• (2024-07-09) Hey 303: it's not working rn, but so far it's been very useful.
• (2024-07-07) Jetula: UPDATE is required. Simply the best at skipping Ads when watching music videos.
• (2024-07-03) Aleah: Love it, typically it keeps up with youtube ads and so I hope that soon it'll begin to work again!
• (2024-07-02) guegue raouf: As of today it's now detected by youtube for me, it will skip the add and right after i'll get the youtube message asking me to remove addblock
• (2024-06-27) Kingston: so it was working and then youtube was recondnising the ad blocker i was exiting out of it for a couple of times and then it said that in 3 videos it whould ot let me access youtube so i said allow ads and refresh page i didnt remove friendly but then it made it to whwere i searched for a video and it didnt let me play the video i took friendly off and it worked then i put it back on and it is working right now so i hope it stays like this
• (2024-06-14) Amasaden “Amma”: Yeah, was working great but now not so much... You can refresh a few times to get it to work, but its causing problems trying to watch in a playlist.
• (2024-06-05) ハリス: Suddenly not working anymore. You can get away with skipping ads by refreshing but it can take up to doing it several times to work-- this time, it didn't work at that point anymore. Hopefully the devs can update this soon.
• (2024-06-03) Emanuel Cozmanciuc: Switched from AdBlock to this one - it works for now! Fingers crossed. And thank you very much, devs! Edit, Nov 23rd (previous review Oct 17th): as others have mentioned, I kept getting single image ads requiring to press skip for a couple weeks - not too bad - BUT since today, I get full on un-skippable ads :(

• (2024-06-02) memrmarbles me: has been great until last coupe of days.. hopefully they sort it out..
• (2024-06-02) MediaPC Murphy: Works great, makes a huge difference since YouTube is jamming more and more ads in videos
• (2024-05-31) Tyson Ashbaugh: Does not work anymore sadly
• (2024-05-31) Mufmager: As of May 31st 2024 it's not working properly, it displays the Youtube adblock detection and for now, reloading the video 2 times has made it go, but still, its clearly not working properly now.
• (2024-05-29) Sebastien de Boisgency: Does not work as of 29/05/24
• (2024-05-29) Valentine Miller: Worked wonderfully until today. Now when it skips the ad it triggers Youtube to block viewing the video because it detects my adblock. Hopefully this gets fixed soon
• (2024-04-26) Kristina Callison: I LOVE this! There is a small amount of distraction at the moment of ad recognition but ultimately I think it works great
• (2024-03-29) Neo: Worked fine until today, completely misses ads now.
• (2024-03-23) meow meow meow: sometimes doesnt work
• (2024-03-17) Dat Tran: Old review: Works really well to dodge the Youtube pop-up ads saying to disable ad blockers. New review: YouTube has sadly caught onto this adblock and is preventing me from watching further videos until disable it, which unfortunately had to. Please find a workaround for this great extension.

• (2024-03-14) Tumor Tuner: Worked fine until today, completely misses ads now.
• (2024-03-12) Dorflumkin: Worked fine for almost a year. the opera built-in ad blocker triggered youtube's anti adblock, so i downloaded this one and it worked great. the ads loaded for about a second then skipped them immediately. but starting maybe around the end of january, it had begun to miss ads. in the beginning, it was very few and far between so i thought it was just a bug, but it's been getting increasingly worse as time went on, and now it isn't doing anything. the extension says it's blocking ads, but they're still happening.
• (2024-03-08) Sprinkles257: I've had this for a few months now. It worked great for a while, but it stopped working for me as of today. Can you please update this, if possible? Thank you for providing your services for free! :)
• (2024-02-06) Knight Maheruf: Today it got detected by youtube. Please fix.those youtubers who are posting about this on youtube.
• (2024-02-06) Hendrik L.: does work in chrome, but no in brave (got detected) :-(
• (2024-01-30) 阮俊茗: 2023.10.24 有效 2024.1.30更新 无效，被youtube检测无法播放视频
• (2024-01-20) Nobody: shows the ad for like a brief second but other than that it works.
• (2024-01-20) Anton Nimos: YouTube detects this ad blocker and will not allow you to watch videos with this extension enabled.
• (2024-01-19) Mufmager: It used to work fine but it doesn't skip the image ads, 0 stars if I could, I am very annoyed by this. People who leave a dislike must be blind because the extension has a huge flaw with what I just mentioned. It practically just skips the video ads only, but does NOT press the button to skip the image ad, work on that and my review will change.
• (2024-01-18) Passo Edits: This is the one giving you problems. Just remove it.
• (2024-01-17) Raunak Chowdhury: Actually really good. It dosen't work on adds that require you to press a button, but works for everything else. Haven't had any issues with it so far!
• (2024-01-17) Reece Murray: not working on Youtube anymore.
• (2024-01-13) Gumball Darwin: Minor setback - there were still one more ad before even start playing the said video, which showing some kind of greyed thing covering the playback along with time countdown at the very right up and skip ad button at below. Solution? Just wait 'till the next update, or reset the cache.
• (2024-01-08) hollis mason: INCREDIBLE!
• (2024-01-07) Anna Waytray: Works great, thank you! In my experience using this extension, ads on Youtube just play for a second and then you can skip them (on Chrome using a laptop in Dec. 2023 - Jan 2024). It's the best one out there! Would recommend.
• (2023-12-20) Mis.Astrid (Mis.Astrid): Work nearly flawlessly.
• (2023-12-15) Ethan: Excellent app. Its a creative way to get around absurd ad restrictions-- keep up the good work
• (2023-12-07) Annie Lamb: It works!!! I've been through all the other currently available ad blockers and as of 12/07/2023 this one skips them 100% effectively!! I will update if it stops working!
