About Hold to Speed for YouTube

Bring the mobile "long-press to 2x" gesture to your keyboard. • Hold Z — play faster while held, back to normal on release • X — skip forward 5s (hold to keep skipping) • C — rewind 5s (hold to keep rewinding) • Double-click the right side of the player to skip forward, the left to rewind Keys, hold speed (1.5x-4x) and seek step are all customizable in the options page. It never triggers while you type in the search box or a comment, and Ctrl/Cmd shortcuts are left untouched. Buttons under the player do the same thing if you prefer the mouse, and they match light and dark themes. Privacy: collects no data, makes no network requests, loads no remote code, and runs only on youtube.com. Your settings stay in your own browser. Made by larkbrooks · https://larkbrooks.dev
