The main goal of this project is to turn off the annoying Youtube autoplay feature for ever even after clearing your browsing data!
This is not a project to be taken seriously. It was done with the express motivation of experimenting with building Chrome extensions. But if the extension helps you in any way, then that's a bonus!
You can find more information about this awesome Chrome extension @ README.md. There you will find information on how to remove the Chrome extension :( if you were fortunate enough to have it installed in the first place.
Installation notes
To install this experimental Chrome extension:
- Go to
chrome://extensionson the Chrome browser - Click on the Developer mode toggle button at the top right. This will trigger new buttons to be available at the top left of the page

- The TurnOffAutoPlay extension should now be installed
If you want to enable the extension also while in Incognito mode, then after installing the extension:
