- Supposedly a "free" blocker yet you need to pay a subscription after you install it. Also it doesn't even do it's job properly as you can just unblock certain shorts from YouTubers you pick if you pay.

- David Zhao
- Bad Bad Bad and you have to pay and other website you don't every have to and some shorts are not every brain rot.
- Austen G
- Sure, it "works" as a free extension. But add it if you want a constant advertisement to "unlock shorts" for every channel. Wasn't like this originally, why are you trying to monetize this? Weird. Go with another blocker.
- Noah Paulson

- Jonas Sieglaff
- Functional, but lacks extremely basic features unless you pay. I uninstalled when they started inserting elements advertising "premium"... there are much better FREE apps that don't sneak additional ads onto YouTube
- Bhargav Bande
- great extension if you want to focus on your work
- Kyle Avery
- it works
- Farhan Kaleem
- The most trash extension ever installed, asks money just for blocking. many extensions out there better
- Lampent51
- Worked great for a while, then it locked disabling the extension behind the premium feature. If disabling it briefly needs a premium subscription, then good riddance to this, I'll find something else.
- Emir Memedi
- seem pretty chill so yea 5 stars
- Nguyễn Sỹ Kim Bảo
- My life getting better using this extension belive me im not a bot

- Works
- someguy 2552
- Does what it says on the can. Simple as that.
- Yawr uj
- w app for short attention span
- sneekydart
- Does what is says on the label. I find the fact that disabling the extension is locked behind a "premium" subscription quite insane honestly. That's the main reason i'm rating so poorly. Also find it quite buggy sometimes so it'd prob be 4/5 if it weren't for the stupid premium feature lock
