Restores Add to Queue and Watch Later buttons that YouTube removed. YouTube quietly removed the Add to Queue and Watch Later hover buttons from video thumbnails. YT Restore brings them back — exactly where you'd expect them. **What it adds:** - A Queue button and a Watch Later button appear on every video thumbnail when you hover over it, positioned at the top-right corner - Works on the YouTube home feed, search results, sidebar recommendations, and channel pages - Shorts get a Queue button only (Watch Later is not supported by YouTube for Shorts) **New in v1.1.1** - Now you can switch off overlays when the native ones are still present in some places. Sometimes, the native overlays are available on the home screen or on a channel page, but not available on the watch page. This allows you to only see the extensions overlays where they are needed, while still retaining the ability to add shorts to your queue. - Swap the order of the overlay buttons to match YouTube's own layout more closely. - A button to rebuild the overlays from scratch and clear any internal storage without reloading the page. This is (hopefully) to help a user who reported an issue with overlay buttons appearing in places they shouldn't. I have not been able to replicate the issue yet so this is kind of a stop-gap until I'm able to. **How it works:** The buttons use YouTube's own native actions — the same ones triggered when you use the three-dot context menu. There's no custom API, no workarounds, and no risk of your queue or Watch Later list behaving differently than it would normally. **Please note** You will need to reload your YouTube tabs if you had them open when you installed this extension in order for it to work.
