Description from store
Transform your Udemy learning experience with native keyboard shortcuts that actually work!
🔑 THE PROBLEM: Udemy doesn't support media keys by default. Your F7, F8, and F9 keys do nothing, forcing you to constantly reach for your mouse to control video playback.
✨ THE SOLUTION: This extension enables native media key support on Udemy, giving you seamless video control without interrupting your learning flow.
⚠️ NEW EXTENSION NOTICE: Chrome may show a security warning during install. This is normal for new extensions - just click "Continue to install". Fully safe and Google-approved!
🎯 WHAT IT DOES:
• F7 - Seek backward 10 seconds (perfect for replaying concepts)
• F8 - Play/pause video instantly
• F9 - Seek forward 10 seconds (skip repetitive parts)
• Works automatically on all Udemy courses
• No configuration needed - install and use immediately
💻 CROSS-PLATFORM COMPATIBILITY:
• Windows: All three keys (F7/F8/F9) work perfectly
• Mac: All three keys (F7/F8/F9)
• No flickering or conflicts with Udemy's player
🚀 WHY YOU NEED THIS:
✓ Learn faster with fluid video navigation
✓ Stay focused without mouse interruptions
✓ Review difficult concepts effortlessly
✓ Professional-grade media control experience
✓ Works with any Udemy course instantly
✓ Smart tab detection - works even with multiple Udemy courses open
🔒 PRIVACY & PERMISSIONS EXPLAINED:
This extension requires "tabs" permission to track which Udemy tab you're currently using, ensuring media keys control the right video when you have multiple tabs open. We ONLY access Udemy.com tabs - never your browsing history or other websites. The extension is completely local and collects zero personal data.
• ✓ Only works on Udemy.com (nowhere else)
• ✓ No data collection or tracking
• ✓ No external servers or analytics
• ✓ Tabs permission used solely for multi-tab media control
• ✓ Open source and transparent functionality
Perfect for students, professionals, and lifelong learners who want efficient, distraction-free video control during online courses.
