Skipper — Skip Video Ads

Skipper helps you get back to your show faster by automatically skipping or fast-forwarding advertisements on supported streaming sites. SUPPORTED PLATFORMS • Hotstar — skips ad video segments automatically • Amazon Prime Video — skips and fast-forwards Prime ads • YouTube — skips platform ads and fast-forwards creator promo segments HOW IT WORKS Skipper runs only on the sites above. When you watch a video, it detects ad playback and either jumps past the ad or speeds through it. You stay in control with simple on/off toggles in the toolbar popup. YOUTUBE CREATOR PROMOS On YouTube watch pages, Skipper can analyze publicly available captions to find sponsored segments and fast-forward through them. Detected promo time ranges appear in the popup so you know what was skipped.
