DeArrow is a free and open-source browser extension designed to replace YouTube video thumbnails and titles with ones that more accurately reflect the video's content. The extension relies on a user-submitted database, which is shared with SponsorBlock. The replacement thumbnail has to be chosen from within the video. It is named after the arrows in Tom Scott's video thumbnails.
