Review Summary

Users praise TimeTags for YouTube as a highly useful and time-saving tool for creating and managing video timestamps, helping especially in video editing and note-taking. It has a simple interface and features like importing/exporting timestamps. However, users commonly report issues with the positioning of the time tag window obstructing video or chat, conflicts with keyboard shortcuts, lack of window customization (pop-out/close options), and occasional malfunction after updates. Suggestions include better shortcut management, window flexibility, and control over automatic loading of timestamps from comments.

Pros

  • Enables easy creation and collection of timestamped comments and notes on YouTube videos.
  • Saves significant time for video editing and note-taking during livestreams and regular videos.
  • Supports importing and exporting timestamps, facilitating sharing and archival.
  • Simple and effective interface appreciated by users.
  • Keeps time tags persistent even after page reloads.

Cons

  • Lacks flexibility in positioning the timestamp window, which can interfere with video viewing and chat during livestreams.
  • Keyboard shortcuts interfere with default browser or YouTube shortcuts, and remapping options are desired.
  • The extension does not work reliably for some users as of mid-2023, suggesting possible compatibility issues.
  • Absence of a close or pop-out option for the time tag window reduces usability.
  • Automatic loading of timestamps from comments might be overwhelming; an option to disable this feature is requested.
