YouTube's autoplay feature leads to situations where a video you have already watched is played next. Such loops of watching the same two videos over and over again (worst case) are not necessarily desirable. This is why this browser extension can choose a different autoplay video to be played next (foreground tabs) or redirect the site if the video has already been watched (background tabs). For this purpose, a URL history is recorded by the extension. The add-on allows for customization options, e.g., if playlists shall be considered as video candidates, under which circumstances the URL history shall be cleared and how large the time intervals for site analysis shall be.
Since v1.1, whitelists / blacklists, maximum video lengths and recommendation numbers are supported. Users can display the URL history to the extension's background page. The permissions are less demanding.

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
