This lightweight extension adds granular playback speeds from 0.25x to 16x directly into your native settings menu. Perfect for power-learners who need to watch lots of lectures or analysts who need frame-by-frame precision.

Love that this lives inside YouTube’s native controls instead of adding floating UI. That detail alone makes it feel polished and intentional.

@arslan_ali24 Exactly! We wanted to avoid the clutter of floating UIs. Glad the native integration feels amazing to you. Thanks!❤️
I’ve tried other speed-control extensions, but most feel hacky or break when YouTube updates its UI. The native menu approach feels much more future proof.

@jacksonoscar Glad you like the approach!
I like that this doesn’t try to do too much no analytics, no gimmicks, just better control. Curious if you’ve thought about keyboard shortcuts or per-channel default speeds next.

@james_wilson48 Thanks for the feedback! We wanted to keep it focused and gimmick-free. Keyboard shortcuts and per-channel defaults are actually high on our research list for future updates! ✨
I want to ask that this was built by someone who uses YouTube as a work tool, not just for entertainment. Small pain, solid solve.

@sadam_ansari2 This was definitely built for people who use YouTube as a productivity tool. Glad to see it's solving that pain point for you. ❤️
16x is unhinged and I respect it. Also pretty glad for a speed extension that doesn't make YouTube look like it got a face tattoo.. clean integration into native controls = the right call. Grabbing this

@jamespopstar Thanks, James! 🙌 keeping the UI clean was the hardest part to get right, so I really appreciate you saying that. We believe tools should enhance the experience, not cover it up. Hope the 16x speed serves you well.

16x speed? :D that's a different level. I noticed they introduced 4x. But not so sure how 16x... but... yeah, Gen Z probably needs that :D
@busmark_w_nika Not Gen Z, but regularly playing on faster speeds.... Is that this famous deterioration of our attention span and patience? :-D

@matt_rewo To be honest, I started watching some things at 2x pace, my brain is grilled :D This is what happens when you keep watching shortform.

@busmark_w_nika Thanks for the feedback! 16x is definitely geared toward power users and fast paced learnings. Glad you noticed the difference!🔥

@anukarop I think that 16x is more suitable for some very long videos on youtube, like 2 hours.

@busmark_w_nika Yeah, that's right!
