YouTube Playlist Length Calculator
This YouTube playlist length calculator helps you calculate the total time it takes to watch an entire playlist at different playback speeds.
What Is a YouTube Playlist?
A YouTube playlist is a curated collection of videos that play in sequence. These can include tutorials, music videos, podcasts, vlogs, educational series, or any group of related content. Playlists help viewers consume videos in a structured way, often without having to manually click to the next video.
Whether you're watching a 50-part coding course or a chill lofi mix that runs for hours, knowing how much time the playlist will take can be super useful — especially if you're on a tight schedule or planning a binge session.
How it Works?
This YouTube Playlist Duration Calculator uses the YouTube Data API to fetch detailed information about the videos in your playlist. Once you paste a public playlist URL, the tool retrieves the duration of each video, processes the data, and gives you the total watch time in hours, minutes, and seconds.
But it doesn’t stop there. It also calculates how long it would take to watch the entire playlist at different playback speeds — including 1.25x, 1.5x, and 2x speed. This is especially helpful if you’re trying to save time by watching content faster.
