Our take

Choose it specifically for a Safari-based viewing habit

Filtering the feed, search and recommendations can reduce repeated short-video prompts.

Keep in mind: It does not work inside the YouTube app, and website changes can affect extension behavior.

What you can do

  • Shorts-feed filtering
  • Shorts removal from search results
  • Shorts recommendation filtering in Safari

Good for

  • Users intentionally watching YouTube in Safari

Consider alternatives for

  • People expecting device-wide blocking or changes to the native YouTube app

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 15.4.
  • It does not work inside the YouTube app, and website changes can affect extension behavior.

Privacy & permissions

A Safari extension needs website access to alter pages; review permissions and the developer disclosure.
