Invideo for YouTube

YouTube is arguably one of the most important online services in today’s society, being a perfect gateway for entertainment, learning, and even efficient marketing, in short, it’s a lot of things for a lot of people.

Considering its undeniable popularity, there’s a good chance you’ve at least once come across a situation where you wanted to have the possibility to skip right to your favorite part of bulky videos. Now, it’s totally possible with the help of a tool called Invideo for YouTube.

It’s an easy-to-use and very useful, little Chrome extension that enables you to search for specific parts of YouTube videos. Before we go even further, it’s worth noting that Invideo does not work with all YouTube videos. This is because the extension relies on transcribes, which means that if a YouTube video does not have transcripts, the extension cannot help in this specific case.

Invideo for YouTube can be installed from the Chrome Web Store just as easily as most other extensions and should work right out of the box without requiring anything more than a simple page refresh on your part. Once installed, you should be able to see a green “Open Invideo” button in the lower right part of the YouTube video player.

Click the button, and you’re provided with a list of transcript entries. Then, you can find the specific part of the video you are interested in either by visually scrolling the list or using the browser’s find feature (CTRL+F).

Taking all things into account, Invideo for YouTube is a very useful and well-designed extension that is sure to improve your experience with said service. It allows you to effortlessly search for a word in a YouTube video and jump straight to that moment in the video (or, even better, in live streams).
