After updating

Wait for the update to finish, then reload your YouTube tabs. If the old version is still running, quit and reopen the browser.

You don’t need to uninstall the extension. Updating it in place keeps your settings and locally saved data.

Still seeing the old version?

Updates may reach each browser’s store at different times. A manual check can only install a version the store has made available to you. If it isn’t offered yet, try again later.
