YouTube Time Labels Extension

Take notes on YouTube easily with YouTube Time Labels.

Add labels to different times of a video, and skip a video to that time by simply clicking the recorded timestamp on the extension.

Very helpful for long videos where you want to save particular sections (e.g. lecture material, a song from a compilation), or to simply keep track of your favorite videos.

Hotkey to add a timestamp:
Windows: CTRL+SHIFT+Q
MacOS: ⌘+⇧+E

For easy access to the extension, make sure to pin the extension.

Major Features:
- Add and remove videos to the extension, and give videos a custom name.
- Record and delete video timestamps to the extension
- Add custom labels / notes to timestamps.
- Open a video at a particular timestamp from the extension.
- Filter videos by title or timestamp label
- Export / Import data of your saved videos and timestamps.

This is a personal project I made for fun and learning. If you are interested in the source code, please visit the GitHub page: https://github.com/brianlinUM/youtube-timestamps

All YouTube browsing data (e.g. saved videos and timestamps) are handled by this extension solely for the functioning of this extension - it can not save notes about timestamps without saving the timestamp after all. This data is only stored locally on your device, and never transmitted elsewhere; I do not collect your data.

mylhouse :0 (ID: 000000e7339a5f02) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/12/2023 after months of trying different options so i can watch a long podcast on 50% speed over a 48 hour period without ever losing my place in a video EVER EVER EVER xC (i am super ocd hahaha) this is the only utility that has never caused me an issue. every other note or timestamp extension i tried to use would eventually glitch out in some way, causing me to lose my place in a video. finally with this extension i can leave 20 videos open for days and never lose my place because i obsessively tap the shortcut it let me set to alt+x whenever i pause a video and leave the room. then i tap alt+z to open the menu which i can search from etc. and trust me when i say after trying literally dozens of options over months, THIS IS THE WINNER, the one and only thank you to the developer because this actually makes living with disabilities less painful for me <3

Jason Wason (ID: 0000005ca3f95ae2) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/02/2022 Yo, thank you for this extension. It took me forever to find a timestamping extension that ACTUALLY allows you to timestamp during livestreams. You're the best!
