YouTube Anti Translate
Extension Actions
- Extension status: Featured
A small extension to disable YouTube video titles/audio/descriptions autotranslation.
YouTube title translation is helpful for beginners, but once you know the language well enough to understand original titles, it quickly becomes frustrating. Even worse, there's no proper way to disable this — unless you change your YouTube country, which messes up your recommendations and trends.
This extension fixes the problem. Over 50,000 users trust it to restore YouTube the way it was meant to be.
Features:
✨ Restores original video titles instead of auto-translated ones
🔇 Disables automatic audio translations (dubbing)
📱 Supports YouTube Shorts — restores both audio and titles
📱 Also works on mobile (m.youtube.com) — untranslates both titles, descriptions, and audio (beta)
🔔 Fixes translations in notifications — get the real video titles back
⚙️ Works automatically — no configuration or API keys needed
🧼 Lightweight and safe — clean code, no tracking, open source
🌐 Works on homepage, trending, subscriptions, and more
💖 This is a completely free, open‑source project maintained by volunteers. If the extension has helped you, please consider supporting the original creator at https://www.patreon.com/zpix1 or the maintainers at https://github.com/zpix1/yt-anti-translate.

No more awkward or misleading title translations — get YouTube back the way it was meant to be.

Автоматический перевод заголовков на YouTube может быть полезен для новичков, но если вы уже понимаете язык, такие переводы начинают раздражать. Особенно неприятно, что отключить их нельзя — только сменой страны в настройках, что ломает рекомендации и тренды.
Это расширение решает проблему. Более 50 000 пользователей доверяют ему возвращение настоящего YouTube.
Возможности:
✨ Восстанавливает оригинальные заголовки видео вместо автопереводов
🔇 Отключает автоматический перевод звука (дубляж)
📱 Поддержка YouTube Shorts — возвращает оригинальные аудио и заголовки
📱 Работает и на мобильной версии (m.youtube.com) — возвращает оригинальные заголовки и описания
🔔 Исправляет переводы в уведомлениях — возвращает настоящие заголовки видео
⚙️ Работает автоматически — без настроек и ключей API
🧼 Легкое и безопасное — чистый код, без слежки, с открытым исходным кодом
🌐 Работает на главной, в рекомендациях, подписках и трендах
💖 Это полностью бесплатный open‑source‑проект, поддерживаемый энтузиастами. Если расширение оказалось вам полезным, пожалуйста, поддержите оригинального автора на странице донатов https://www.patreon.com/zpix1 или мейнтейнеров на GitHub https://github.com/zpix1/yt-anti-translate.

- Love the thing, insane that there needs to be an extension for this.
- Amul Star
- A big thank you! Youtube has a habit of making negative quality of life changes to Youtube. Auto-dub with no option to disable it is another one in a long line of those. You brought back normal shorts and videos in youtube.

- Everyday I hate Google's useless features more and more. Thank you for this extension.

- That extension defeats the monolingual rednecks at YouTube

- Roberto S. Gorak
- It works in Brave. 5 stars. I will install it in every computer I get my hands on.
- Ohad Barda
- ✨ Great extension, works perfectly once set up! 👍 @Ivan Baksheev - Please note! the instructions for mobile 📱 are not clear and actually does not exist at all in the extension description. Please add a short guide 📝 on how to install and use it on Android (for example: mention that Chrome ❌ doesn’t support extensions, but users can install it via Firefox 🦊 or Kiwi Browser 🌴). Clear info and step-by-step instructions would save people a lot of confusion 🙏. Thanks! 🙌

- GreaseNuts
- saved me from ruining my day from horrible decisions from youtube who don't know how to give it's users freedom and option to turn off the stupid auto-translate feature, thanks again for the extension, and yeah as of 28/9/2025, the extension DOES WORK.
- AX Crusnik
- Thanks. Youtube as usual is absolutely braindead when it comes to common sense.
- Jörg Steinert
- Thx!
- Jan Sobieski
- Does not work as of 9/27/25. In all fairness I can't get any translate blocker to work at the moment which is why I'm not leaving a poor star rating as either Youtube patched you out or I can't make these work properly.

- Koen Heltzel
- I don't want to have German / Dutch titles translated which is why I installed the extension, but Japanese titles I do need translated. So I often translate the whole page on Japanese videos, but this extension doesn't play nice in that case, the video title will flicker between English and Japanese.
