YouTube Full Title For Videos

This extension shows the headlines of the video entirely without hiding them partially, as by default.

The YouTube Full Title For Videos Chrome extension enhances your YouTube browsing experience by displaying complete video titles without the usual truncation. Unlike the default behavior, where long titles are partially hidden and require hovering to read fully, this extension applies a simple CSS tweak that adjusts the title height, revealing the full headline immediately.

With no JavaScript involved, this lightweight extension ensures quick loading and smooth performance. It simplifies video navigation on YouTube.com by making it easier to identify videos through their entire titles at a glance.

User reviews

Users praise the extension for restoring full video titles on YouTube, reducing the annoyance of truncated titles, and consider it simple, lightweight, and reliable over several years. However, multiple reviews mention recent functionality issues, including intermittent failures especially on Brave browser and problems with YouTube Shorts titles. The extension hasn't been updated since 2021, which affects its support for newer YouTube features. Users appreciate it but hope for updates to fix issues and to extend support to other truncated elements like channel names.

Cons

  • Does not fully support YouTube Shorts titles, which still show shortened names.
  • Lack of recent updates since 2021, leading to some compatibility issues.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
