YT Link Preview is a free Chrome add-on developed by Ricardo Antunes. It falls under the category of Browsers and is specifically listed in the Add-ons & Tools subcategory. This handy extension allows users to play YouTube videos directly from any web page without having to navigate away.

With YT Link Preview, a small icon is added to every link to a YouTube video. By hovering over this icon, a video player appears along with detailed information about the video, including its title, description, duration, publishing date, statistics, channel, category, and more. Users can even like or dislike the video from this preview window.

The preview window is customizable and can be dragged and resized to suit the user's preferences. To use YT Link Preview, users must sign in with their YouTube account using Google's authentication page. It's important to note that this extension does not store any personal information and its access to the user's YouTube account can be revoked at any time.
