About this extension
Do you have a favourite YouTube channel, but don't know what to watch? This extension is for you!
The "Random YouTube Video" extension adds a "Shuffle" button to YouTube channel, video and shorts pages, which will play a truly random video from the current channel. Use the extension's popup to customize your experience even further!
Level up your YouTube experience with these features:
✔ A new shuffle button that uses the native look and feel of YouTube - including dark mode - so it fits right in with the YouTube interface you're used to!
✔ Utilize a wide range of options to individualize your experience, such as ignoring shorts, only shuffling from the most recent videos or shuffling multiple videos into a playlist!
✔ A smart, 100% anonymous backend technology ensures that popular channels shuffle as fast as possible, no matter how many video uploads they have!
✔ ...and much more!

"Excellent extension with a great simple UI. It has features I didn't know I wanted like auto playlists, which are great. Deserves more love, should be an official feature." - ★★★★★
- Nick Saris
"I think this is one of the best ideas I've ever seen, and it works! It shuffles pretty fast even on big channels." - ★★★★★

- Firefox: If not already granted, the extension will now ask for permissions whenever the popup is opened.
