About

PauseLock prevents pausing YouTube videos for a set time after starting playback. It displays a countdown until pausing is allowed again.

How it works:
1. Start a YouTube video
2. A timer appears and counts down
3. During this time, attempts to pause are blocked
4. When the timer ends, normal pausing is restored

Why use PauseLock?
- Stops the habit of constantly pausing videos
- Encourages more focused viewing
- Perfect for podcasts, educational content, and longer videos
- Helps you give content a fair chance before deciding to move on

Features:
- Adjustable timer length (seconds to minutes)
- Live countdown display
- Custom notification messages
- Option to skip ads from counting toward your time
- Can be limited to only videos longer than 5 minutes

Simple, private, and lightweight - no data collection or external connections.
