User reviews

Only auto mute that's working as of 2/23/25. I like to listen to live music sets on YouTube, and having the same King Soopers ad blast every three to six minutes is a form or torture nobody should be subjected to. This extention is a godsend.

Love that it mutes and blackouts the video. That alone makes it worth it. If it would skip too I would be in heaven!!! The worst is if its a 3 min ad then its just blacked out for 3 mins. Still better then nothing!
