Shorts Flow: Auto-Scroll for YouTube Shorts von CPT Dawn

Shorts Flow makes YouTube's desktop Shorts feed lean-back. When a Short ends, the next one starts on its own, so you can cook, stretch or simply sit back without reaching for the mouse or the arrow keys.

It is built to feel like it was always there. The Auto-Scroll button sits in the Shorts action rail, styled like YouTube's own buttons, and Shorts Flow steps aside the moment you step in.

What you get:

• Auto-Scroll: moves to the next Short the moment the current one ends, at any playback speed. It stays on or off exactly as you left it.
• Waits for you: never moves on while the Short is paused, the comments or description are open, a menu is open, you're typing, or you've just scrolled yourself. The Short simply plays again.
• Quick settings in the rail: speed and more, one click from the Auto-Scroll button.
• Speed: play every Short at your favourite speed, from 0.5× to 3×, remembered across reloads.
• Shortcuts: press A for Auto-Scroll and S for Speed. Pick other keys in the toolbar popup.
• Shorts watched and Session Limit: see how many Shorts you've watched this sitting, and if you like, get a gentle nudge to take a break after a number of Shorts or minutes.
• Skip Sponsored Shorts (optional, off until you turn it on): moves straight past Sponsored Shorts in the feed. Shorts Flow does not block ads: ads shown inside a Short or elsewhere on YouTube play as usual.
• Calm when things go wrong: if the next Short can't be found, a quiet notice offers to try again. Shorts Flow never reloads the page.

Private by design: Shorts Flow collects no data. No analytics, no tracking, no account, no servers; your settings never leave your browser. It needs only the storage permission and access to youtube.com, and its source code is open on GitHub.

Accessible: every control works with the keyboard and screen readers, follows your light or dark theme, and respects reduced motion.

Works in Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi and Firefox on desktop.
