What's unique about this tool? How can you use it?

1. If you're curious about a video and its author, playlist and its creator, or channel

2. If you're curious about an entire playlist's videos or channel's videos

3. Use it as an API-explorer

   - Grabs every part available

   - Provides shareable link

4. Use it for investigative purposes and OSINT

   - Tells you what if found and what it didn't find

   - Auto-translations of language and country codes

   - Geolocation direct link to Google Maps

   - Interpretation and display of meaningful fields

   - Reverse image search thumbnails

   - Archive video and channel data that may disappear

5. Assist in finding private, deleted, and unlisted videos

   - Option to inspect videos in a channel's created playlists to find unlisted videos

   - Link to various resources with prefilled parameters: Archive.org, Filmot, SocialBlade, and Google

   - Queries Filmot to see if it has data for private and deleted videos

6. Export and import

   - Save data as a zip

   - Import zip to view in app again later
