Fullscreen Anything makes anything fill up your browser window at the click of a button!
This enables:
- Fullscreen Images
- Fullscreen Video
- Fullscreen Games
Plus:
- Advertisements are hidden
- Works well with multi-monitor setups
Simply click the Fullscreen Anything button (or press Ctrl+Space) to make anything that's currently on your screen fill the browser window. Press again to undo and continue browsing.
As Fullscreen Anything makes content fill the browser window, rather than the whole screen, you can quickly browse to different tabs while a video continues playing in fullscreen mode. Ideal for multi-tasking!
Most videos and games will continue playing seamlessly when maximized. Special care has been taken to ensure perfect compatibility with major video websites and social networks. Support for Youtube includes playlists, html5 video, and auto-HD on maximize.
* Note to TabCinema users: Fullscreen Anything replaces TabCinema, and is better in every way. Should you miss a feature in this new release, feel free to ask on the Feedback page!

- (2025-05-29) Jaryd Fontana: It was the best app, loved it so much.
- (2025-04-20) Nick A: I was skeptical with a 3.8 but 5 stars for sure. The extension is intentionally breaking websites and making them do things they weren't meant to do, there's going to be bugs. I'm able to easily work through them though and much better than the way I was watching school videos before. Good work!
- (2025-02-20) Hannah L: This would be my top extension if it overrode the screen clicking - currently, when the extension is installed and you're on fullscreen, if you click on the video to pause it (as I usually do with a split screen) it goes into actual full screen mode, instead of pausing/unpausing
- (2025-02-15) helly: it's good, it does the job. in my case, i don't know for everyone or every place, but i have to manually click the extension icon in the browser menu to get out of the fullscreen window'd mode. that's fine, what stops it from getting 5 stars is that the seek bar does not function, again, in my case. it could work just fine on other websites or other video players.
- (2025-01-19) cerrixs: I LOVE THIS SO MUCH
- (2024-11-16) Dipto Sarkar: Just to be in the safe side. Worked 100% Allow this extension to read and change all your data on websites you visit: Choose Specific website I understand why they have this access but imagine having my data access in gmail thats scary
- (2024-10-24) C J: Very useful!
- (2024-08-26) dani dum: Works fine but Google warns This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions. I will request to the author to update the extension as soon as possible.
- (2024-07-03) Carl Paulson: A bit buggy, prob about 75% success rate, but that's 75% more instances that I was able to go full screen when I wouldn't have been able to otherwise . TikTok website is a prime example. Super buggy, bordering on not worth the trouble. An "off-label" (but extremely handy) use in addition to obvious "on-label" uses: even when platforms DO allow full screen video, many of them think it's cool to still serve visitors w/ pop-ups/overlays, etc., completely polluting the screen's real estate (NOT cool with the video in full screen mode! Honor/observe the standards, f**ktards!) However, if you use Fullscreen Anything in such instances, the ONLY thing you'll see aside from the video is the extension's OSD (progress bar) and that's only when you move the mouse to the bottom of the screen and click. Otherwise, ALL pop-ups, annotations, end cards, intermission cards, reminders, etc. may as well not exist as far as we're concerned (I think they're actually still there, just underneath this extension, so, "out of sight, out of mind"). This has come in handy more times than I can effectively express to instantly eradicate all unwanted noise and be left with just the desired video file. So, thanks Dev! Keep up the good work! If you just squash the occasional bug here and there, Fullscreen Anything will ultimately get the recognition it deserves General note to users/reviewers - before you leave a negative rating and review, try disabling all other extensions and see if the problem persists. If it does, let the developer know and give them a chance to squash the bug or at least offer some helpful input. if they don't respond or at least acknowledge your issue after a reasonable amount of time, all bets are off and it's fair game to speak your truth. Just keep in mind that ratings/reviews are a big deal for devs and just a couple of poor reviews can be a death blow to the software/extension/etc. (even a solitary negative review can be a nail in the coffin for new projects or those with little to no preexisting user feedback). In closing, don't drop a 1 star rating/predominantly nasty review without considering whether you've ruled out everything on your end (user error, interference from other apps/extensions/etc., etc.) and confirmed that the rating and review are fair/justified.

- (2024-05-28) I.i: works fine for me watching French Open
- (2024-05-25) Tan Yong Xiang: Nice and workable ! Great job and thanks !
- (2024-04-09) Lucky Cross: Works beautifully for Solarmovie since, as mentioned by Carter below, fullscreen also doesn't work there normally for some reason. If you have installed the addon while you already had a tab with a video open, make sure to do this: 1 Refresh the tab 2 Click on the addon's icon (or press ctrl+space) 3 Press F11

- (2023-10-08) Leeloo Marchese: Absolutely does not do what I expected it to. Ctrl+Space does nothing on most websites. I have to have multiple windows open and to be "full screen" within each of those individual windows. This app does not let you do that. KINDA works for videos (kind of, doesn't seem consistent).

- (2023-08-26) NC Lau (The Mister Lau): Exactly what I want. It works on non-Youtube video sites too so I can have full-window size display of these videos. Thanks.

- (2023-02-27) Аскер Жансуев: A cool extension, but on some sites (for example, sng.sportplus.live) the video increases in width of the browser window, but only the lower half of the picture is displayed in the upper half of the browser window.

- (2023-02-27) Delaney Olson: Works great if and when you can get it to work. Half the time I have to keep hitting the button or reload my game to get it to work. Last time I had to reload the game I play 34 times to make it finely work

- (2022-11-18) Bodach Show: been using it for years, would like an update for the new YouTube "cinematics" background fade thing they added recently, it used to go full screen on click, but now you need to select the video. not a big deal, just lost a big chunk of this add-on's convenience

- (2022-09-07) James Clark: Honestly have no clue what's up with this extension. Around 4 days ago it suddenly just stops working after 6-7 uses until I restart my computer. Worked completely fine prior to that outside of randomly it would randomly fullscreen random images that were on whatever site i used it on for a few days.
