Video Maximizer Extension

WHAT IT DOES:
Universal Video Maximizer is a free and open source Chrome extension that allows users to watch videos in full-browser-window mode on most websites, without the extension requiring full permissions to every site. It also has a \"theater mode\" that removes the navigation bar and other UI elements for a undistracted viewing experience.

✔ Working great since 2013
✔ Dark themed theater mode
✔ Secure and private!
✔ Great for ultrawide monitors
✔ Free and open source
✔ Control playback speed on most sites (Prime, HBO, Apple, etc)

This extension is FREE and done as a hobby.

설교쟁이 (설교쟁이) (ID: 0000009c29b1de44) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/27/2023 Can't I use the previous version? The latest version is so critical that a permission pop-up window appears for each new site and an error occurs in the YouTube play bar.

Audrey Boedeker (ID: 000000c56567cc7c) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/07/2023 I've been looking for something like this for my class videos, it's easy to use and the image is so CRISP. Far better than just trying to zoom in!
