Review of the browser extension 'UnTrap for YouTube' that can hide related videos and comments on YouTube, can be used on Android Firefox and iOS Safari and can also skip ads
In addition to the video being played, YouTube displays a variety of other elements on the screen, such as 'related videos,' 'comments,' and 'description.' I tried using the browser extension ' UnTrap for YouTube ,' which is said to be able to hide unnecessary elements on the screen.
