Third-party profile switcher for YouTube. Protect your algorithm with separate profiles. YT Profiles brings profile-style switching to YouTube so your recommendations stay intentional. Most of us use YouTube for very different contexts: deep work, learning, music, family viewing, and short-term curiosity. Mixing all of that into one channel can distort recommendations and watch history. YT Profiles helps separate those contexts by mapping each profile to a YouTube channel under your Google account. That gives each profile its own subscriptions, watch history, and recommendation behavior. What you can do: - Create multiple profiles for different viewing modes - Quickly switch from popup, floating UI, or keyboard shortcut - See active profile context while browsing - Optionally auto-expire temporary profiles - Use a fallback history-pause mode if you prefer not to create extra channels Built for trust: - No backend services - No analytics - No telemetry - No selling user data - Data stays in Chrome storage on your device/account sync Important note: YT Profiles is an independent third-party extension and is not affiliated with or endorsed by YouTube or Google. v1.0.1 — Setup reliability update This update fixes first-run setup and channel linking against recent YouTube changes: > - Profiles now find your YouTube channels reliably on the first try. > - Creating a new channel during setup opens YouTube's channel creation > smoothly and brings you back to finish linking — no more getting stuck. > - Onboarding now asks you to sign in to YouTube first instead of starting > setup too early. > - Clearer messaging when an account has no channel yet, and when linking a > channel that's already used by another profile. > - Faster, more accurate profile/channel matching, with no cross-account mix-ups.
