YouTube Clip Saver

Save YouTube clips instantly. 5 themes, custom durations, search, notes & timeline. All local — no account needed. YouTube Clip Saver lets you bookmark any moment in a YouTube video with a single click — or a single keypress. No account. No upload. Everything stays on your device. ── HOW IT WORKS ── While watching any YouTube video, a row of quick-save buttons appears directly on the player. Click a button (or press S) to save a timestamped clip. Open the popup to browse, search, and manage everything you've saved. ── WHAT'S NEW IN V2 ── 🎨 5 Button Themes Choose the style that fits your setup — switch instantly from the popup without opening settings. • Glass — frosted dark panel with soft shadows • Classic — bold red panel, clean white buttons • Aurora — animated shifting gradient, alive and dynamic • Retro — dark LCD panel with amber keycap-style buttons • Pills — no panel at all, floating color pill buttons ⏱ Custom Quick-Save Durations Replace the fixed 30s / 1m / 2m buttons with any values you want. Set up to 5 durations. The first one is used by the keyboard shortcut. ⌨ Keyboard Shortcut Press S on any YouTube video to instantly save a clip using your first duration. No mouse needed. 🔍 Search & Filter Type anything in the popup search bar to instantly filter clips by video title or your own notes — across all saved videos. 📝 Notes on Clips Add an inline note to any saved clip directly in the popup. Auto-saved as you type. Great for remembering why you saved something. ⏰ Timeline Bar Clip timestamps shown as clickable badges at the top of each video group. Tap any badge to jump straight to that clip — no scrolling needed. ── ALSO IN V2 ── • Import JSON — restore from any backup file • Export CSV / JSON — download your full clip library • Notifications toggle — turn save toasts on or off • Clip direction — save backward (before now) or forward (after now) ── PRIVACY ── 100% local.
