. Now, if I visit the website three times a day, it's a lot. Plus, it made me click on videos and find content I never thought I would click on. In some rare cases, some of the thumbnails this extension generates (which is a frame of the video) are more interesting than the heavily edited original thumbnails.

I love dearrow ( as well as sponsorblock). When dearrow works, it's great, but unfortunately dearrow is just too temperamental. Often showing blank titles and removes the titles entirely without replacement. whereas the Clickbait Remover for Youtube addon has always just worked without issue. I really hope the dev figures out a way to make dearrow more reliable as I love his projects.
Interesting
Along with correcting video titles so they're not clickbait, it has been very useful to tell if I should watch a video or not.

yoooo im in the thumbnail

First glimpse at the extension; Will require some fine-tuning of the setup. But the ability to have it be clear when titles are altered by this; And getting to see the original title with hovering over a button? Great addition for Youtube. Consider giving some time or money to make Youtube less of a time waste for false video titles.

Fantastic extension, YouTube's practically unusable without it.
Vector
Feels like a premium youtube now. Pure content without any trash or clickbait titles.

Love this extension, but it seems that as of yesterday keeping it enabled breaks thumbnails completely when watching a video. Thumbnails on the homepage and embedded into the video work, but ones on the side do not. Disabling the addon in its settings doesn't resolve it, but disabling it completely in Chrome's settings resolves it.

The developer of DeArrow is so sweet! After adding the extension a window popped up asking to pay $1, but none of the payment options worked for me. So the extension gave me free unlimited access. This is not a paid extension, the developer is simply asking for donations and that is perfectly fine! Watching the video the developer made on DeArrow, you can tell this is a kind, sweet individual who's spending his time and effort to give something to all of us for FREE. To those complaining about the $1 payment, you need to chill. Luckily, the developer added a donation option right to the extension menu/popup. This is fantastic because it will allow to donate later when circumstance change. As for the extension itself, it has many features and options that you can tweak in the settings to make it suite you better. I don't understand them all, but hopefully with time I will. There's an option called "Casual Mode", which gives you even more control. I just got this extension so my rating is based on first impression. If I find faults with it, I'll update, but for now, it's perfect. And to the developer I say, "Thank you so much for all your efforts! You are AMAZING!"

Please make this for Firefox

Good idea but too aggressive. I'd use if there was some kind of tier system that makes submitters specify how clickbaity the thumbnail/title they're replacing were, so that way people could choose what level to filter out. Even the examples on the DeArrow website, which I imagine were cherry picked, have some perfectly good titles and thumbnails that got replaced for no reason. I also understand why the thumbnails work they way they do, but it just makes them so much worse. Being able to only filter out the bad clickbait would solve this so we could stop seeing the obnoxious thumbnails without the innocent ones being replaced by generic screenshots.
Arihan Jalan
Unshittifies my timeline for $1 (I gave $5). The devs gotta make money somehow- else; how are they going to host the backend to make this possible? Think, people; THINK!

What people don't understand is that the donation for this extension is for the developer of the SponsorBlock extension that far too many people use and is totally free just because of this extension. Yes, DeArrow does pretty much what other extensions do but it does it better in my opinion, but that's not what's important, it's the support you can give a developer for their work in general, not just for what you bought.

0 stars, this is a paid extension that does the EXACT SAME functionality of a free extension "Clickbait Remover for Youtube" You'd have to be nutty to install and pay for this extension, just go get the free one dudes.
Ndi
One of those extensions that makes the internet bearable again. Worth every penny.
James Marsh
Really disappointed in the fact you are using license keys at all, asking for donations to keep the app alive is fine and I would probably donate same as I do with the adblock I use but I don't agree with your choice of intentionally introducing friction for people who want to use the extension without paying for it. Unfortunately, I won't be using this extension and I'll switch to a different extension with fewer features and without this artificial friction.
Арсен Андріїв
Great job! VERY cool extension!!!
Javakhir Abdunazarov
Awesome! Thank you You saved my time
Preetesh Shetty
Absolutely must have extension. Youtube has become unbearable without this. I need something similar when browsing youtube on my TV and/or phone.
Matt Nichols
okay sure, this does what it says it does—but my god, it slows down youtube like crazy! no other chrome addon hampers my browsing experience quite like this one. slows everything down to a crawl. once i disabled it? bam! the site loads up with ease.
David F
Works really well, a much improved youtube experience. I would like the option to 'picture-in-picture' the original thumbnail in a future update, good for recognising watched videos from mobile youtube app and some videos I want to know content and see text from original thumbnail
Arnav Yash Chandra
Works as advertised

Nothing feels better than being free of all those clickbaity thumbnails lol. For all those reviews saying you need to pay: you don't, but you do need to wait 1 day for lifetime free access. Honestly I paid even after getting free access because it's just. that. good! 5/5
Aiden Vrenna
I demoed this for a few weeks before deciding it was definitely worth a donation. It makes YouTube so much less obnoxious, so much more pleasant. Thank you!
Melvin MacDonald
The extension works perfectly, as advertised. Why would I rate lower than a perfect score.
Josh
Charging money for a chrome extension? never in my life. Don't download, these people will steal your payment info if you actually decide to give it to them. please report this as well don't give scammers like this the opportunity to steal money from people that might not know better.

Finally the cringy thumbnails are removed from YT. Thanks!

So far it seems to be removing those awful YouTube gaping-mouth face thumbnails and arrows, such a cliche they are. So am happy with it. Thanks and rgds.
