• Daily Watch Limit — Set a maximum amount of time to watch YouTube videos each day.
• Daily Shorts Limit — Set a separate daily limit for YouTube Shorts.
• Daily Video Limit — Limit the number of videos you can watch per day.

• Time Blocks — Block video watching during selected times of day, such as study or work hours.
• Channel Limits — Limit daily watch time for specific YouTube channels.
• Genre Limits — Spend less time in video categories that tend to distract you.

📵 Make YouTube less distracting
YouTube is designed to keep you watching. Obserra lets you create a calmer, more focused viewing experience by hiding the features that lead to “just one more video.”
• Hide YouTube Shorts from the homepage
• Disable YouTube Shorts completely
• Hide recommended videos from the homepage
• Limit the number of homepage recommendations
• Hide sidebar recommendations while watching videos
• Hide end-of-video suggestions
• Hide or limit video comments
• Hide breaking-news sections and YouTube Playables
• Apply a black-and-white filter to make YouTube feel less stimulating

Keep the parts of YouTube that are useful to you. Hide the parts that pull you into endless scrolling.

📊 Understand your YouTube habits
Obserra includes insights to help you see how you spend time on YouTube and YouTube Shorts.

See your watch time, review trends over time, and use that information to make better decisions about how you watch. Instead of guessing where the time went, you can see the patterns and make meaningful changes.
