YouTube does not provide a simple built-in way to fully remove Shorts, recommendations, autoplay, comments, and other distractions. Superpower YouTube helps you use YouTube intentionally instead of getting pulled into endless feeds, clickbait thumbnails, and “just one more video” loops. Use it for: • Studying and learning • Work and research • Deep focus sessions • Content creation • Digital wellbeing • Reducing time wasted on YouTube 🎯 Common use cases Study and learning Hide Shorts, recommendations, comments, and autoplay so lectures, tutorials, and educational videos stay front and center. Work and research Use YouTube for research without being pulled into unrelated videos, clickbait thumbnails, or endless recommendations. Content creation Keep your YouTube workspace cleaner by hiding distracting feeds, comments, recommendations, and visual noise. Digital wellbeing Reduce binge-watching and create calmer YouTube habits with scheduled focus sessions, autoplay blocking, and protected settings. ⏱️ Focus Session Start a focus timer, such as 25 minutes of focus followed by a 5-minute break. During focus time, Superpower YouTube can automatically hide distractions like Home Feed, Shorts, Explore, Sidebar, Recommendations, End Screen Feed, and Autoplay. 🕒 Recurring Session Choose specific days and hours when YouTube distractions should stay hidden automatically. For example, create a distraction-free YouTube setup during work hours, study time, or evening routines. 🛡️ Protect YouTube Controls Use Protect YouTube Controls to make selected distractions harder to turn back on. You can require typing the distraction name before disabling a YouTube Control, or temporarily lock YouTube Controls for a set time period such as 1 hour, until tomorrow, 3 days, or 7 days. 🔐 Protect Filters Use Protect Filters to make blocked channels, keywords, and users harder to unblock impulsively. Choose how many times you must click UNBLOCK before a blocked item is removed, helping protect your Content Filter from quick changes during moments of distraction. 🔒 Lock Settings Use Lock Settings to protect your YouTube Controls with a password and make it harder to turn distractions back on impulsively. 🧭 Tips for a calmer YouTube • Enable Hide Shorts + Hide Home Feed for a cleaner start • Use Redirect to My Subscriptions to focus only on channels you chose • Combine Disable Autoplay + Hide End Screen Feed to prevent “just one more video” • Use Hide or Blur Thumbnails to reduce clickbait • Use Content Filter to block distracting channels, keywords, and users • Export your blocked items anytime as a backup • Import blocked items to merge saved channels, keywords, and users with your current list • Use Protect YouTube Controls to make it harder before turning distractions back on • Use Focus Session or Recurring Session when you need YouTube for learning or work 👥 Who it’s for • Students using YouTube for lectures, tutorials, and studying • Professionals and researchers who want fewer distra…
