The most advanced YouTube parental control for Chrome, Edge and Firefox.
Most blockers only know how to say “yes” or “no.” Here, you decide exactly how much time each topic gets: 20 minutes of Minecraft, and that’s it. For parents, students and anyone who wants to take back control of YouTube.
- A precise limit per topic: 20 min of Minecraft, nothing more
- Or simply a daily time cap
- Settings protected by password
- No data collected
A precise time for every topic
Most extensions can only say "yes" or "no". This one can say "20 minutes of Minecraft, and that's it".
Give each keyword its own limit. Drag the sliders to see how it works:
Drag to adjust each limit.
Are you or your child spending too much time on YouTube?
- Shorts autoplay endlessly and quickly become addictive.
- Certain categories of videos end up taking over.
- A simple timer can't tell learning apart from entertainment.
- And above all: kids quickly find ways around limits — multiple tabs, a minimized window, videos embedded on other sites.
Built for parents — and anyone who wants to take back control
Four simple levers, combined however you like.
Daily time
A daily quota of minutes. Once reached, YouTube is blocked.
Keyword limits
A precise time for each topic: 20 min of Minecraft, and nothing else.
Password
Your settings are locked and encrypted. Only you can change them.
Sessions
Split the day into slots, with mandatory breaks in between.
What makes it different
Most extensions stop at a timer. This one goes further — and always for a reason.
Daily timer
Because a clear ceiling is sometimes all you need. One limit per day, done.
Keyword timer
Because not all screen time is equal. An hour of recorded lessons isn't an hour of Fortnite.
Mix mode
Because you often want both at once: a global ceiling, plus per-topic limits counting down in parallel.
Session mode
Because a clean break beats endless scrolling. Breaks are enforced, and YouTube stays blocked during them.
A few concrete examples
The same extension, shaped to what your family needs.
🎮 Limit Minecraft
Allow 20 minutes of Minecraft a day. The rest of YouTube keeps working.
⏱️ Stop the Shorts
Put a keyword on short formats to cut the endless scroll.
📚 Keep the educational
Let lessons and tutorials through, but cap entertainment.
🍽️ Split the day
30 minutes after homework, 30 after dinner — with a mandatory break between.
Different modes
- Timer Mode: for a daily limit or multiple sessions
- Keywords Mode: define a list of words linked to a timer, or a specific timer for each keyword
- Mix Mode: each keyword has a timer, but under the constraint of a daily timer
Why the timer is reliable

- Automatic daily reset at the time you choose.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does keyword control work?
The extension analyzes the titles and descriptions of YouTube videos and Shorts to detect your defined keywords. When a video contains a monitored keyword, viewing time is counted according to your settings.
Is the extension really free?
Yes, the extension is completely free and will remain so. You can support development via a donation if you wish.
How do I reset the password if I forget it?
Just reinstall the extension: only the password is removed. Your keywords and the times you configured are kept. You can then set a new password.
Does the extension collect data?
No, the extension respects your privacy. All data is stored locally on your browser and no information is sent to external servers.
Can I use the extension on several browsers?
Yes, you can install the extension on Edge, Chrome and Firefox. Keywords can be exported and re-imported into a new browser.
How does the daily reset work?
Time counters automatically reset at midnight (local time) by default. You can set the time manually or also perform a manual reset in the settings if necessary.
What is the difference between Timer, Keywords and Mix modes?
Timer mode limits the total time spent on YouTube. Keywords mode limits time based on the content watched. Mix mode combines both for advanced control with smart double counting.
Can I save or import my keywords?
Yes, you can export your settings in JSON format and import them with a smart merge that keeps the time already consumed.

Session mode operation
