YouTube Tests Sleep Timer for Premium Users

The feature, available until September 2, allows users to pause playback after a set time, enhancing bedtime viewing experiences.

YouTube Premium subscribers can enable the sleep timer through the experimental features page or settings menu.
The timer offers options to pause playback after 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, or 60 minutes, or when the video ends.
This feature aims to prevent long videos from playing uninterrupted through the night, conserving data and battery life.
Users without YouTube Premium can use alternative methods like iPhone's built-in timer or third-party Android apps.
The feature's future availability depends on user feedback during the testing period.
