Access hidden settings, manage subscriptions, disable ads and other advanced features.
1. Enhancer for YouTube
One of the most popular universal extensions that adds a lot of cool features to the YouTube player. After installation, a small panel appears at the very bottom of the window with buttons for hiding ads, switching to the "Cinema" or "Picture in Picture" modes. There are other useful tricks like amplifying the sound, changing the speed, or looping a section of the video. In addition, a lot of hot keys are available for calling the specified functions.
2. Magic Actions
Another multifunctional plugin, very similar to the previous one. Magic Actions also adds a panel of auxiliary actions to the player, including volume control by scrolling, forced switching on of a given quality, speed control. Magic Actions also allows you to fine-tune the behavior of YouTube, starting from the theme of the design and ending with bypassing regional locks.
3. Improve YouTube
A powerful extension for Chrome that allows you to activate hidden YouTube settings, completely change the layout and interface elements, as well as use shortcuts for various actions. The options are incredible, so they are categorized and customizable from a convenient menu. Interesting features include ad blocking with a whitelist for your favorite channels, a night mode with a blue filter and a mini player.
4. Floating Player
A handy plugin for Chrome that allows you to watch videos in a separate mini-player. Unlike the standard YouTube picture-in-picture feature, this player is not tied to a tab or even a window - it is displayed on all desktops on top of other windows. You can resize and move it to any area of the screen. Bonus: This works with videos on many other popular platforms, including Facebook, Twitch, and Netflix.
5. Adblock for Youtube
A useful extension that will remove ad inserts from videos. It will be useful if your standard blocker in the browser for some reason does not hide ads or does not completely. All you need to do is turn on the two toggle switches in the menu.

A useful plugin that allows you to turn any video into a podcast.
