Overview
Product summary
Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.
Youtube keeps track of your watch history and automatically marks videos that you have already watched. They however only mark recently seen videos, which is kind of disappointing. This addon fixes this issue and keeps track of your entire watch history, such that not only the recently seen videos are being marked.
***How can the persistence of the database be ensured?*** There is an export and import feature, which makes it easy to create a backup of the history. This backup can easily be archived such that you can ensure that you never lose your history.
***How can I make sure that the database is complete?*** The automatic synchronization only considers the recent activity. You are thus encouraged to manually initiate a complete synchronization in the settings, which incorporates as much of your history as possible.
***Something is broken, I demand a fix!*** Please be considerate when leaving a review, this is a free extension that I invest my spare time in. If there is something that does not work then please file an issue on Github where it is easier for me to track.

Worked great for months but as of Chrome version 99.0.4844.84 it no longer works. Not sure if Youtube updated and broke the plugin or if it's Chrome's fault. It's a shame the dev doesn't have anything on their github or any way to report issues.
I HAVE LOOKED FOR THIS SO MUCH. I KNOW IT's NOT EASY BUT THANK YOU For YOUR WORK! Edit: It was working Fine but recently It is still working but my Thumbnails aren't getting dim/blurred anymore still it says "WATCHED"| tried removing reinstalling and clearing cache but no works. Options are enabled in the settings
(mac os) Could not import my history from the file I exported 10 minutes before. (The file was unselectable) Lost all my history. Maybe still recoverable from the local backup of my chrome folder but I wouldn't bother. Check if the backup system works for you before you start using!
Great extension but sometimes dont work and i have to sync mannually
Since it hasn't been updated since mid 2021, and its currently a month into 2022 I figured it wasn't going to be perfect. To its credit though, it does a pretty decent job but as you may have assumed by now, there are bugs. - When I have videos lined up in my queue, it seems to mark 2 or 3 of the videos directly following the video I am currently watching as "watched" when I 100% haven't watched them, they don't show up in browser history, nor youtube watched history. Not a big deal once you know of the bug as its easily ignored. - Some videos won't be marked as watched when they appear on the recommended videos section beside a video. I'll add them to my queue, thinking "huh I thought I watched this one.." and then scroll up to my queue and realize it's now marked as watched. Little annoying but easy to just remove from queue. So far these are the only bugs I have really noticed, but more may crop up as Google provides more updates to chrome. As for how it can be improved, I wish it had the option from the browser toolbar to be able to toggle hide/show of watched videos so that youtube can load new recommended videos. I find myself looking for another video to choose and 75% of the recommended section is videos that are marked as watched, so I have like 10 videos to choose from which I haven't chosen already because I don't have an interest in watching them.
Super !...
Хорошее расширение. А главное, работает.
What's the point when the feature does not automaticly remove the videos from suggestions? I mean I know what I allready saw so yeah ... marking it only makes it faster for the eye to realize wich will be the only reason I keep it installed but I hoped for it to have the feature to remove/block/sign as not intrested the videos so we still don't have to do it our self. : /
Absolutely perfect. Hope you receive enough support on this so this can stay alive.
Incredible app!
