  • Background play — keep listening with your screen off or while using other apps
  • Picture-in-Picture (PiP) on mobile and desktop
  • Cast to smart TVs using YouTube TV codes
  • Video downloads for offline viewing
  • Audio-only mode to save data
  • Sleep timer
  • Clickbait thumbnail removal
  • Restored dislike counts
  • YouTube Shorts player
  • Chrome extension to open any YouTube video on SkipVids with one click
  • Subscription sync, watch history, and saved playlists with a free account

SkipVids is free to use with a freemium model, but offers Premium accounts which unlock unlimited viewing, downloads, and saved data across devices.
