Allows users to see timestamped comments as they watch YouTube
Features:
- Pause to persist a comment
- Hover over a comment to see its replies
- Click the Comments icon in the video bar to toggle comments on/off
- Click on a comment to open a new tab with that comment at the top of the comment section (useful for replying to comments)
- Use your own YouTube Data API key (pin the extension to your toolbar and open the popup to access)
9/30/23 update: You must now create and enter your own YouTube Data API key. The extension will default to use my key but YouTube has cut down my quota drastically so the extension will probably not work if you don't use your own :(

- (2023-09-22) Dalek: api not working . plus it would be better if you let us see comment by hoverinh opver yt time bar where we can also see at what time theres a comment by a custom color on bar
- (2023-09-21) Tokyo family: thank you for the extension, could you please add multiple sounds or the ability to add one from the computer along with sound volume control
- (2023-05-23) August Crossroads: Recommend it coz this is the only timestamp extension that actually works (other than tempus ig). Choppy UI and all but my only problem is highlighted comments open in a new tab. I don't think you can like or reply within the extension overlay.
- (2023-04-21) Riaz Ali: I thought this extension had stopped working, then it started working again and realized I gotta give it 5 stars
- (2023-04-11) Shahin: I never thought i'd rate an extension one day, and here we are. one of those features I didn't know I needed it until I got it.
- (2023-03-23) smoresxo: Why does it need to read my browsing history thats so creepy
- (2023-03-20) redacted: practical extension that could give you a-lot more insight for sure when watching a video but would have been better if we could have thumbed up or thumbed down a comment overlay in the video itself and maybe also reply especially in the videos where there are a-lot of comments to sort through...
- (2023-02-19) Facundo Zapata: The developer actually fixes the extension when something happens and it stops working. Not many will do that. 5 stars just for that.
- (2023-01-24) Hasan Akdoğan: Yesterday after the fix, I was like: "A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one." Really appreciated!
- (2023-01-24) star dude: Awesome, it's working again. Thanks for updating.
- (2023-01-23) TanderCaz31: I was on my way to watch the 10 hour version of "there is no need to be upset" and noticed that the extension has started working again. goated dev
- (2023-01-23) You're gonna burn alright: Thanks for fixing it dude, i know it can be hard to have motivation to maintain projects, peace.
- (2023-01-23) Floris: Does not work anymore
- (2023-01-12) Proxima Centauri: Doesn't work anymore.
- (2022-12-08) Maneesh Manihar: It breaks this website https://www.youtube.com/account_sharing Edit: Extension not working anymore
- (2022-11-26) Hoschen: This extension has changed my whole youtube experience, thanks for that!❤ Maybe it could be set up to show multiple comments with the same timestamp Some don't show up when they are displayed at the same time
- (2022-11-26) Kevin Nguyen: I like this extension, but it could use a limiter of what comments to display depending on the number of likes they have. I sometimes get 0 or little liked comments that either only typed timecodes or ignorant unpopular comments. Thank you for the extension, though. I never thought that I wanted something like this.
- (2022-11-01) 小光尼リーロン: 請問能分開每一行的時間+評論,分開顯示嗎? 01:10:50 第一行 01:10:51 第二行
- (2022-08-28) Deepesh Rai: Hi Kenny! I am in love with the purpose satisfying nature of this product. I have a small request though - Is it possible to improve the readability of the timestamped comments, it becomes impossible if the running video is with constantly changing frame or the video portion that falls behind the comment is light in colour (especially White and other colour combinations/variants of White). Also will you provide an option to choose popup sounds? Waiting to hear from you, I hope I am able to convey my thought.
- (2022-06-24) Amari Lindsey: It hurts to review it like this, But the fact you have to switch tabs is so infuriating and annoying that i have to take off three stars. Other than that, the extension is good, PLEASE let us respond in the same tab we are currently in, this is a big deal for me because this extension is almost perfect and i use it daily.
- (2022-06-13) Лихандре: Это гениальнейшая идея!
- (2022-06-06) 墨香: 2022年6月6日12点09分,哇,今天看视频的时候左上角突然有评论弹出来了,太好了!终于恢复了!!!我又可以继续看那些有精彩吐槽的搞笑游戏集锦了~ ---------------------------- Setting up API keys(2022年5月23日07点36分,如果扩展不显示评论,可能是默认API用完限额了,可以去设置自己的API试试): https://support.google.com/googleapi/answer/6158862?hl=en&ref_topic=7013279 ---------------------------- 2021年10月9日11点32分,刚刚试了一下,又能用了,太好了w ---------------------------- 最近几天左上角都不显示评论了,换成隔壁的 LOONY : On-Screen YouTube Comments,左上角就会显示评论,可能是这个插件出BUG了吧。
- (2022-05-27) Serj Berbeha: Only one comment is displayed out of n available, make some kind of scrolling list please
- (2022-05-19) Aubree Tanner: Does exactly what it says, but I had to undownload it because it turns out 90% of comments with timestamps are from idiots who think they're philosophers. Also, it would be nice if there was a way to like or respond to comments without changing tabs.
- (2022-05-04) Kidha Gray: Stops working randomly after a few days so I have to delete it and download it again other than that its great!
- (2022-05-02) 01xKeven: Buena pero quisiera que se pudiera cambiar la posición
- (2022-03-30) sub4rctic: would be great if comment stayed on screen when paused. I have to keep skipping back 5 or 6 times to read longer comments because the text keeps disappearing even though the video isn't playing.
- (2022-03-22) Aiden Waters: I love this extension. It works great; you can even toggle it on or off through the YouTube sidebar! The only thing I would ask for is to be able to like and reply to comments through the lil pop-up on the corner. Oh well, at least you can pull it up. Other than that, super well made and deserves more downloads :)
- (2022-03-18) Morena Rocha: Gostei
- (2022-03-17) Tokyo family: Thank you for the extension! just one little problem, 2 days ago, youtube updated something on their website and the extension stopped working on mobile (kiwi browser). could you please update the extension?
- (2022-02-11) 1 Uenu: the icon is too big that i cant control the video and the comments are not showing in the video
- (2022-02-06) The Non Smoker: Sometimes its just too hard to read, I prefer comments floating from east to west on the screen
- (2022-01-27) Brian Smith: Would be great to change the time of appearing comments.Thank you
- (2022-01-23) Steven Herrmann: This is the best extension of it's kind and I can't live without it now! I set mine to 8 seconds and that seems to work pretty well! Of course it would be amazing to be able to like and reply from the popup! But I assume it might not be possible b/c other comment addons do the same thing and open in a new window with the comment on top! If it could be done that would be incredible! A great feature request of mine is to have little red dots or placeholders on the progress bar that we can hover over or click to jump from timestamp to timestamp! Also by glancing at the progress bar wed be able to have an idea how many timestamped comments there are and where! With the option to turn it on or off in the settings! Thanks again for your hard work on this awesome extension!
- (2022-01-14) mylhouse :0: i love this so much (but i do have sugggestions) make it so we can have a maximum size for the text box so long comments dont cover the video (either make a scrollbar or make them expand on hover?) make it so we can use keyboard shortcuts or a button on the progress bar so we can change which corner of the screen the text box is on during playback. since different parts of the screen get used all the time on some videos it would be nice to move it without havingto leave the page make it so we can like the comments without leaving the video a MUST HAVE extension :D
- (2021-12-29) vtastek: great work. Some features i would like to see: - False positives(bible verses) - Scroll to comment
- (2021-12-24) ertup4 play: Maybe you can add option to enter Youtube API key ,that way you can fetch more comments
- (2021-12-23) Abdur Rahman Rahul: I love it. Thanks
- (2021-12-16) neoakira: Genius extension!
- (2021-12-10) Najla N. A: I am not already using it, but I love the idea. Especially I literally always use YCS Extesion to search comment of my current timestamp.. but because it's not really good, when e.g I search for 0:56 but I got 10:56.. Which just give me spoiler🙃 I (maybe) probably will not use this really much tho, but this could be really useful (So i don't need to scroll down to use another extension I use L) Edit: Just try it, it is great.. It just really glitchy rn
- (2021-11-27) Flash Cloud: Doesn't work. I see the icon at the bottom of the YT screen so that at least is functional but seeing floating comments like the screenshots show? Forget it.
- (2021-08-20) Cadrieldur: IT JUST WORKS. I love this ingenious extension. Thank you.
- (2021-06-09) So1: this plugin is pretty unique idk how i never thought about it lol, great plugin
- (2021-05-29) Shade Hades: Excellent, and still works unlike some other similar addons. After using it for a day I noticed that it was sometimes hard to notice if a comment was being displayed, especially in fullscreen, so I had the idea to add an audio 'ding' bell when a popup comment appears, if you want the same: - search 'static\js\main.js' for 'o?(l=t', just before it add: var myAudio = new Audio(chrome.runtime.getURL("ding.wav"));myAudio.play() - in 'manifest.json', edit the last line to: "web_accessible_resources": ["*.svg", "*.png", "ding.wav"] - find a .wav audio file you want to use and put it in the root folder, name it 'ding.wav' Or, if you're feeling brave, get my version here and install in 'Developer Mode' with 'Load Unpacked': https://www.mediafire.com/file/ggpsx6gs2rl07ic/YouTube-Comments_v1.18.0-audio_mod.rar/file
- (2021-04-09) ArticSkyz: How does it work its not showing any thing on the side
- (2021-03-16) Lu Valour: Where has this been all my life?! Very simple and useful, but somehow, I can't scroll down long replies, I really want to read them :_: And, also devs, if you can add the ability to like and reply to the comments, this extension would be 1000% better!
