United StatesTHIS EXTENSION DOES NOT BLOCK NORMAL YOUTUBE ADS, ONLY SPONSORS INSIDE VIDEOS. Use Adguard along with this extension to block both types. It also only works on the YouTube website, not the YouTube app. Compatibility with the Vinegar extension SponsorBlock lets you skip over sponsors, intros, outros, subscription reminders, and other annoying parts of YouTube videos. SponsorBlock is a crowdsourced browser extension that let's anyone submit the start and end time's of sponsored segments and other segments of YouTube videos. Once one person submits this information, everyone else with this extension will skip right over the sponsored segment. You can also skip over non music sections of music videos. This is open source and the entire database is public. Permission explanations: Access your data for youtube.com, www.youtube-nocookie.com: - Used to modify the YouTube webpage Data usage explanations: "Authentication Information": When you install the extension, it will generate a random "userID" that is used when submitting or voting. This allows you to appear on the leaderboard and helps determine reputation of submissions. With this extension, you will automatically skip YouTube sponsors.

Total scam
Don't do what you're supposed to do, don't buy it, don't spend your money on this.
United StatesEssential!
Massive improvement to the YouTube viewing experience. With how constant and intrusive advertising has become online, it's a releif to see there are ways to push back.
United StatesWorks perfectly
Works just like the desktop version. Highly customizable settings so you can tailor it perfectly to your preferences. $3 is a great price to get rid of the annoyance of sponsors. Highly recommend
United StatesI won't go on YouTube without it
Honestly, this is a really good extension. I don't write reviews much but this developer absolutely deserves it. I pay for YouTube premium but hate sponsor segments in the videos. This absolutely that one last annoyance 10 out of 10 recommend.
United StatesCan overdo it sometimes
This app works great…but also can go a bit overboard. I notice I’ll open a video and it will immediately skip halfway through the video! If it keeps up, I may just uninstall it, which is a shame, as I did pay money for this app, as I thought it well worth. Update: now it’s only blocking some sponsor ads, not all :( Update (Jan. 27, 2024): blocking more ads, but always messes up with YouTuber James Hoffmann. Upon clicking on the video, it will 100% of the time jump 3/4 of the way through the video. February 8, 2024. Deleting the app, way to inconsistent. It’s nice when it works though :(
United StatesDon't forget to change macOS Safari Settings
Just installed the app and it worked on the iOS Safari browser but I couldn't seem to get it to work on macOS Safari. Turns out you need to go into the website settings on Safari and 'allow' it access to all the YouTube related things.
