A browser extension that prevents YouTube from automatically translating video titles, descriptions, thumbnails, subtitles, and audio tracks, keeping content in its original language. It works across Firefox, Chrome, Edge, Safari, and mobile browsers, with optional YouTube Data API integration for reliable original metadata.

Use cases

  • stop youtube from translating video titles
  • watch videos with original audio track instead of auto-dubbing
  • prevent youtube description auto-translation
  • disable auto-generated subtitles on youtube
  • restore original youtube thumbnails
  • keep youtube content in original language as a polyglot

When to choose

  • you understand the video's original language and hate forced translations or synthetic dubbing
  • you want original titles, descriptions, thumbnails, and audio tracks on YouTube
  • you need a cross-browser solution including Firefox for Android and Safari

When to avoid

  • you rely on translated titles or auto-dubbing to consume foreign-language content
  • you want a translation tool rather than a translation blocker
  • you need Safari App Store distribution - it must be self-built
