Faster feeds

This update retires the separate Retube page, adds caching for faster feed revisits, and makes browsing your feeds feel more responsive.

One place for your feeds

All feed viewing and management now happens inside YouTube. Your existing feeds and channel selections stay intact.

Maintaining the separate Retube page meant building and testing many of the same features twice. Focusing on feeds inside YouTube only reduces that duplication and gives us more time to improve them.

The popup now follows YouTube’s theme automatically. You can find About Retube, Help & support, and Privacy policy in the feed menu and popup.

Faster feed revisits

Recently loaded channel results are cached for up to five minutes. Feeds that share channels reuse those results, and cached content stays available after a tab reload.

To check for new videos without waiting for the cache to expire, use Refresh feed in the feed menu.

Smoother browsing

Move between YouTube and your feeds without interrupting your browsing flow. Switching feeds feels quicker, with less waiting between selections.

Videos and Shorts appear together, with fewer flashes and less shifting as content loads. Loading placeholders keep the page steady while you wait.
