Tired of getting lost in endless YouTube recommendations?
YouTube Chips is a lightweight, smart extension that builds upon YouTube’s own category chips system, giving you even more precise control over what you see.
By automatically filtering YouTube’s homepage and recommendations based on your selected categories — even intelligently matching to similar ones when exact matches are missing — this tool helps you stay focused and avoid distractions.
Whether you visit YouTube to learn, work, or relax, the platform often blurs the line between focused intent and mindless browsing.
This extension aims to:
- Reduce unintentional distractions
- Align YouTube recommendations with your goals
- Give you control over when and how content is filtered
- Help you develop awareness of your viewing habits
Available Features:
Enhanced category filtering (built on YouTube chips):
- Lets you choose and store your favorite categories for future sessions. Every time you visit YouTube, your selected category is auto-applied.
- If the exact category isn’t available, the extension intelligently applies the most similar available category using fuzzy matching
Time-based category preferences:
- Set different active categories for specific days and times
- Tailor your experience to match your schedule (e.g., study categories on weekdays, entertainment on weekends or evenings)

- (2025-06-14) Acon: This extension is exactly what I didn’t know I needed. I used to open YouTube “just for a minute,” and end up wasting 30. But with this app, I can set my preferred categories — like Education or Tech — and the homepage automatically filters out all the distracting stuff. It even smartly picks the closest match if the exact category isn’t available. That’s such a nice touch. What really sets it apart is the time-based filtering. On weekdays, I’ve set it to show me study-related content, and on weekends, it switches to entertainment automatically. It’s subtle, but it really helps me stay on track without completely giving up relaxing videos. If you're trying to be more intentional with your time on YouTube, I fr highly recommend this one. Give it a try.
