Review summary

Users initially praise the add-on for effectively blocking YouTube ads and enhancing viewing experience. However, multiple reviews indicate it has become ineffective due to YouTube detecting the ad blocker and blocking video playback. This detection leads to frequent usability issues, causing frustration. Users note the need for timely updates to counter YouTube's anti-adblock strategies. Many suggest switching to alternative ad blockers as a result. Overall, while the add-on was once reliable, recent changes by YouTube have severely impacted its effectiveness and user satisfaction.

2025-06-11 ko***** fonctionne tellement bien que meme youtube a trouver le truc pour nous obliger à le desactiver....
2025-06-11 Fi***** Yes 👍
2025-06-11 al***** This works great 99% of the time. For all the crybabies whining that it doesn't work in June 2025 it's only because google updated their code to beat the adblockers like they have several times in the last few years. Give it a few days and ABL will have them blocked again.
2025-06-10 ri***** Het was te mooi om waar te zijn maar aan al het goede komt een einde. Youtube herkent hem en laat geen video meer zin als de actief is.
