Features
Built for people who actually use YouTube.
Small, focused controls that change how your feed feels — without changing how YouTube works.
Hide watched videos
Remove videos you've already seen from Home, channels, and video grids.
Dim + Badge mode
Keep watched videos visible but muted, with a red WATCHED label.
Watch threshold
Choose what percentage of a video counts as watched.
Lightweight
Runs quietly on YouTube without accounts, ads, or tracking scripts.
Before / After
Stop seeing the same videos on repeat.
YouTube keeps showing repeated watched videos.
CleanTube dims watched videos and marks them so fresh content stands out.
Privacy-first, by design.
CleanTube does not collect, sell, or transmit personal data.
Preferences are stored using Chrome storage so the extension remembers your settings — and that's it.
