Jan Jurák (ID: 000000952750ec3b) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 04/02/2023 hi, for me it's working youtube autoplay supresor...

diaschulze (ID: 00000088461304ee) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 06/27/2022 The extension works but could be better. The YouTube videos still start automatically for about two seconds before the extension kicks in to stop it. Would prefer if it blocked play immediately so videos don't play until I hit the play button on YouTube.

Adam (ID: 000000f4109a5901) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/29/2022 WORKS!!! :-)

Mikael Juhala (ID: 00000067c9ad3905) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 07/29/2021 It prevents YouTube videos from playing automatically when I open lots of them into new tabs. Normally I would end up with a dozen videos playing at the same time, requiring me to check each tab and pause them manually. Some of the videos will still auto-play if I visit the tab, but not all of them. IMO this works well enough, so 4/5 stars.
