The tool offers features such as a cinema mode, dynamic ambient lighting that matches the video content, and a focus mode to help users concentrate on the video. It is optimized for performance and aims to use minimal system resources.
ClearTube is available in two versions: a free version and a Pro version. 99 €, unlocks additional features like Cinema Mode, Cinema Audio with improved sound quality, dynamic ambient lighting, automatic theater mode for every video, smooth light transitions, and automatic hiding of the user interface. All settings are stored exclusively on the user's device, emphasizing local data storage and privacy. The extension does not track YouTube behavior and only saves data necessary for the user account and Pro license.
Currently, ClearTube can be installed for Firefox, with a Chrome version in preparation. The Firefox version has been officially reviewed and published in the Mozilla Add-on Store. The tool targets users who seek a cleaner, more immersive YouTube experience, with future plans to introduce more focus modes and customizable themes based on community feedback.
