Collect video links from your YouTube bell. Choose weeks and days, copy clean URLs, and view saved notifications in a tab. Turn your YouTube bell notifications into a clean, copyable list of video links. YouTube Bell Link Collector helps you review the notifications YouTube makes available, collect their video destinations, and save the results for later. Choose a range in weeks and days, control how long collection runs, and copy or download the links without opening each video individually. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Choose a range such as 4 weeks and 3 days, or just 3 days. • Set a run-time limit, or enter 0 for unlimited time. • Adjust the scrolling delay and how long to wait when loading stops progressing. • Start a fresh collection, stop it, or continue with the results already saved. • View one clean URL per video, with duplicate video links removed. • Copy the displayed links or download them as a plain-text file. • Download a detailed report containing notification text, displayed ages and video URLs. • Open a separate tab showing collected notifications with clickable video links. CLEAR FILTERS Choose between all found videos, videos within your selected range, older videos, and dates needing review. Changing your weeks-and-days range also filters results you have already collected. YouTube often displays rounded ages such as “1 month ago”. The extension keeps unknown dates and labels that overlap your cutoff in a review group instead of pretending they are exact timestamps. All found video links includes these results. GET STARTED 1. Open desktop YouTube and sign in to your account. 2. Click the extension icon to open its controls. 3. Open the YouTube bell notification list and keep it open. 4. Choose your range and timing settings, then click Start fresh. 5. Select a filter and use Copy displayed links or Download .txt. Use Open notifications in a tab for the separate notification view. That tab displays the saved collection and updates as more results arrive. The original YouTube tab and bell must stay open while older notifications load. LOCAL PROCESSING Collection starts when you choose Start fresh or Continue. Notification text, dates, identifiers, video URLs, settings and basic collection diagnostics are stored locally in your Chrome profile. The extension does not upload this data, use analytics, display advertising or load remote executable code. Copying and downloading only happen when you choose those actions. Access uses Chrome’s activeTab permission when you click the extension. It does not request ongoing access to every website. Clear saved results removes the collection for the current source tab. Removing the extension clears its local extension storage; downloaded files and clipboard copies are managed separately by you. PLEASE KNOW • The extension can only collect notifications YouTube still makes available. It cannot guarantee a complete history or a particular number of weeks. • Use English YouTube for date filtering. Unrecognised dates remain available in the review and all-results views. • Shorts and live-video destinations are normalised to standard video URLs. Community posts and channel pages do not become video links, although their notification text can appear in the saved view. • Keep your computer awake. Chrome may slow background tabs. Refreshing or navigating the source YouTube page stops its collector. • Results are saved per source tab. Export them before closing that tab or restarting Chrome because tab identifiers can change. • YouTube’s interface can change and may require extension updates. If scrolling stalls, use Continue or try scrolling the source bell manually. • Opening the bell may mark notifications as seen through YouTube’s own behaviour. This is an independent extension.
