Extension summary
Silences the YouTube video element when ads play. This will not skip ads until the user has sat through the required delay. This extension will automatically close any ads once YouTube deems them available to close.
User reviews
YUP! Let's hope this still does the job as Chrome continues to get updated. Works fantastically.
- Cooper Approved! -
The only extension that works now if you just want ads to be silent, as far as I tested. The skipping function doesn't work but I actually didn't want it to. It doesn't hide ads or anything. Just silence... And if you want to turn on the volume for an ad, you can just mute and unmute while the ad is running. Surprising how it works after 5 years. Occasionally it doesn't work though. I guess it requires Chrome to be on the top, or tab to be open. IDK.
Nice job bro!
