YT Bookmarks drops a pin on the timestamp, not just the video. Tag it, note it, file it into a collection — find it again in two seconds flat.
History remembers that you watched something. YT Bookmarks remembers why.
A bookmark button sits right in YouTube's own action bar. Click it without pausing, without losing your place.
Not "this video" — this second of this video. Jump straight back to 14:52, every time.
Channel auto-tagging plus your own custom tags, so one video can live in three contexts at once.
Typed a half-remembered phrase from a note you left three weeks ago? That's enough — the search bar covers everything you've ever written about a video, not just its title.
Group bookmarks the way you actually think — "React Tutorials," "Recipes," "Stuff for the move" — each with its own colour.
No new tab, no separate app to remember. Open the popup, and every bookmark you've ever saved is sitting there, searchable, sortable, ready.
Install the extension once. From then on, every YouTube video you open quietly gets a 🔖 Bookmark button next to Like and Share.
Hit the button the second something's worth remembering. The timestamp, title, and channel save themselves — you don't type a thing.
Open the popup later, search or filter by tag, and click straight back to that exact second — no scrubbing through 40 minutes to find it again.
I have eleven tabs open right now because I never bookmarked the right second. This fixed that in a day.
My "watch later" list was a graveyard. Collections actually got me back into videos I'd saved months ago.
The auto-tag-by-channel thing sounds small until you've got 200 bookmarks and it's the only reason they're sorted.
Locally, on your own device, using Chrome's storage API. Nothing is sent to a server, and there's no account to create or sign into.
It works on any standard YouTube watch page. The bookmark button is injected into the page itself, so it shows up next to YouTube's own Like and Share buttons.
Yes — export everything to a single JSON file from Settings, then import that file on the new machine. Nothing is lost in the move.
The extension only activates on watch pages and does one small thing: adds a button and watches for the page to change. There's no background process running while you're not on YouTube.
Yes, fully — no premium tier, no upsell, no ads. It does one job and does it without asking for anything in return.
Add it once. Bookmark forever.
