Thomas Schittli Akros (ID: 000000d102b8dd2b) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 07/30/2023 The description says: Make unlisted YouTube *Playlists* I think it is just for one temporary playlist. But if you just nee one temporary playlist, then this extension is great.

Tobias Frömel (ID: 0000003f85401058) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/07/2023 only working solution for temporary playlists, love it!

bahrta sai (ID: 000000b0dbf87770) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 07/04/2022 It works fine, but honestly I would recommend using the site rather than the extension, only because the site allows you to save multiple playlists like you would bookmarks, which this doesn't.

Maphra Maphra (ID: 0000009d6d5eca01) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/17/2021 Great tool, I was looking for this, actually I found it in a search. Perfect for create temporary playlists. You can save the playlist in the browser favorites and/or share the link. Good Job!

Grey Aria (ID: 0000006b03979b24) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 12/22/2020 This is a really good queue add on. One thing that really impressed me is the ability to drag & drop videos from the YouTube notification drop down to the queue. Here are a few things that could be improved: It would be cool if my mouse scroll wheel worked to scroll through the list. As it is, I have to go over to the scroll bar on the right, click and drag it to go through my playlist. It's annoying that the plus icon needs to be visible in order to add a video to the queue. Since the thumbnails are so big, you can only see about 4 at a time. If you drag a thumbnail to add it to the queue and you haven't scrolled down to the bottom of the list, you can't add the video. You have to click the scroll bar (because the mouse scroll doesn't work), drag it to the bottom of your list and then you'll be able to add the video. Add an option to change the size of the thumbnails in the queue. None of these issues make this add on unusable, but they are small improvements that could vastly improve the user interface and make adding videos even easier. I look forward to seeing where this add on goes and I hope that it stays in active development.
