SUMMARY

TimeTags for Youtube is a tool designed to simplify the task of tagging specific moments in YouTube videos. Say goodbye to manually writing timestamps in a separate text editor. With yt-timetag, you can conveniently add and adjust tags within the YouTube interface using your keyboard. The extension provides precise and accurate timestamps, enhancing your experience when tagging longer videos.

# Usage

Browse to any YouTube video, click the icon of the extension in browser bar to activate it.

## Shortcuts
