Lumina - Focus Mode for YouTube

Distraction-free learning. Hides the noise, keeps the video left-aligned, and includes a timestamped notepad.

Lumina - Focus Mode for YouTube 🛑 Stop the Doom-Scroll. Start the Deep Work. Is the YouTube algorithm hijacking your study sessions? You open a video for a 5-minute tutorial, but 2 hours later, you’re watching "Top 10 Cats" or endless Shorts. It’s not your fault—YouTube is designed to keep you hooked. Lumina fights back. It proactively hides the algorithmic distractions (Recommended Videos, Comments, Shorts, and the Homepage Feed) and replaces them with a powerful, persistent Study Notepad right inside the video player. It’s the only tool that transforms YouTube from an entertainment trap into a focused e-learning platform. ✨ KEY FEATURES 🛡️ 1. The Distraction Shield We instantly hide the "hook" elements so you never get sidetracked: Hide Sidebar Recommendations: No more "Up Next" rabbit holes. Hide Comments & Live Chat: Ignore the noise and focus on the lecture. Hide Homepage Feed: Open YouTube and see a clean slate, not a grid of clickbait. Hide Shorts: Block the most addictive part of the platform completely. 📝 2. The Floating Study Notepad Don't switch tabs to take notes (and risk getting distracted). Lumina injects a professional note-taking tool directly over the video. Draggable & Resizable: Move the notepad anywhere on the screen. Smart Layout: We automatically hide the sidebar to create dedicated space for your notes, keeping the video perfectly visible. Auto-Save: Your notes are saved to your local storage instantly. Close the tab? Your notes are still there when you come back. ⏱️ 3. One-Click Timestamps Reviewing a long lecture? Click the "+ Time" button to instantly insert the current video time (e.g., [04:20]) into your notes. Perfect for marking important concepts or confusing sections to review later. 📥 4.
