Overview

Never let "Try again later" or "Still watching?" error interrupt your YouTube experience again!

Detailed Description Never let a "Try again later" or "Still watching?" error interrupt your YouTube experience again! YouTube Auto-Refresh is a lightweight, smart utility designed to keep your binge-watching or playlists running smoothly. Occasionally, YouTube encounters transient errors, rate limits, or "Video unavailable" glitches that require a manual page refresh to fix. This extension handles that for you automatically. 🚀 Key Features Smart Detection: Uses advanced DOM monitoring (MutationObserver) to detect error messages the instant they appear, even on dynamic page transitions. Fully Customizable Triggers: Don't just stick to the defaults. Use the built-in settings dashboard to add your own trigger phrases like "watching?", "Video unavailable", or any custom text that interrupts your flow. Case-Insensitive Matching: No need to worry about capitalization. The extension matches your triggers regardless of whether the text is uppercase or lowercase. Anti-Loop Safety: Built-in protection ensures the extension won't get stuck in an infinite refresh loop. It intelligently limits retries to 5 attempts per session, keeping your browser stable. Bulk Management: Easily manage dozens of trigger phrases with select-all, bulk delete, and "Restore Defaults" features. Privacy-First: Works entirely locally in your browser. No data is sent to external servers, and it only requests the permissions it absolutely needs to function. 🛠️ How to Use Install the extension. Left-click the extension icon in your toolbar to open the settings popup. Add any specific phrases you want to trigger a refresh. Sit back and relax—the extension will monitor YouTube in the background and only act when an error is detected. ✨ Perfect For: Users experiencing frequent "Content isn't available" errors. Leaving playlists or music running in the background. Overcoming the "Still watching?" prompt interruptions. Stop clicking refresh and let YouTube Auto-Refresh do the work for you!
