YouTube Last Hour, Upload Date, View Count & Rating Filter
Unlock the full power of YouTube search. Restore missing filters, apply multiple filters at once, and find exactly what you are looking for in seconds.
Are you frustrated that YouTube removed useful sorting options? Do you wish you could combine filters like "Last Hour" and "4K" simultaneously? YouTube Advanced Filter restores the classic, comprehensive search experience and upgrades it with modern multi-select capabilities.
Whether you are a researcher, a content creator, or just trying to find the latest viral video, this extension bridges the gap between what YouTube offers and what you actually need.
🚀 KEY FEATURES
✅ Restore "Lost" Filters
YouTube has simplified its search menu, often hiding or removing the most useful sorting options. We bring them back:
Sort by View Count: Instantly find the most popular content for any topic.
Sort by Rating: Filter for high-quality videos loved by the community.
Sort by Upload Date: The true "newest first" sort, essential for breaking news and fresh uploads.
Last Hour Filter: Drill down to content uploaded in the last 60 minutes.
✅ Multi-Select Power
The default YouTube interface restricts you to selecting one filter at a time or clears them when you change categories. Our extension enables Multi-Select Support:
Combine Time (e.g., Today) + Type (e.g., Video) + Features (e.g., 4K, CC) all at once.
Example: Find a "4K" video, uploaded "Today", that is "Creative Commons" licensed.
✅ Smart "One-Click" Deselect
Made a mistake? No need to clear everything.
Simply click the "X" icon next to any active filter to remove just that specific option.
The search results update instantly without resetting your entire workflow.
✅ Bidirectional Sync (URL ↔️ UI)
Never lose your place.
The extension reads the URL to understand what filters are currently active.
If you refresh the page or share the link, the "Advanced Filters" menu will automatically show the correct checkboxes selected.
✅ Native Look & Feel
Designed to feel like it belongs.
Seamless Integration: Adds a simplified entry point directly next to the native "Filters" button.
Dark Mode Support: Automatically detects your YouTube theme (Dark or Light) and adjusts colors to match perfectly using native CSS variables.
Clean UI: Inspired by the "FolderLLM" aesthetic with rounded corners and Google-standard typography.

- Nice work bringing back the menu - hoping you can get the upload date sorted
- David NahImGood
- With all the stupid things YouTube is doing that ruin the whole functionality of the search, it's nice to know someone is working on fixing it. While at present, the search by date function for this extension is not working, YouTube is actively trying to sabotage those who are offering or working on a fix, so you still get 5 stars. I am sure you will have it working as intended in due time, but people need to understand that when the platform is actively working against you, sometimes things might not work for a little while. I applaud your efforts, and truly appreciate the work you are doing.

- upload date doesn't work
- GHISLAIN LETOURNEAU
- Not working as of today. The use of CAI%3D has no effect anymore in the url (any browser, any addon, any script) Still gonna rate this, because of the work you've done.
- Daria N (Дарья Найко)
- not working anymore, i hope you could find a way guys cause this relevance filter is unbearable...
- Jane Xemylixa
- They cut it from API, too, so this doesn't work anymore. Was fun while it lasted I guess
- Хороший Человек
- It works intermittently. It's not perfect. For example, you have to add a space to get the filters to work. Or maybe it's perfect. Nothing to compare it to. But it's better than nothing. Thanks! I hope the fight with the developers will be fierce and we will emerge victorious.
- The Cmedia Canada, Inc.
- I'm deeply sorry that your extension is not protected by safe-browsing and it may have malware. Please fix it for greater good.

- I missed sorting by upload date and view count so much. This extension restores all the classic filters and even lets you combine them. Simple, lightweight, and does exactly what it promises.
- TECH SITES
- Exactly what YouTube removed. This extension brings back Last Hour, Upload Date, View Count, and Rating filters just like YouTube used to have before. Works smoothly, clean UI, and no unnecessary permissions. Makes YouTube search actually usable again.
