AdKadabra – Ad Blocker for YouTube

Ads disappear before they reach the player. Lightweight, private, no tracking, no account.

AdKadabra makes YouTube ads disappear before they reach the player. No skip buttons, no countdowns: you go straight to the video. HOW IT WORKS • Removes ad data from YouTube pages before the player reads it, so most ads never load at all. • If an ad still slips through, AdKadabra mutes it, hides it and skips past it instantly. • Hides promoted videos and ad banners on the home page, in search, beside videos and in Shorts. • Blocks YouTube's ad-tracking requests. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No tracking, no analytics, no data collection of any kind. • No account and no sign-up. • Makes no network requests of its own and loads no remote code. • Open source: every line is public on GitHub. SIMPLE • One switch in the popup to pause it. • A counter that shows how many ads vanished, total and today. • Works on youtube.com, m.youtube.com and embedded YouTube players. If you ever see an ad, use "Report it" in the popup so it can be fixed quickly. AdKadabra is an independent project and is not affiliated with or endorsed by YouTube or Google.
