Watch videos on YouTube without interruptions: Follow these easy steps, and you won't see a single ad.
Ads appear before videos on YouTube. Sometimes watching ads can be boring. However, there are some ways you can get rid of the ads that appear on YouTube.
If you want to watch a video on YouTube, there's a high chance you'll see an ad first. If you haven't subscribed to a premium plan, you'll have to watch ads multiple times until the video is finished. YouTube is free for users, and it needs to show ads to support the content-creation economy. But sometimes, multiple ads appear in the middle of a video, which completely spoils the experience. However, you can get rid of them using a few methods.
Wait a few seconds
Most ads on YouTube are 15 seconds or less and can be skipped after 5 seconds. Watching an ad for 5 seconds isn't too boring, and you can skip it with a single click. So, watching a 5-10 second ad in the middle of a video isn't that bad.
Report the ad
If YouTube is repeatedly showing you the same ad, or you're completely bored with a particular ad, you have the option to report it. You can report the ad by clicking on "Report this ad." Note that this will prevent you from seeing that specific ad again, but you might still see other ads from the same advertiser. However, you'll get rid of the boring ad.
Change your browser
You can use browsers like Opera and Comet instead of Google Chrome, which have built-in features to block ads, including YouTube ads. Alternatively, you can use extensions on Firefox to block YouTube ads. Note that while it was previously possible to block YouTube ads using extensions on Chrome, YouTube no longer allows the use of ad blockers.
Pay for YouTube Premium
If you want to watch ad-free videos on YouTube without any workarounds, you can subscribe to a premium plan. With this service, you can watch ad-free videos in a completely legal and ethical way by paying a small monthly fee. In addition, it offers several other features such as background video playback and video downloading.
