Use this interactive demo to learn how to disable the "Are You Still Watching" prompt on YouTube.

Quick summary

The YouTube NonStop Chrome extension automatically dismisses the "Are You Still Watching" prompt, letting videos play uninterrupted without any manual input. Installing it takes under a minute via the Chrome Web Store and requires no configuration after setup.


Steps

  1. Go to chromewebstore.google.com, search for YouTube NonStop, and click the extension listing.
  2. Click Add to Chrome to begin installing the extension.
  3. When the confirmation dialog appears, click Add extension to confirm the installation.
  4. Go to youtube.com and start a video for at least an hour to verify the prompt no longer appears.
  5. Confirm the video plays uninterrupted with no manual input required every 30 minutes.

📌 Why this matters

The "Are You Still Watching" prompt on YouTube interrupts long viewing sessions, forcing users to manually confirm playback every 30 minutes. The YouTube NonStop Chrome extension solves this by automatically dismissing the prompt, enabling truly uninterrupted video playback. This is especially valuable for users streaming long-form content, lectures, or background music. Installing the extension takes under a minute and permanently eliminates the interruption with zero ongoing effort.
