Extension summary
We created this tool with a simple mission: make your YouTube watching smoother while still supporting the creators we all love. YouTube's policies are tough on ad blockers, so instead, we find those ads and skip them for you. It's a win-win - the ads are there but won't get in your way.
✨ Features
- Comprehensive Ad Removal
YouTube AdAway removes all advertisements on YouTube, ensuring an uninterrupted viewing experience—even on videos with non-skippable ads.
- AutoSkipping Toggle
We empower users with the choice to control the auto-skipping of ads. With a simple press of the q key, you can manually skip ads whenever possible, when the auto-skip feature is turned off.
- Optimized Performance
Utilizing MutationObserver, we provide a modern and streamlined approach to instantly detect webpage changes, ensuring top-notch performance without unnecessary workload.
