Automatically Import YouTube Titles as Lesson Names

Current Behavior: When importing content from YouTube, LingQ does not automatically use the video’s title as the lesson name. Users must manually copy and paste the title, which adds an unnecessary step to the workflow.
Proposed Improvement: Automatically extract and apply the YouTube video title as the default lesson name during import. This would streamline the process, reduce manual input, and help users keep their imported lessons organized and recognizable.

Mark Kaufmann I agree with this post with one provision. If Lingq will extract the title of the video, be sure to remove any marks of number of new notifications, that YouTube often prepends to the title. For example, if I have one new notification on youtube, then every video I look at will have "(1) " prepended to the title. It would be a good thing, to not have that "(1) " in the title, as it is not related to the video. Is this possible (and feasible)?
