Profanity Filter for YouTube

Watch YouTube without the swearing.

A free Chrome extension that mutes swear words automatically, just for the moment they're said, while the rest of the video plays normally.

Add to Chrome Free on the Chrome Web Store, with optional support on Patreon

Mutes the word, not the video

It reads the captions ahead of time and mutes only the moment each swear word is said.

Videos and Shorts

Works on regular videos and Shorts, and catches YouTube's own [ __ ] masks.

You choose what's filtered

Profanity, sexual, crude, and blasphemy categories. Let words through or add your own.

Private by design

No account, no analytics, no servers. Nothing about what you watch is collected.
