⏮ Playito

Play a whole channel in chronological order

Every upload in one queue, oldest to newest, playing back to back.

Works with links like: youtube.com/@channel youtube.com/channel/UC… youtube.com/playlist?list=PL… youtube.com/watch?v=…&list=PL…

What this does

Paste a channel URL and you get its uploads as a single ordered queue: video one, then two, then three, until the end. You can flip the whole thing to newest first with one click, and the queue keeps your position between visits.

When you need it

Chronological order is the right order more often than YouTube assumes. Long-running series build on earlier episodes. Tutorials assume you watched the previous part. A creator's early work is the interesting part of the story if you are catching up years late. Recommendations cannot give you that — they give you whatever is popular now.

What YouTube does instead

A channel's Videos tab does offer an oldest-first sort. It reorders the thumbnails and stops there: there is no play-all on that tab, so nothing turns the sorted grid into continuous playback. Click the first video and the next one is chosen for you by recommendations. Nothing records how far into the catalogue you have got, so returning a week later means finding your place by hand.

Here the queue is fixed. It ends when the channel ends.

Questions

Is this the old &list=UL trick?

No. Appending &list=UL to a video URL used to produce a channel playlist and stopped working years ago. This builds the queue from YouTube's official API instead, so it does not depend on an undocumented URL.

Can I go newest to oldest?

Yes, one toggle reverses the queue, and the position you have saved stays valid.

Does it include Shorts and live streams?

Uploads come through as the channel published them. You can filter the queue by length, which is the practical way to keep short-form clips out of a long watch.

Do I need a browser extension?

No, which also means it works on phones, where extensions do not.

Will it remember my place across a series of hundreds of videos?

Yes, that is what it is for. Watched videos are marked and skipped, and playback resumes at the next unwatched one.

Settings

Account and sync

Without an account your progress stays in this browser only. With one it follows you to your other devices. We never ask for an e-mail or phone number – a username and password is enough, and your data is encrypted here in the browser, so the server cannot read it.

Backup and transfer

Everything (your lists, progress, custom names and settings) is stored only in your browser. Use a file to back it up or move it to another device.

Save your backup codes

Each code gets you into your account once, if you forget your password or someone changes it. Without an e-mail there is no other way back – save them now. You can still view them in account settings for two days, then they are gone for good. Your data in this browser stays either way.

    Recover your account with a backup code

    Enter your username, one unused backup code and a new password. The code is then used up and every other sign-in to the account is revoked.
