This post explains ways to watch YouTube videos without visiting YouTube.

Why Watch YouTube without Visiting YouTube?

One thing many agree on is the fact that you can get easily distracted on YouTube.

You may visit YouTube looking for a particular video, but you’re presented with dozens of other videos which grab attention,

Then there are the suggested videos and comments to distract you further.

YouTube does an excellent job of keeping visitors on its platform as long as possible.

So, if you find yourself being distracted and feel guilty about wasting your time, you may want to watch YouTube videos without visiting YouTube.

YouTube Blocked

YouTube may be blocked in your region or if you’re in an educational institution. So, you may be looking for a way to watch videos on the platform.

Here are some websites that allow you to play YouTube videos without visiting YouTube.

SafeShare TV

If you want to avoid ‘inappropriate content’ on YouTube, consider using Safeshare. Inappropriate content means content unsuitable for children 13 years and below.

SafeShare provides a video-viewing environment free of distractions and clutter. As such it does away with related videos and comments, ad prerolls and annotations, among others.

The idea is to create a safe version of a YouTube or Vimeo video.

You get to trim the videos to show the parts you want to share with someone.

This feature is useful for a teacher or parent to share only a certain part of a video with his or her students or children. It saves time for both parties.

A notable feature is the ability to edit video titles and descriptions. You can also generate unique links which you can share with others.

The free version of Safeshare TV allows the creation of up to 20 Safeview videos.

Check out SafeShare TV.

Non-Website Options

There are other websites through which you can watch YouTube videos.

But then, they, too have other videos to distract you. So, if you easily fall prey to distractions when visiting video-sharing sites, there’s a solution for you.

The solution is not to visit websites to watch YouTube videos.

Instead, you watch videos through a media player.

And that media player is the VLC Media Player. You probably have it installed on your computer.
