SkipSeen — Skip Watched Videos on YouTube

Stop YouTube autoplay from replaying videos you've already watched. SkipSeen skips them automatically. Private, no account.

YouTube autoplay keeps replaying videos you've already seen? SkipSeen fixes that. When autoplay lands on a video you've watched, SkipSeen skips it instantly and moves on, so every autoplay is something new instead of a rerun. It can also skip the livestreams and multi-hour videos autoplay drops on you overnight. No setup: install it and keep watching. WORKS FROM DAY ONE SkipSeen reads the red progress bars YouTube already shows on thumbnails, so videos you watched before installing count straight away. You don't have to build up a history first. FEATURES • Automatic skipping — rewatched videos are skipped the moment autoplay starts them. • Skip notice with Undo — every skip shows a quick notice saying why, and one click brings the video back. • Skip livestreams — autoplay won't drop you into a random live stream (on by default). • Length limit — optionally skip autoplay videos longer than a limit you set, from 15 minutes to 4 hours. • Your rules — choose how much of a video counts as watched (30% by default). • Playlist aware — playlists you started on purpose are left alone unless you turn skipping on. • Channel exceptions — never skip the channels you love to rewatch. • Never stuck — after five skips in a row, SkipSeen stops and lets the next video play. • Skip log and stats — see exactly what was skipped and why, and how many videos you've watched. • One-click on/off and clear history, right from the toolbar popup. Videos you click on yourself always play. SkipSeen only steps in when autoplay picks the next video. PRIVATE BY DESIGN SkipSeen works entirely on your own device. Your watch history is stored locally in your browser and is never sent anywhere. No account, no ads, no analytics, no external servers. PERMISSIONS • storage — to remember which videos you've watched and your settings, on your device only. • youtube.com access — so the extension can detect the current video and skip when needed.
