About

YouTube Zoom — Dynamic YouTube Playback

Bring the mobile YouTube experience to desktop.

Dynamic YouTube Playback lets you temporarily speed up any video simply by holding a key. No menus, no clicking the gear icon, and no permanently changing playback speed. Just press, watch faster, and release to instantly return to normal — exactly like the YouTube mobile app.

HOW IT WORKS
Hold / → video plays at 2× speed
Release → playback returns to your previous speed
A small “2× >>” on-screen indicator appears while active

The speed change is temporary and never overwrites your chosen playback settings.

WHY USE IT
Skip slow sections
Review lectures or tutorials faster
Browse long podcasts efficiently
Quickly scan content without changing settings

It feels instant and effortless compared to constantly opening the playback menu.

LIGHTWEIGHT & PRIVATE
Runs only on YouTube pages
No tracking
No analytics
No data collection
No external servers
No background scripts

Everything happens locally in your browser.
