Latest version
Version 2.4
Released Aug 8, 2026 - 51.74 KBWorks with firefox 128.0 and laterFiling is faster. Priority can now be set from the card's tag picker, alongside your tags — no more closing the picker to hunt for the star on the thumbnail.
Backups are trustworthy again. Two fixes to the debug page's export: it now always reads the current queue instead of a snapshot taken when the page opened, and the backup controls work even if part of the page fails to load. A backup that is quietly incomplete is worse than no backup.Source code released under MIT License

Version 2.2
Released Aug 8, 2026 - 51.43 KBWorks with firefox 128.0 and laterPriority can now be set from the card's tag picker, alongside tags — no more leaving the picker to find the star on the thumbnail.Source code released under MIT License
Version 2.1
Released Aug 8, 2026 - 51.19 KBWorks with firefox 128.0 and laterFiling tags no longer fights you: adding a tag kept resetting each shelf's horizontal scroll, throwing you back to the start after every tag.
New No tags bucket in the sidebar — your unfiled backlog, with a live count that shrinks as you go.
Videos tagged music now live only on the Music page instead of cluttering the queue. They're still reachable from the music chip under Tags.
Restoring a JSON backup now fetches missing durations and channels automatically, instead of leaving everything in "Everything else".Source code released under MIT License
Version 2.0
Released Aug 8, 2026 - 50.56 KBWorks with firefox 128.0 and laterSave YouTube videos without ever opening them.
Hover any thumbnail on the YouTube feed and a Save button appears — the video goes into your queue and no tab is spent. The queue organises itself into shelves by length, progress and age, and plays saved videos in a single reused tab.
After updating, enable the YouTube permission: about:addons → Watch It Later → Permissions → "Access your data for sites in the youtube.com domain". Manifest V3 does not grant it automatically, and the extension cannot see YouTube pages until you do.
Changed from 1.0: automatically saving every video you open is now off by default — it duplicated deliberate saves and only fired after you had already spent the tab. You can turn it back on in Preferences.
New: tags (with a picker on the save button), priority, watch progress and a watched state, filter by channel, sort, a music page, import/export, and a debug page with a full backup.Source code released under MIT License
