Hi everyone 👋

Have you ever found yourself wanting to play YouTube videos at 3x because the people were talking too slowly even at 2x? Or maybe you wanted to play the 3-minute long reel that your friend sent you at 2x on Instagram Web but found out there is no way to do that? That was exactly me a few months ago, when I decided that it was time I rolled my sleeves up and created an extension that would address that.

You might ask — aren't there any similar extensions already? There are; in fact, there is a lot to pick from and the market is saturated with such extensions. However, none of these extensions seemed to meet all of my personal needs. Some of them only featured a pop-up view, which I find to be a very user-hostile experience for this particular kind of extension because you have to constantly jump between the page and the browser toolbar. Others also featured on-page controls but I didn't like their aesthetics on the page, and/or their UX. That is why I committed to creating a browser extension that would meet all my functional and aesthetic needs, and I am happy to share it with you now.

I spent months on development, refining every feature and catching lots edge cases, and now I think I've reached a state where I feel ready to share it with you. Speed Changer has the following features:

🚀 CONTROL WITHOUT LIMITS — Bypass platform limitations and play media content up to 16x faster or slower.
▶️ CHANGE THE SPEED DIRECTLY FROM THE PAGE — No need to bounce between the page and the browser toolbar anymore — the on-page floating buttons make changing the speed a breeze.
🍃 FRIENDLY AND FAMILIAR EXPERIENCE — All the familiar gestures from the apps you use brought to your browser — press and hold the floating buttons to play at 2x, pull away while pressing to lock the speed.
💬 TRADITIONAL POP-UP INTERFACE — Not a fan of the on-page floating buttons? Just turn them off and use the more traditional pop-up experience provided by the extension.
⌨️ KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS — Use your keyboard to quickly change the playback speed — press Alt/⌥+2 to play at 2x, Alt/⌥+3 to play at 3x etc., or use your own shortcuts.
🎵 AUDIO CONTENT SUPPORT — Listen to your favorite podcasts at your desired speed, or create sped-up versions of your favorite songs on the spot.
🖤 DARK MODE FRIENDLY — The extension adapts to the color scheme of your browser so you will not strain your eyes at nighttime.
🔧 HIGHLY CUSTOMIZABLE — Make yourself at home with the extension by adjusting the wide range of configuration options to your preferences
