Auto Jump Ahead for YouTube

About

Auto Jump Ahead for YouTube automates skip actions that YouTube already provides, so you spend less time reaching for the skip button.

WHAT IT DOES
• Auto Jump Ahead — When YouTube shows its own built-in "Jump Ahead" control on a video, the extension activates it for you automatically.
• Sponsor / ad chapter skipping (optional) — When a video has chapters and one is clearly labeled as an ad or paid promotion (for example "Ad Break", "Sponsor", "Paid Promotion"), the extension can skip that chapter. This relies on the video's own chapter markers.
• A small on-screen notice appears whenever a skip happens, with an Undo button.
• Two simple on/off toggles in the popup. Music videos are left alone by default.

WHAT IT DOES NOT DO
• It is not an ad blocker. It does not block, remove, or skip the video ads YouTube plays before or during a video.
• It does not skip every sponsor mention. It only acts on information YouTube already provides: whether Jump Ahead is available, and chapters that are explicitly labeled.
• It does nothing on videos that have no Jump Ahead and no labeled chapters.
• Jump Ahead is a YouTube feature and only appears where YouTube chooses to offer it.

PRIVACY
• No account, no sign-in, no tracking, no analytics.
• The only thing stored is your two on/off settings, saved locally through Chrome.
• Nothing is sent to the developer. Privacy policy: ‹FILL: https://jiahongc.github.io/auto-jump-ahead-for-youtube/privacy.html›
