Description

Enhance your YouTube experience with the Rewind & Fast Forward Chrome extension. This tool adds dedicated buttons for rewinding and fast-forwarding videos. Features: 1. Customizable Time Skips — Choose the skip duration for each button individually, with up to four customizable buttons. 2. Arrow Key Override — Choose whether to synchronize the Left and Right arrow keys with your configured skip durations. (Default: No override) 3. Media Key Integration — Map your keyboard's media keys (Previous/Next track) to use the same skip durations as the extension buttons. How to Access the Options Page 1. If you've pinned the extension, click the extension icon and then click "Open the options page". 2. If you haven't pinned it, click the Chrome extensions icon; you'll have two options: - Click the three dots next to "YouTube Rewind & Fast Forward Buttons" and select Options. - Click the extension name, then click "Open the options page". See the screenshots below for guidance.

You constantly need to toggle it on for it to work.

It's kind of annoying because when you try to write a comment and use the arrow keys to move the cursor left or right.. It also fastforwards/Rewinds the video. I tried unchecking the two "Should..." options but still doesn't do anything EDIT: No solution/reply was provided since the initial 11.17.2024 review. -1 star = 2/5 stars

Buttons only appear if you open the options page and then click save and close. You have to do this for every video.

Neither good nor bad. If you could adjust it to fit your needs then id be all for it. I need a 5 and 20 second adjustment.

Works great, when it works... which is about 1/3 of the time. I'll open one link and it has the buttons. Open a couple more, no buttons. Open the 4th, and it has the buttons. Completely random as to whether it will work or not. Reloading the page and/or disabling the extension has no effect. Would be 5 stars if it worked more consistently.
