## 🔧 Installation
1. Install a userscript manager such as [Tampermonkey](https://www.tampermonkey.net/) or [Violentmonkey](https://violentmonkey.github.io/).
2. Click the **Install** badge below to add the script directly to your userscript manager:
[](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cansi22/watch-later-quick-remove/main/watch-later-quick-remove.user.js)
*If the badge doesn’t work, manually copy the script by clicking [here](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cansi22/watch-later-quick-remove/main/watch-later-quick-remove.user.js).*
3. In your userscript manager, click **“+ Add a new script”**.
4. Paste the script and save.
5. Navigate to your **Watch Later** playlist:
```
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=WL
```
6. Look for the **red 🗑️ icon** next to each video—click to remove instantly.

## 🚀 Usage
* **Remove a video**: Click the 🗑️ button next to any entry in your “Watch Later” playlist.
* **No extra menus**: The script triggers YouTube’s internal delete action without opening context menus.
* **Instant feedback**: The video element is removed from the page immediately after deletion.
