Description

Youtube Playlist Reverser is a powerful Chrome extension designed for YouTube users who want more control over their playlist viewing experience. With just one click, this extension allows you to reverse the order of videos in your YouTube playlists. Say goodbye to scrolling all the way to the bottom to watch the latest videos - now you can easily start from the most recent ones! NOTE: If you have any suggestions, please contact the developer derek39576@gmail.com , thanks! UPDATE(v0.0.4): Fix the bug about "the playback order was not reversed after reversing the list". UPDATE(v0.0.3): Fix the bug about "when playlist goes to the next video automatically, the order is set back to normal". UPDATE(v0.0.2): Fix the display effect of the 'R' button in dark mode.

kinda a useless extension with only limited use cases. So i got this extension this is would reverse the playlist (which some extensions do) but all it does it only reverses the QUEUE. So that means you cant just simply go to a playlist and click reverse You have to go a PlayList, click PLAY ALL which takes you to a queue and click the R button. This is not the worst part either, the R button ONLY reverses Top 200 videos in the QUEUE. That means your playlist has more than 200 videos this is even more useless.

Do you know the concept of a false choice? It appears as though you have a choice, but ultimately, it leads to the same outcome. This extension embodies the pure concept of a false choice. It appears as though you have the freedom to reverse the order of a playlist (because unfortunately, 99.9% of YouTubers don't know how to organize a playlist in chronological order), but soon you realize it is nothing more than a purely aesthetic change. The playlist will still automatically follow the original order, but instead of going from top to bottom, it will go from bottom to top, which is exactly the same thing. It's purely an aesthetic change and not really useful.

Didn't do the one thing it is supposed to do. At first it only made the playlist look like it was reversed and when the new "first video" was done it started the original first video instead of proceeding down the reversed list. When I tried starting with a video lower down the list, it seemed to work once. When I tried it again it went back to not playing in reverse order. After deselecting and reselecting the reverse function it then refused to jump to ANY video after the one playing was done. Then I noticed it had messed up the playlist and it looked like the list was doubled, repeating sections of videos above it, including doubling the YT notice that some videos in the list were hidden. That's when I uninstalled it. It is incredibly frustrating trying to find a playlist reverser that actually works. Youtube could easily fix this by adding back the reverse function they used to have, but they seem stubborn in never putting it back.

Not working. Visually reversing, but when it plays it's not playing backward.

Nope. Flips the order you see the playlist in, but doesn't flip the order the vids play.

It reverses the playlist in the window, but the next video is not from the playlist.

Worked for a day or 2. Still reverses playlist, but no longer auto-plays next video when playlist is reversed. "R" no longer appears on playlist.

It appears to work, but then doesn't. When you load up a playlist the icon is present. You click it, it does indeed reverse the list, however, when your video is over, and it goes to the next video, the order is set back to normal. Meaning you have to keep clicking the R icon after every video if you want a playlist to play correctly, kinda a pain.

Playlist will be in reverse order, but will not work when moving to the next video in autoplay. "R" is hard to see in dark mode.

After reversing, it doesn't automatically play the next video.

Fun extension concept and appears to be doing what it's supposed to, but I happen to have a playlist with 470 videos in it and it only reverses 200 of them. I don't know if this is a limitation imposed by YouTube or if the extension cannot handle reversing more than 200 videos. The "R" button also appears to only appear sometimes after I refresh the page, I don't entirely know what that's about.

It looks like its broken again, it flips the playlist but autoplay still goes in unflipped order. Same with hitting Shift + N to go to the next video. An update would be fantastic.
