User reviews


Automatically skips most of the Youtube adds when the Skip button appears. The permissions required are only for the accessing the data on the Youtube website, which is great. Reaching the Skip button and clicking on it can be a problem for people with accessibility needs, so this add-on can be an important accessibility tool.
