ShareYT

A free, cross-platform browser extension that allows you to easily share and react to YouTube videos with your friends.

ShareYT transforms YouTube into a social experience. Stop copying and pasting links into messaging apps. Make YouTube video sharing as seamless as sharing on platforms like Instagram or TikTok! ShareYT adds a simple "Share" button directly into the YouTube video player, allowing you to instantly send videos to your friends without ever leaving the page. See what your friends are watching with a dedicated "Friends Feed" right on your YouTube homepage. Built for privacy and speed, ShareYT is the ultimate companion for YouTube power users who love sharing and discussing content with their friends. 🚀 Key Features Integrated Share Button: A sleek "SHARE" button is added directly to the YouTube player controls. Share the current video with one click and optionally add your reaction as well. Friends Feed on Homepage: Discover videos your friends have shared with you in a custom row on your YouTube homepage. It's a curated list of recommendations! Instant Reactions: Add a custom message or reaction when you share a video. Interactive Dashboard: Manage your friend list, view your shared history, and see incoming requests in a clean, dedicated dashboard. Smart Notifications: Get notified instantly when a friend shares a video with you. Privacy-First Design: Your data is secure. We use a zero-trust architecture with restricted permissions. We don't track your watch history or sell your data. 🛠️ How It Works Install & Sign In: Add ShareYT to your browser, visit YouTube, and sign in with your Google account.

Click the new SHARE button in the player control bar to send it to a friend.

No Unnecessary Data: We only store what's needed for sharing (user ID, friendship status, and shared video IDs). Secure Backend: Powered by Google Firebase with strict security rules. Open Source: The code is available for audit.
