YouTube with SortTube: the Groups block in the sidebar and the feed of one group

Features

Everything you follow, in order

YouTube's Subscriptions feed mixes everything. SortTube lets you choose what to watch, and when.

🗂️

Groups in the sidebar

Your groups sit right above Subscriptions, with a blue dot when there's something new.

📺

A feed for every group

Only those channels, newest first. Videos, Shorts, live streams and premieres, each with its label.

⚡

Sort in minutes

All your subscriptions in one list: one click puts a channel in a group. Select many at once to go faster.

🧹

Clean up

An activity light shows which channels have gone quiet, and you can unsubscribe from several at once.

▶️

Real video previewPRO

Hover a thumbnail and watch the actual video, with sound, volume and a time bar.

✅

Your progress, from YouTube

Red progress bars and “watched” marks straight from your YouTube history. Hide what you've seen.

Organizer

Hundreds of channels? A few minutes.

Every subscription in one place, ready to sort.

  • One click adds a channel to a group, another click removes it.
  • Select several (Shift for a range) and add them all, or unsubscribe in one go.
  • Traffic light: active, slowing down or inactive, to know what to drop.
  • Drag channels onto a group, and groups to reorder them.

Your way

Settings that stay out of your way

The extension button opens a small settings panel: language, what the sidebar shows, when a video counts as watched, backups and Pro.

  • 15 languages, and video titles as YouTube shows them in yours.
  • Backups of your groups in a small file you keep.
  • Works with YouTube's light and dark themes, and with the narrow sidebar.
