A feed built for your time
Quick answer
YouTube Home is built to keep you watching. That's just the job it does. It mixes your subscriptions with whatever keeps strangers on the app, shows you the same videos as many times as it wants, and gives you a thumbnail to decide with.
What 125x is: 125x is a web app at 125x.app. You connect your YouTube subscriptions, and it gives you a feed of the latest videos from the channels you follow, each with a summary: a verdict, the 5 key takeaways, and the spoiler, plus Actionable and Lessons tabs with more tips. You read that and decide what's actually worth opening.
125x is built for your time instead. YouTube decides what you watch to maximize its watch time. 125x decides with you, to minimize yours, and shows its work in the Passed tab.

Who should stay on Home
If you mostly want to discover random new stuff, Home is good at that. 125x is for people who already follow a lot of creators, especially dating, self improvement, health, fitness, AI, and business channels, and want to actually learn from them.
Summaries
Open any video in 125x and you get a short brief instead of the player. There's a verdict (watch, skim, or skip) with the reason, 5 key takeaways, the things the video tells you to actually do, the lessons worth keeping, and the spoiler, which is the thing the title and thumbnail are teasing, just said plainly.
The verdict tells you which videos deserve your full attention and gives you the gist of the ones that don't.
Connecting your account
You sign in with Google and 125x asks for one thing, read-only access to YouTube. It can see your subscriptions and video details.
It can't post, comment, like, subscribe, or change anything on your account. Google's Third Party Data Safety team verified the app on Oct 24, 2026.
If you'd rather not connect an account at all, you don't have to. You can import your subscriptions with a bookmark from your YouTube channels page, or upload screenshots of the Subscriptions tab in the YouTube app. 125x reads the channel names, and the screenshots are processed in memory and never stored.
