How to Block Ads on YouTube (Chrome, Edge & Safari)

YouTube ads have gotten longer and more frequent — unskippable pre-rolls, mid-roll breaks in the middle of a video, and banners over the player. The good news: you can remove all of them with a single extension.

Block YouTube ads on Chrome and Edge

1. Install All Block from the Chrome Web Store (it also works in Microsoft Edge).
2. Pin the extension and make sure it is enabled.
3. Open any YouTube video — pre-roll, mid-roll and banner ads are gone, with no setup required.

Block YouTube ads on iPhone, iPad and Mac

On Safari, install the All Block app for iOS or macOS, then enable the extension in Safari settings. Once it is on, YouTube plays without ad interruptions in the browser.

Why an extension beats the tricks

You will find plenty of tricks online — adding a dot to the domain, fiddling with URLs, muting and skipping manually. They are fragile and stop working within days. A dedicated ad blocker keeps its filters updated, so YouTube stays ad-free without you thinking about it. As a bonus, blocking video ads means less data used and faster load times.

Blocking ads on YouTube is the most common reason people install an ad blocker — and the easiest problem to solve permanently.
