Frequently Asked Questions

How does this calculator work?

This calculator uses the YouTube Data API to fetch information about each video in the playlist and sum up their durations to give you the total length of the playlist.

Why do I need this?

Knowing the total length of a playlist can help you plan your viewing time, especially for educational content, music compilations, or binge-watching sessions.

Is this calculator accurate?

The accuracy depends on the data provided by YouTube's API. It should be fairly accurate, but there might be slight discrepancies due to rounding or API limitations.
