Extension Usage Instructions

                        Take notes on YouTube easily with YouTube Time Labels.

Add labels to different times of a video, and skip a video to that time by simply clicking the recorded timestamp on the extension.

Very helpful for long videos where you want to save particular sections (e.g. lecture material, a song from a compilation), or to simply keep track of your favorite videos.

Hotkey to add a timestamp:
Windows: CTRL+SHIFT+Q
MacOS: ⌘+⇧+E

For easy access to the extension, make sure to pin the extension.

Major Features:
- Add and remove videos to the extension, and give videos a custom name.
- Record and delete video timestamps to the extension
- Add custom labels / notes to timestamps.
- Open a video at a particular timestamp from the extension.
- Filter videos by title

This is a personal project I made for fun and learning. If you are interested in the source code, please visit the GitHub page: https://github.com/brianlinUM/youtube-timestamps

All YouTube browsing data (e.g. saved videos and timestamps) are handled by this extension solely for the functioning of this extension - it can not save notes about timestamps without saving the timestamp after all. This data is only stored locally on your device, and never transmitted elsewhere; I do not collect your data.
