YouTube periodically pauses video playback after detecting user inactivity by showing a 'Continue watching?' confirmation dialog. This extension solves the annoyance of having videos stop during long listening sessions, background music playback, or when the user is away from the keyboard.
1. User installs the extension and browses YouTube/YouTube Music normally. 2. The content script (content.js) injects autoconfirm.js into YouTube pages. 3. autoconfirm.js uses a MutationObserver to watch for the inactivity confirmation popup. 4. It monitors user activity (mouse, keyboard) to track idle state. 5. When the 'Continue watching?' popup appears and the user is idle, the extension auto-clicks the popup container to dismiss it and calls videoElement.play() to resume playback. 6. If the user has actually interacted (moved mouse, pressed keys), the extension allows normal pause behavior.

The extension contains no payment processing, no subscription logic, no feature gating, no license checks, no premium tier, and no upgrade prompts. The 'pro' keyword hits are false positives from 'processInteraction' function names. The donate-paypal.png image exists in the package but is not referenced in any source code - it is a dead asset with no functional integration. The extension is fully functional with all features available to all users.

- The extension operates entirely client-side on YouTube/YouTube Music pages. It contains no authentication logic, no login UI, no OAuth flows, no account creation, and no API calls to any authentication service. The content script and autoconfirm.js work directly on the DOM without any user identity requirement. The 'session' keyword hits refer to navigator.mediaSession (Media Session API for media key handling), not authentication sessions.
Windows 11 Chrome for windows / Version 134.0.6998.178 (Official Build) (64-bit) No issues at all. I've been using this extension for multiple years with no issues. Ideally any chromium based browser this plugin should work for, but there is a chance it will not. Especially on mobile. If this extension is not working for you I imagine it's due to your chrome version being out of date, or your entire OS, or you are using some cursed ChromeOS/ARM build of chrome.
I don't know why, but this stop working the Idea is a 5 star but no action PLEASE FIX IT
не работает! в youtube music как останавливалось через несколько песен (и вылазило окно с подтверждением) так и с приложением, со всеми включенными там флажками оно останавливаются на паузу и стоять так может хоть час, пока сам не нажмешь - продолжить воспроизведение.

Stopped working. Please fix
Worked for a long time, but hasn't been updated to recent changes and no longer does anything but block the popup (video still pauses). Will update to 5 stars review when it functions again.
