YouTube Clickbait-Buster

Sometimes you see a video in your recommendations with an interesting title or eye-catching thumbnail and clicks on it, just to find out the content wasn't what you were expecting or it was a clickbait. This extension enables you to take a closer look on the video content before actually clicking on it, by peeking the:

• Video content
• Audio transcription or subtitles
• Description
• Comments
• Channel

You can also view the:

• Thumbnail in the highest resolution available
• Full titles

To do that, you just need to click on the recommended video's menu (the three dots button) and choose the option you want. It works on pretty much all pages, and is compatible with both YouTube's desktop and mobile layouts, and dark theme.

Peek video content

When you peek the video content, it's shown to you the video's storyboard, which is a series of snapshots from the video in different moments from the beginning to the end. You can click the timestamps to open the video directly in the part you are interested in.

Peek audio transcription

While the "Peek video content" feature enables you to check the visual content of the video, the "Peek audio transcription" feature enables you to check the verbal content. This is most useful for videos that are just someone talking about something, or videos that you don't know exactly what it is about and you just need to peek the first few spoken sentences where the presenter explains it.
