Brilliant app that helps make modern Youtube actually usable. Frequent updates too! Only thing it sorely needs is an easy way to either sync or transfer settings between devices - keeping things set up properly across iPhone, iPad and two Macs is a real pain.

The 2 main features I need: 1 - remove shorts 2 - allow background play I pay for YouTube to avoid ads, but shorts are toxic so I can’t use the YouTube app. Instead I use browsers. I’d prefer to stay in Safari (hence grabbing this tool) but sadly background playback doesn’t work, so for now I need to stick with Brave

Love this plugin, really helps me not fall into the YouTube algorithm rabbit hole. Highly recommend!

今まで使えていたのだけれど、今日あたりからおすすめやショートが表示されてるようになってしまった。おま環なのかな…残念 追記(9月16日) 元に戻りました!早急な改善、感謝いたします。

Worked like a charm prior to more recent iOS 26 updates. Currently it only works by toggling the extension on/off manually every time on each separate window/instance of YouTube.

Je n’ai pas compris pourquoi l’extension n’avait qu’une évaluation et qu’elle soit à une étoile. Le fait qu’aucun commentaire n’ait été laissé n’aide pas. Peut-être s’attendait-t-il/elle a une application ? Ce n’est ici qu’une extension Safari, mais elle fait très bien le job. Il n’y a qu’une fonction qui déconne, c’est l’arrêt de la lecture automatique des vidéos. Tout le reste est nickel, et j’utilise Stop The Madness pour l’autoplay. Il manque encore des choses, il manque une certaine granularité dans le contrôle de la barre de gauche, mais sans ça l’application fait vraiment le boulot. UnTrap ralentissait énormément YouTube pour moi, ce n’est pas le cas de Control panel for YouTube. Pas déçu.

Otherwise would be really good. I’m trying to see less comments from online people.
