Takes 10 seconds. No sign-up required.

YouTube, without the noise.

You control what you watch. Not the algorithm.

Before

  • Endless Shorts
  • Sidebar distractions
  • Autoplay chains
  • Just one more video

After

  • Clean homepage
  • No recommendations
  • No autoplay
  • You are done when you are done

You open YouTube for one video.

  • Then the feed pulls you in.
  • Shorts grab your attention.
  • Recommendations keep you scrolling.
  • Autoplay keeps you watching.
  • It is not a lack of discipline. It is design.
  • Mute removes these distractions.

With one install:

  • Homepage becomes search-only
  • Shorts disappear
  • Recommendations are hidden
  • Autoplay is turned off

Nothing to configure. Nothing to learn. Install it. It works.

Take back control of your time.
