Link to an exact moment on YouTube

Paste a YouTube URL and enter a time such as 2:35 or 1h2m3s. The result starts playback at that moment.

Share the useful moment, not the whole runtime

A timestamped link removes the “skip to 18 minutes” instruction from a message. It is useful for citing a source, sending a tutorial step, referencing a quote, or bookmarking the exact moment you want to revisit.

Keep the surrounding context

Pair the timestamp with the YouTube transcript viewer when you need searchable text, or download the video’s cover with the thumbnail downloader.

Frequently asked questions

What time formats can I enter?

Use seconds, M:SS, H:MM:SS, or a compact value such as 1h2m3s. The generated link stores the final time in seconds.

Does the link work on mobile?

Yes. Standard YouTube apps and browsers understand the t parameter and open the video near that playback position.

Does this upload or open the video?

No. The tool only extracts the public video ID and builds a new URL locally.
