"Improve Youtube is a fantastic tool for content creators and video enthusiasts alike. The platform offers a wide range of features that make video editing and publishing a breeze. The user interface is intuitive and easy to navigate, making it accessible to users of all levels of expertise.

Overall, I highly recommend Improve Youtube for anyone looking to improve their video production workflow."

A toggle for comments in the sidebar would be perfect otherwise nice extension :D

It is awesome, just some fixes needed.. A; A fullscreen theater mode. I installed a userstyle on stylus a bit ago (many months) and it breaks with the extension on. B; More features. I like the other fonts, but they are not appealing to me. I would like to use a local font. I also would like more themes.; Overall, this is a awesome extension, ngl.

Wonderful.

Hide "Details" buttons dont work

Used to be a 5 star app, but now nothing seems to be working consistently. The 'reverse playlist' function was the thing I used the most, now I can't get that to appear no matter everything I try. Have even tried the beta but still no luck.

I like it a lot and it makes my YouTube browsing so much better! One thing I have to say though is that I was testing around and in "Appearance, Comments" the hide avatar button allows me to hide avatars but NEVER get them back without uninstalling this app. If this gets fixed then this is an incredibly cool application and I can't find any other bugs!

I don't know if you can, but if possible, please ad an option to hide videos that are shorter than 1 minute, or anything labeled as a "short."

Would you please add: Resume watching videos from the last moment when the page is refreshed.

the adblock is not work, subtitles too

- setting sidebar to be on the left, each time the page refreshes It goes back to right again. - when switching the tabs video starts to play not matter if you I've paused it or not. normally It should respect the playing status.

Great plugin, when ad skip is on, it wont skip 15 second ads.

I was a bit disappointed with the reverse playlist option. :C Was hoping it would help fix those long playlists made up of several hundred vids from a single person (when the option to add a playlist isn't there), but instead it can only handle, what looks to be 79 or 80 videos and stops there. Not bad, but ultimately not what I was looking for. Overall good though.

please bring auto like option.

Nice. Will use in future.

Almost perfect but can't you make the seek function customizable? 10 seconds seek backwards/forwards is too much, I prefer it to be at 5 seconds. I think this is easily doable without much work. Other than that it's a 5 star for me.

Conflicts with YouTube Center Developer Build 549

Quality/Reolution setting doesnt stick for me.

Well its really awesome , which i would recommend to my friends.Thank you

Came here from the non-beta because the option to prevent autoplay upon starting a video stopped working a couple days ago on the non-beta This one work just perfectly, dunno what changed but dang good work

Great, but I cant figure out how the 'Blacklist' works/what its supposed to work...

works as advertised.

mini player option still removes the player fully when you scroll down and back up

Custom playback speed shown in Player as Normal. Please fix

This has to be the best extension I've used so far. I don't say this because it's extremely useful (which it is) but because there are constantly updates coming in and the developer actually seems to listen when you report a bug and then tries to fix it as soon as possible. Thank you so much for making this extension and being just an absolutely awesome developer!

Overall, it's a good extension but the 'hide annotations' function isn't working.

Works great! And since it's open-source, anyone can help improve the extension. In fact, 15 minutes ago I just submitted a pull-request which will add the ability for the playback-speed to be set anywhere from 0.1x to 16x, rather than the regular limit of 2x. :)

has (WORKING) reverse playlists. honestly how hard is this youtub? thanks improvedyoutube for doing what they cant. i look forward to checking out the rest of the features, keep up the great work

works well. but wish it had a way to control the video volume from the scroll wheel. :)

Love this extension but it seems like the entire dark theme has changed in an update or bug that just popped up yesterday. The material dark theme no longer seems to exist and has been replaced with a very ugly and high-contrast dark theme that is harsh on the eyes. Hope this gets fixed...

I'm loving this!

its good to use this extension helps to sort he best video for you.

good addon specially it works on offline mode

Please bring back scroll to adjust volume....

WOW , beatiful and very useful app . I love it.

this is very nice and gives much of features. carry on your good works. it will get more popularity in future

I love this application it gives me more settings, especially the player option, so amazing so cool.

Heard about this from a friend. He loves it!!! I've tried it and it's great!!!

Very nice.

I'm loving it, its giving me the best watching experience.

I have always found the format of youtube quite boring and in on its own its not that functional. with this i can customize youtube however i want and IM IN LOVE. n its free, so thank you so much guys, i really appreciate it.

it actually sets the video quality to the value I select, instead of setting it to auto + selected quality. this alone makes it a 5 stars for me as that is the primary reason why i use it.

I love it because I am able to access youtube now in a much more preferable setting.

Latest version glitches out the play/pause shortcut key (aka the space bar) so it's useless. I have to click the space bar like 10 times for the video to actually pause, and regardless of how many times i press it it won't start playing the video after finally pausing.

Used to love it, but then they started releasing updates that broke every single feature. Is there any chance that you guys can put up a "legacy" version o the extension up on the store, that you don't update every other week? Oh, and you broke video resizing. Again. The resizing tool doesn't change a thing, video remains normal sized. On both the beta and the normal branch. EDIT: Okay, you can fix the resizing by first going to theater mode.

Can't find 'annotations'.

Changelog August 1 Everything is fixed after surprising Youtube update July 16 - Several bugs fixed. Features redesigned: - "Video autoplay" - "Playlist autoplay" - "Channel autoplay" - ImprovedTube works in frames now. Features added: (On/Off Switches:) - "HD Thumbnail" - "Allow loudness normalization" - "Allow video ads / advertisements" - "Subtitles" - "Allow 60fps"

This BETA version is sometime Play/Pause Button Missing but in original it's showing directly.

Great extension for a daily Youtube viewer!

developers latest patch allows extensions to read web history. cya was good while it lasted

Better than the other version, which requires browser history permissions all of the sudden. Works as intended.

Great tool and no browser history spying for this version. Pay attention to your data folks.

fantastic 30fps beta feature is broken.

No longer working properly after the latest update

Youtube still on auto even though i have it set to 1080p EDIT:Has not been fixed

In this new version, everything seems to work smoothly except: (i) On the "old version" menu of v0.76, - clicking on any other tab or any other window auto-pauses the video, even if the auto-pause feature is turned OFF - video quality remains on auto when you first open a YouTube tab (ii) On the "new version" menu of v0.76, - player background is not transparent even though options are set to be such, while the video bar extends now across the entire page (vs within the video's width alone) - video quality also remains on auto when you first open a YouTube tab

Videos now auto pause if I click over to a new tab in my browser or click off the browser onto my desktop, very annoying.

good

as of 12/22 it stopped working. old version still works.

Can we get the option to import/export settings?

Worst than the old version and keeps resetting my settings.

Thanks for the great work. Unfortunately opening the theatre mode for me doesn't work, the player would load up in theatre mode properly at the start, then this extension would make it normal size again (inside theatre mode). Not sure if this helps but hopefully it can be fix soon.

Extension don't have options anymore, not in the extensions page and not on youtube, I can't change the awful default settings so it's useless.

I don't know how to say it, but the older version is better. In this version I can't change the position of the Mini Player, and it keeps autoplaying whenever I gp to to the top, and for some reason the Quality options don't seem to work on this version

Great extension used it for ages but I'm having an issue where when a video starts it pauses and then reloads. I'm assuming it's to change to fit to window size, but it's quite annoying and would like to see if it's possible to have fixed.

Some major issues for me: 1. Player appereance "fit window" is complete garbage now. Before it used to fit the player in window horizontally. Currently it also does it vertically as well, filling the unused space of the video black. 2. Arrow key focus not working. Previously I could just press up/down to tune volume and right/left to move +-5 seconds, but now I first have to click the player which is super annoying. 3. Search bar turns black when in video page.

I can't get the player size to work. I like to have my player size fit the entire window, but whenever I enable it, the player doesn't show up or play.

Great new menu and resolved issues I had with the previous version. Bit glitchy though...

Great extension but the new version (understandably) has some way to go. When opening a video it is a lot slower than on the old version and it seems the player reloads once or twice before starting. Also at the end of videos it immediately goes to the next video instead of the 'up next' timer that was there previously. Please allow us to keep this! When scrolling for other videos it does not pause like it used to instead going straight to the next video on autoplay.

The new menu is great! and there is great support, if you have any issues rest assured the developer is working on a fix!

:I For no reason the live chat and playlist sidebars just stop being clickable. Refreshing doesn't work. And the related videos at the end of a video do nothing. This Is very annoying.

This is a great extension.

Extension used to auto set to theater mode, does not do that anymore. Something that could be added back? EDIT: Just found that this and the player size options dont properly work sometimes when coming from subs. Reload fixes this and player size fixes itself.

New menu is much easier to use. Only request is for some sort of “picture in picture” as you scroll down the page, while reading comments.

Like it somewhat more then the older one just wish that when you hide the header it only hide it with the player like the old one does.

It's better than the original, and the color change option is a very nice touch. The header is a little broken in hidden mode, though. It appears when the mouse goes over where it would've been if the header were visible, making clicking anything at the top of the page impossible.

Much better. Works great.
