YouTube UI Toggle

Switch between YouTube's default UI and the classic watch layout using targeted experiment overrides.

Prefer YouTube’s older watch-page layout? YouTube UI Toggle lets you request the classic layout with one simple switch. • Turn “Enable old YouTube layout” on to apply the classic-layout overrides. • Turn it off to use YouTube’s default interface. • Your preference is saved locally. • Refresh YouTube after changing the setting. Comments suddenly beside the video? Description buried in a panel? Missing the old theater mode? YouTube UI Toggle helps undo the new desktop watch-page layout with one simple switch. Bring back the layout you prefer: • Comments below the video instead of in the new side panel. • The familiar placement of descriptions and recommended videos. • Classic theater mode for a wider view without going fullscreen. No custom filters to paste or scripts to configure. Install the extension, enable “Enable old YouTube layout,” and refresh YouTube. Want to use YouTube’s new layout again? Turn the toggle off and refresh. Your preference is saved automatically. PRIVACY Your setting stays on your device. No analytics, tracking, or personal data collection. The extension only runs on YouTube.
