Do you regularly scroll YouTube Shorts for hours? A new timer feature may help you stop.
This optional feature allows you to set daily viewing time limits for Shorts. Once you reach that limit, you’ll receive a pop-up prompting you to take a break. You can dismiss the alert if you want to continue watching, but the aim is to remind you how long you’ve been mindlessly scrolling.
