Frequently asked questions
How do YouTube timestamp links work?
Adding &t={seconds}s to a youtube.com/watch URL tells the player to start at that moment. For example, &t=90s starts the video 1 minute 30 seconds in.
Do timestamp links work in YouTube comments?
Yes. Pasting a timestamped YouTube URL in a comment on the same video creates a clickable link that jumps to that moment.
Do YouTube Shorts support timestamps?
Shorts do not support the &t= parameter — they use a swipe-based format without a scrub bar. Timestamps only work on regular long-form videos.
What happens if the timestamp is beyond the video length?
YouTube ignores timestamps that exceed the video duration and plays from the beginning instead.
Is this tool free?
Yes — completely free, no sign-up, and runs entirely in your browser.
