## What is Shorts Free?

Open YouTube for the video you meant to watch—not an endless Shorts feed.

Shorts Free is a local Safari extension that removes distracting surfaces from YouTube. No account is required, and your browsing history and viewing activity are never collected.

Free
• Hide the Shorts tab, shelves, and Shorts videos
• Redirect shared and direct Shorts links to the standard player
• Preview every removed surface with a clear animation

Pro — ¥300, one-time purchase
• Calm Browse: also hide Home recommendations
• Study: filter videos under 5 minutes
• Deep Focus: filter videos under 10 minutes, related videos, and comments
• One Video: also stop autoplay and next-video prompts

There is no subscription or recurring charge. Restore Purchase is included.

Works in Safari only and cannot change the official YouTube app. YouTube and the YouTube logo are trademarks of Google LLC. This app is not affiliated with or endorsed by Google LLC.
