Universal Auto Play & Pause

Universal Auto Play & Pause adds a simple, predictable play–pause rhythm to online audio and video 🤩. Instead of continuous playback, the extension repeats a pattern you control: play → pause → play → pause This makes it easier to repeat spoken phrases, practice listening, or study audio and video content at a comfortable rhythm. 🚀 Universal Auto Play & Pause is especially useful for: • language learning • shadowing spoken phrases • repeating dialogue • studying lectures or technical talks • practicing dictation • reviewing listening materials for language exams • repeating audiobook segments • creating reflection pauses while studying • following subtitles more easily • listening to interviews with controlled pacing The extension works on most websites that use standard HTML5 audio or video. 🚀 Core Features – Automatic Play-Pause Control ⭐️ Custom Play-Pause Timing Choose how long audio or video plays before the extension pauses it automatically. Example rhythm: Play for 5 seconds Pause for 1 second Repeat automatically. ⭐️ Floating Page Control A small floating button appears directly on the page so you can quickly enable or disable the play–pause rhythm without reopening the popup. ⭐️ Default keyboard shortcut: Mac Cmd + Shift + P Windows / Linux Ctrl + Shift + P You can change the shortcut at: chrome://extensions/shortcuts 🚀 Pro Features – Extended Playback Control The Pro version unlocks additional control for longer or more flexible listening sessions. ⭐️ Soft Gap creates smoother audio transitions between play and pause, making listening sessions feel more natural. ⭐️ Extended Timing Ranges Free version Play: up to 30 seconds Gap: up to 1 second Pro version Play: up to 60 seconds Gap: up to 10 seconds ⭐️ Presets Save and quickly switch between timing configurations.
