AdSkipper: Auto Skip Ads

Auto skip ads on Youtube without lifting a finger

What it does

WHAT IS ADSKIPPER? AdSkipper is a lightweight Android app that automatically detects and clicks the skip button on video ads the moment it appears. No more waiting, no manual clicking – just seamless, uninterrupted video watching. Unlike ad blockers that may violate platform terms or get detected, AdSkipper simply automates what you already do manually. It works entirely in the background using Android's Accessibility API.

    YouTube banned adblockers so I built an extension to skip their ads2023 · ▲713

    Hi HN! Since Youtube no longer allows AdBlockers, I built my own extension to get around their video ads. If there is an ad it temporarily manipulates the video; Mutes the volume, sets speed to 10x, and skips it if there is a button.
