Less scrolling. Less filler. More of the videos you actually came for. Shortless hides YouTube Shorts in Safari on iPhone and iPad. Slop patrol: an optional AI-powered bouncer that checks video metadata for strong signs of repetitive, low-value content. SHORT VIDEOS, OUT OF THE WAY Hide Shorts across the home feed, search results, channel pages, related videos and the Shorts tab. Hide Playables too, and optionally tidy away community posts. Choose which surfaces to clean up or pause everything with one tap. MEET SLOP PATROL Turn on Patrol to assess visible video titles, channels and description snippets using Jev. Enable Auto-hide to bounce strong low-value matches. Uncertain videos stay visible, and Always show lets you overrule the bouncer. Patrol evaluates metadata, not the video itself. It does not analyze pictures or audio, prove that a video was AI-generated, or hide useful content merely because it involves AI. Assessments can be wrong; you stay in control. SEE WHAT GOT BOUNCED Review recent assessments, inspect the signals behind a decision, and restore a video with Always show. Local performance details show how quickly checks are handled. A LITTLE LESS DOOMSCROLL Keep track of the Shorts you dodge with daily totals, lifetime counts and a streak. A calm, compact home screen keeps the essentials in view on iPhone and iPad. YOUR CHOICE, YOUR DATA Shorts hiding works on-device. Slop patrol is off by default and needs an internet connection when enabled. It sends visible video IDs and metadata to Shortless's hosted service and Jev for assessment. No account, API key or setup token is needed. Recent assessments and Always show overrides stay on your device. While Patrol is enabled, new ratings send the assessment metadata for automatic review to help improve future checks. Ratings do not immediately change filtering. See the privacy policy for caching and provider processing details. GET STARTED Install Shortless, enable the extension in Safari and allow it on youtube.com. The app walks you through setup. Shortless works on the website in Safari, not inside the YouTube app. One purchase. No subscription. No ads in the app. YouTube is a trademark of Google LLC.
