User reviews

Does not work at all

Hasn't been updated since: 17th May 2024. Does not work, and won't until it's been updated. I'd recommend running: AdBlockPlus and Ghostery, those two together 'Sometimes' block/catch ads on Twitch depending on the type of ad and where it's placed. There is a highly rated one called: Pie Adblock, but check out the reviews...All spammed over today/yesterday. Looks a little dodgy to me, but maybe keep an eye on it. EDIT: Yeah, don't install Pie Adblock, tied to 'Honey' that were scamming people.
