ViewSense — YouTube Time Tracker

Ever sit down to watch a quick YouTube video, only to look at the clock and realize two hours have passed? ViewSense is your real-time analytics engine and intent-mirror for YouTube. It runs quietly in the background as an elegant side panel, giving you complete visibility into exactly how much time you are spending on the platform and what type of content you are consuming. Stop wondering where your time went and take control of your digital diet.
