About Shorts for the Lazy

YouTube Shorts auto scroll, made effortless. Shorts for the Lazy automatically scrolls to the next YouTube Short when the current one ends, so you can watch hands-free without swiping or clicking. Auto scroll YouTube Shorts: set it once and sit back. Unlike YouTube's built-in loop, which replays the same Short, it moves to the next video the moment one finishes. Features: - Auto-scroll for YouTube Shorts: automatically advances to the next Short when the current one finishes - Adjustable auto-next delay from 0 to 5 seconds - Pause or resume auto-scroll anytime with a button on the Shorts page - Countdown on the extension icon and Shorts page showing seconds left in the current Short - Customizable keyboard shortcut to toggle auto-scroll (Alt+Shift+S, or Cmd+Shift+S on Mac) - Playback speed controls from 0.75× to 2× - Play each Short 1 to 5 times before moving on - Automatically pause playback when the tab is hidden and resume when you return - Skip Shorts shorter or longer than your chosen duration limits - Session limits: stop auto-scroll after a chosen number of Shorts or minutes of watching - Daily and monthly stats: Shorts watched, watch time and auto-scrolls - Searchable watch history with thumbnails and links to your last 200 Shorts, stored locally in your browser - Optional Global Lazyboard: join with a Lazy Name and avatar to compare your stats with other users - Side panel controls that stay accessible while you watch - Light, dark or system theme - Lightweight and fast, built for Chrome, Edge, Brave and other Chromium browsers that support side panels How to auto scroll YouTube Shorts: 1. Install Shorts for the Lazy. 2. Open any video on youtube.com/shorts. 3. That's it. Each Short now scrolls to the next one automatically when it ends. Global Lazyboard (optional) Join the public leaderboard of the world's laziest Shorts watchers at https://lazyboard.hamiken.com.
