Custom Seek Steps – YouTube Skip Forward

Set your own YouTube skip forward / back step for the arrow keys. Replace the default 5s seek with 1s, 10s, 30s — whatever you want.

Custom Seek Steps lets you skip forward on YouTube by exactly the amount you want. By default, the left and right arrow keys jump 5 seconds — too big for catching a detail, too small for skipping an intro. This extension puts you in control: set your own custom seek step in seconds and the arrow keys will skip forward and rewind by that amount every time. Whether you want a precise 1-second nudge to find the perfect frame or a fast 30-second jump to fly past a sponsor read, you decide the step. Set it once and it just works on every YouTube video. FEATURES • Custom skip forward & rewind — set any seek step (1s, 3s, 10s, 30s) for the arrow keys. • Works with the keys you already use — replaces YouTube's default 5-second arrow-key seek with your own jump size. • Separate forward and back steps — configure a different skip-forward and rewind amount. • Instant and lightweight — no lag, no sign-in, no account. Settings apply the moment you load a video. • Private by design — no tracking and no data collection; everything stays in your browser. HOW TO USE 1. Install Custom Seek Steps and pin it if you'd like quick access. 2. Open the options and enter your preferred seek step in seconds. 3. Go to any YouTube video and press the left or right arrow key — it now skips by your custom amount. GREAT FOR Students scrubbing lectures, editors who need precise repeatable jumps, and anyone who wants to fast forward past intros, ads, or recaps in one keystroke. Stop fighting YouTube's fixed 5-second seek. Custom Seek Steps gives you a YouTube skip-forward and rewind step that matches how you actually watch — set your seconds, use the arrow keys you already know, and move through any video exactly the way you want.
