About Focus Tube

Focus Tube helps you watch YouTube with fewer distractions. Choose what to hide from the toolbar popup: comments and related videos are hidden by default; descriptions, channel information, and Shorts are optional. Turn on Shorts hiding to remove Shorts shelves, video cards, and navigation across supported desktop and mobile YouTube pages. Opening a Shorts URL returns you to YouTube’s home page. Changes apply to open tabs automatically. Your choices are saved with Chrome sync. Focus Tube does not collect browsing activity, use analytics, or send data to a developer server.
