TubeZen
Take control of YouTube
TubeZen turns YouTube into a purposeful, distraction-free platform. Block the algorithmic feed, set daily viewing limits, filter out unsafe content, and lock your settings with a PIN. 100% offline and private—your data never leaves your device.
Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I’m Will, the maker of TubeZen.
We all know the feeling: you go to YouTube to watch a 5-minute educational video, and an hour later, you’re deep into an endless loop of Shorts and recommended feeds. Or, if you’re a parent, you’re constantly worried about what inappropriate content might slip past the algorithm.
I built TubeZen to fix this. It’s an extension designed to give you your focus and peace of mind back.
Here is what TubeZen can do:
🛑 Kill Distractions: Hide the homepage feed, recommendations, comments, and the sidebar. We even lock Shorts to stop the infinite scroll.
⏱️ Manage Time: Set daily viewing limits. Once the timer hits zero, YouTube is blocked for the rest of the day.
🛡️ Filter Content: Block specific keywords, channels, or entire categories (like Violence or Gambling) with one click.
🔒 Stay Secure: Lock your rules behind a 4-digit PIN (perfect for parental control).
🕵️ 100% Private: No accounts. No servers. No telemetry. Your data stays strictly on your device.
Whether you're trying to stay productive during the workday or creating a safe viewing environment for your kids, TubeZen hands the control back to you.
I’d absolutely love to hear your thoughts. What’s your biggest YouTube distraction, and what feature should I add to TubeZen next? Let me know in the comments! 👇
