About Watched Videos On YouTube Remover

Clean up your YouTube playlists by watch progress or upload date. YouTube's built-in playlist cleanup options are limited. Watched Videos On YouTube Remover adds two dedicated actions to Watch Later and playlists you can edit: remove videos based on watched progress, or remove videos uploaded before a date you choose. Confirm the cleanup and follow its progress directly on YouTube. KEY FEATURES • Remove videos at or above your chosen watch threshold • Keep partially watched videos in the playlist • Remove old playlist entries by video upload date • Choose the cutoff date before cleanup begins • Works with Watch Later and editable custom playlists • Automatically loads playlist entries as YouTube makes them available • Shows separate loading and removal progress • Cancel safely before the next video is removed • Confirmation before cleanup begins • English and German interface BUILT FOR CONTROL The safe default watch threshold is 100%. You can deliberately choose any value from 0% to 100%—for example, a lower value when you want videos with skipped outros to count as watched. For old playlist entries, choose “Remove videos before date.” The date defaults to one year ago and can be changed before you continue. Date-based cleanup removes matching playlist entries regardless of watch progress. Videos whose upload date cannot be recognized are kept. Press Enter to finish editing a valid date. Then activate the menu action to review and confirm cleanup. Relative upload ages shown by YouTube are rounded, so inferred dates near your cutoff are approximate. YouTube loads large playlists in batches, so processing them can take some time. The extension keeps the current loading or cleanup status visible throughout the operation. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No separate account required • No analytics or tracking • No browsing or viewing history stored • No data sold or shared • Open source under GPL-3.0 HOW TO USE 1. Open Watch Later or a playlist you can edit. 2. Open the playlist action menu. 3. Choose “Remove watched videos” or “Remove videos before date.” 4. Set the watched threshold or cutoff date and confirm. 5. Follow the progress card or cancel when needed. The extension only removes videos from the selected playlist. It does not delete videos from YouTube. FREE WITH OPTIONAL SUPPORT All features are free. The “Support this tool” link in the playlist menu opens the matching English or German product page in a new tab. You can optionally support maintenance through PayPal or Buy Me a Coffee there. Contributions are never required and do not unlock features. The link opens only after a click, sends no referrer, and contains no playlist or viewing data. WHAT’S NEW IN VERSION 1.2.3 • Added an optional “Support this tool” link below the playlist cleanup actions • English and German link text and product pages • All cleanup features remain free, with no additional permissions Source code and issue tracker: https://github.com/7evenk/WatchedVideosOnYouTubeRemover Project website: https://7evenk.github.io/watched-videos.html Watched Videos On YouTube Remover is an independent project and is not affiliated with YouTube or Google.
