Boring
Make video boring again.
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Boring is a calm, chronological, finite inbox of new videos from the creators you follow.
No algorithm. No autoplay. No infinite feed. Just what you asked for, newest first, and when you reach the end, you're done.
AN INBOX, NOT A FEED
Every new video from the channels and feeds you follow lands in your inbox. Swipe each one to watch later, mark it seen, archive it or let it go. The list ends.
NOTHING RECOMMENDED
Boring shows you what you asked for and nothing else. No suggestions, no trending, no next video starting on its own.
YOUTUBE AND ANY FEED
Follow a YouTube channel by pasting its link, its @handle or a link to any of its videos. Follow any RSS or Atom feed too.
SHORTS STAY OUT OF THE WAY
Shorts and livestreams are hidden until you ask for them. Spotting a Short is a guess, so you can correct it with a long press.
WATCH LATER, PROPERLY
Queue videos for later and they wait for you, oldest first. Filter by favourite creators and sort by newest, oldest, shortest or creator.
A QUIET PLAYER
Videos play in YouTube's own player with Boring's simple controls: play, pause, skip 10 seconds and playback speed. No end screens, no suggestions. One tap hands a video to the YouTube app if you'd rather watch there.
SUPER BORING MODE
On devices with Apple Intelligence, Super Boring mode hides titles and thumbnails and shows a short summary of each video instead, made on your device.
YOURS, ON YOUR DEVICES
No account and no server of ours. Your follows and what you've watched sync through your own private iCloud. Boring doesn't track you, show ads or sell anything.
