A Log button dropped right next to Subscribe on every YouTube watch page, and a compact rating-and-review popup behind the toolbar icon. Half-stars, reviews, your watchlist — everything you'd open Tubeboxd for, without context-switching.

  1. 01

    Download the extension

    A 27 KB .zip. Same code that's in the repo under extension/.

    Download tubeboxd-extension.zip

    Then unzip it somewhere you'll remember (Desktop is fine).

  2. 02

    Open Chrome's extensions page

    Paste this in your address bar (Chrome blocks links to it for security):

    Toggle Developer mode on, top-right.

  3. 03

    Load the unzipped folder

    Drag the unzipped tubeboxd-extension folder onto the extensions page, or click Load unpacked and pick it.

  4. 04

Why isn't this a one-click install?

Chrome removed inline installs in 2018, and as of 2019 it blocks extensions side-loaded outside the Web Store unless Developer mode is on. The only proper one-click path is publishing to the Chrome Web Store — that's a one-time review + $5 dev account fee. Until then, Load Unpacked from a downloaded .zip is the friendliest path we can ship. Same code, same security model.
