YouTube Shorts Limiter

YouTube Shorts Limiter is an extension designed to help you regain control over your time by limiting the excessive watching of YouTube Shorts on Google Chrome.

🌟 Features
- Time Quota System: Set a maximum viewing time (e.g., 30 minutes) within a specific sliding window (e.g., every 2 hours).
- Intelligent Tracking: The timer only runs when you are actively watching a YouTube Short.

Visual Alerts & Notifications:
- A non-intrusive notification appears when you have consumed 50% of your allowed time.
- An additional alert when only 5 minutes remain.
- Alerts can be disabled in the settings.
- A full-screen overlay blocks access to Shorts once the limit is reached, showing a countdown until your next quota.
- Blocking Schedules: Ability to completely disable access to Shorts during specific time slots and days of the week.
- Browser Notifications: Receive a system notification when your quota is renewed and Shorts are available again.
- Icon Badge: A red badge (●) appears on the extension icon when access is currently blocked.
- No Silent Resume: when a quota renews or a blocking schedule ends, any Short that was open stays paused in every open tab — playback never restarts on its own, so watching again is always a deliberate action.
- Browser Compatibility: Fully compatible with Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox.
- Dynamic Tab Titles: The YouTube tab title changes to indicate when the limit has been reached.

Detailed Statistics:
- Track your consumption for Today, This Week, This Month, and This Year.
- Interactive bar charts for each period (hourly view for today, daily for week/month, monthly for year).
- Data retention for up to 1 year.

Privacy Focused:
- All data is stored locally in your browser.
- No collection, transmission, or sale of personal data.
- No tracking of video titles, URLs, or browsing history.

Modern Interface:
- Tabbed popup for easy navigation (Status, Statistics, Settings, Privacy).

- Multilingual support.

🌍 Supported Languages
- English 🇺🇸
- French (Français) 🇫🇷

⚙ How it works
- Sliding Window: If you set a limit of 30 minutes for a 2-hour period, the extension tracks your viewing within that window. The window starts when you begin watching your first Short.
- Daily Total: In addition to the quota, you can see your total viewing time for the current day, which resets automatically at midnight.
- Schedules: You can add multiple blocking ranges (e.g., 9:00 to 17:00) and select specific days of the week to enforce focus periods.
- Weekly/Monthly/Yearly Stats: Statistics are aggregated from your daily viewing history.
