What Pro adds
Pick what to watch next, not only what to clear out.
Tell it how much time you have and it builds a running order from videos you already saved, with a line on why each one was picked. Start from your recent watches, videos you didn't finish, your subscriptions or your oldest saves. Play it straight through, or save it as a playlist.
Run when you open YouTube. They never delete a video you could still watch: they move it to an archive playlist you own.
Anything you watched past 95% moves to the archive. Near-zero regret, so it runs first and earns your trust for the rest.
Private, deleted and unavailable videos are cleared out. They cannot be moved, so this one deletes, after a preview.
Once a month, the oldest tenth of your Watch Later moves to the archive. Set the percentage yourself. The dashboard tells you the size your list settles at.
Mark a video "keep forever" and nothing removes it — not a rule, not a bulk delete you ran yourself. A Move copies it instead. The one you saved for a trip stays saved.
For the bulk actions you already have.
Remove as many hand-picked videos as you like, any time. A free install made from version 2.5.0 on removes up to 1,000 every 30 days; emptying a whole list is free for everyone.
Every bulk delete, move, unlike or rule shows the exact list first. Untick anything, then go.
What you deleted from Watch Later or a playlist is kept on this device for 90 days. Restore one video or a whole batch, back into the playlist it came from.
Get back to a view in one click, find any channel fast, and be heard first.
Name a filter combination, say unwatched, over 20 minutes, from three channels, and open it in one click.
Your feature requests and bug reports are read first and weigh most in what gets built next. Support emails from subscribers go to the front of the queue.

Questions
Yes, for installs made from version 2.5.0 on. A new install removes up to 1,000 hand-picked videos every 30 days for free, and the 30 days start with the first one it removes. Emptying a whole list, deleting one video from its menu, removing likes and copying never count. Every install from before 2.5.0 keeps unlimited removals. Everything else stays in the free version: search, filters, sorting, bulk delete, reorder, move, every playlist you own, tags, transcripts, export. Pro has no limit.
TidyWL works with YouTube's web endpoints rather than an official API, and YouTube can change them. Most changes are fixed within hours through a remote configuration; some need an extension update. If a Pro feature is not restored within 30 days, yearly subscribers can ask for the unused part back, and monthly subscribers can cancel. The full rule is in the terms of sale.
Paddle, our merchant of record. Paddle takes the payment in your currency, adds any tax that applies where you live, sends the receipt and processes refunds. We never see your card number.
Any time, from the link in your receipt or by emailing [email protected]. Pro keeps working until the end of the period you paid for, then the extension goes back to free. Nothing in your browser is deleted.
Every charge, first payment or renewal, can be refunded in full within 14 days — no questions, no conditions, no exceptions. One email. After that, cancel any time and Pro runs to the end of the period you paid for. The refund policy has the rest.
The browsers and devices you use yourself. The exact limit is shown when you activate your key, and you can deactivate a device you no longer use.
No. Rules, undo, pin, the Lineup and saved views all run in your browser, like the rest of the extension. The Lineup reads your YouTube watch history and subscriptions to rank what to suggest, and both stay on your device. The only new thing tidywl.com stores is your licence key and its activation record, so it can check the subscription is live. We take your privacy seriously and keep the list of what leaves your browser short and public. If we later add a removal history kept with your subscription, so you can restore from another device, it will be off unless you turn it on, and the privacy policy will say exactly what it stores.
Yes. Feature requests and bug reports from Pro subscribers are read first and weigh most when deciding what to build next, and support emails from subscribers are answered first. It is a promise to listen first, not to build everything. Email [email protected] from the address you used at checkout so we can tell.
