This project reimagines YouTube's watch and subscribe functionality by empowering users with note-taking and highlighting.
Users can take private notes while saving a video so they can quickly refer to the purpose of saving that video when they look back. They can also highlight a period of a video and leave a note along the timeline as the key parts when revisiting.
With these two new features, users can better categorize and manage their saved videos, especially for educational or informational videos that are often longer in duration.
