About Unseen: YouTube Watch History Control
Take control of your YouTube watch history recording.
Unseen is a utility extension designed to prevent specific videos from being registered in your YouTube watch history. Instead of manually deleting entries after the fact, this extension intercepts and blocks recording requests in real-time based on your custom keywords.
This tool is built for users who want to explore content on YouTube without systematically influencing their future recommendations or leaving traces in their activity log.
Features:
- Keyword-based Filtering: The extension analyzes video titles and channel names to decide whether a video should be recorded in your history.
- Preventive Blocking: Intercept playback tracking signals before they reach YouTube's servers.
- Local Management: Your keyword lists are stored exclusively within your browser via chrome.storage. No data is collected or transmitted externally.
- Algorithm Protection: By preventing specific videos from being added to your history, you avoid cluttering your homepage with irrelevant suggestions.
How to use: Simply add terms or channel names into the extension's interface. As long as the extension is active, any video matching your criteria will be viewed "invisibly" regarding your YouTube watch history.
