Ever dozed off while watching YouTube, only to wake up hours later with a history full of random videos? If so,YouTube’s new sleep timer feature might be your saving grace. But hold on – there are a few catches.
First, it’s exclusive to YouTube Premium subscribers. Second, it’s an experimental feature, so there’s no guarantee it’ll stick around. And third, the testing phase ends on September 2nd. After that, it’s anyone’s guess whether it’ll become a permanent YouTube fixture or vanish into the digital abyss.
If you’re a Premium user and want to give it a whirl, head over to the designated page and enable the feature. Once that’s done, simply open YouTube on your phone or desktop, start playing a video, and access the settings menu to set your desired sleep timer interval. It’s that simple.
Let’s keep our fingers crossed that this isn’t just a fleeting experiment and the sleep timer becomes a permanent feature for all YouTube users to enjoy!
