TubeLiberty helps you set healthy boundaries for YouTube consumption by limiting daily watch time and shorts scrolling. It's not about quitting YouTube — it's about using it intentionally.

HOW IT WORKS                                                                                                                                                                                                       
                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
TubeLiberty runs quietly in the background while you browse YouTube. When you reach your daily limit, you're redirected to the YouTube homepage with options to whitelist the current video, request more time, or 
accept and leave.                                                                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
Requesting more time requires typing a commitment phrase — creating psychological friction that makes you think twice before extending your limits. Your streak only breaks when you choose to extend, not when you
 hit your limit.
