Or press the "back-arrow" and then the "forward-arrow" again (on the left top of the UA-cam window, left of the refresh button). The video will start playing too without the ad.
It doesn’t work all of the time now. Sometimes it has to be done a couple to 3 times. But it also doesn’t stop internal ads. This trick does that. Problem is. It has to be done every single video & can’t be used on apps
Honestly though, who watches videos on their computers? I either watch from the app on my phone or from my smart tv. If you have any tricks for these things that would be great, but I don’t think they exist.
Those days are gone really. If use your phone, the app is the best experience for watching videos. Paying for premium is the only way to ensure you don’t have ads.
Indeed @marieta.s , I'm not watching YT on my 15" laptop when I have a large TV in the room. I have just cancelled my subscription and can't believe just how much YT has ramped up the AD frequency and length!
If you have a smartphone you can use the VPN as described. Then you can cast the video from your phone to your TV if it's connected to the same Wi-Fi network. I watch a lot of UA-cam and I would n't watch the ad version. It's worth it to me to pay 12 bucks to get by all that crap. Course now the video presenters are advertising their wares too so that's so capitalism
@@flight505. Yeah. It won’t work in app . If you can get to the address bar it would though. I’ve known about this for yrs. It also makes vids sharable across different countries that otherwise would block it for the cookies .
With ad block, I never see ads on YT when on my pc or laptop. My phone is another story. Ad block does not work on my android phone so I will try this. Thank you.
I find it rather strange the difference a device makes. If I watch UA-cam on a kindle cube or on Roku tv, commercial city. Yet on a tablet it is almost rare??🤔
yeah - but I made an extension to help with that/ pretty handy chromewebstore.google.com/detail/majorgeeks-ytoggle/ijebhklpagegmfpdomkjccieecjibdio?authuser=0&hl=en
yeah- You lose some functionality when using the noscript version. I made an extension that helps with that if you want to try it out. chromewebstore.google.com/detail/majorgeeks-ytoggle/ijebhklpagegmfpdomkjccieecjibdio?authuser=0&hl=en
How to watch only commercials? Content is often more boring than advertisements. 😜. Channels that make sense to me and are not prone to self-promotion, I watch normally with commercials. I don't watch the rest and I have no problems with advertisements. Thanks for the video.
I have no idea why/how, but I don't see ads when watching videos here. If someone knows how I did this, I would love to know! I don't remember ever doing anything to enable a "no ads" function.
I have tried about a dozen tools over the years, they all work for a while, then they find a way to stop it, i find it just as easy to wait the 5 seconds and carry on.
yeah -- but there a functionality limitations with that version so swapping back is a pain if you do that. I ended up writing an extension to handle that issue. ua-cam.com/video/SXsF1VfhYvA/v-deo.html
I have another easier solution. Press the next button on the right hand side of the play button to go to the next video, then press the back button on your browser. This takes less than 1 second and removes all ads.
A bit of a faff but good to know if Google actually ban/block adblocker extensions one day. Be cool if it worked on Chromecast which is the only medium I have left that doesn't block ads. Mainly because I can't be arsed setting up a custom router based firewall/vpn 😂
Speed. It's way faster than on bottom due to the travel distance of 4k monitors. You can use somehting like this to see your usage. www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/cursordistance.html
Which brand of tv? With LG you can root the webOS and install a new App Store with an ad-free UA-cam. You might be able to get an alternative YT app on a TV running Android. I don’t think there is anything available yet for Samsung TVs.
I heard what you said. Where IS the URL? HOW do you open it? Please advise... Standing by.... BTW, I have an Android phone and 2 Windows laptops. Cheers!
Ads are baked in to the youtube app. You have to use either the revanced app or the kiwi browser with the adblock origin chrome extension (you can run chrome desktop extensions in kiwi).
Waste of time. Many people are inserting in-video ads on their own. Can't stop them. Just fast-forward. I pay for UA-cam Premium, and STILL have to watch in-video ads or fast-forward.
So you're too cheap to pay premium and won't even let a 6 second ad play so that the creator of the video can get paid for all the hard work. I guess good luck with your own channel.
LOL - Never been described as that before. This is using Googles own service that they provide to the user -- just not well known. Best use for long vides that have the inserted ads. But, brother you are preaching to the choir on ad blocking. I've been fighting that battel for over a decade.
Funny thing is I had to watch 2 ads before I viewed your video.
LOL -- That's funny. But thanks for the views. :)
You mean watched?
@@heartlights don't gaslight.
Same here 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lucky i had a 2 hour 1 for a film lamo
If you have a VPN, set it to Albania or Myanmar (Burma) as Google don't have deals with these countries to show ads, hence you see no ads.
Is there a vpn provider that can set to myanmar?

This trick does that.
Problem is. It has to be done every single video & can’t be used on apps
Wil you still get ads while the video is playing tho ?
Thanks. Double take: I first thought you-tube but indeed it is yout-ube. Thanks for being explicit.
Me too. He needs to be more clear.
I actually forgot about this, used to do this to watch fullscreen on my old S Tab.
With an adblocker or the Brave browser!
Brave browser rocks :)
As of yesterday I have had lead-in ads with Brave and u Block O. It surprised me. Maybe I need to reboot.
Brave doesn’t need an ad blocked. Been using brave without one and still works every time
Brave all the way

Thanks! Very useful for me.
yes, or click the youtube logo that takes you to your main page then the back arrow as soon as it appears, it thinks you have watched the ad
Use BRAVE BROWSER no additional ad blocked need it as it comes with an ad blocker built into the browser.
Does this work on Firefox?
Is there a way to stop ads in the UA-cam app on my phone?
Nope
Yea, buy premium.
But when you are just using the youtube app thumbnail on an ipad it does not show the link address at the top. Great shared info though😀
Fantastic, thanks!
Why not just use Firefox instead of Chrome?

How to watch UA-cam with no ads. The 10sec video first you are going to download Brave end of video
FYI ... Does NOT WORK when using the UA-cam APP vs. Browser. Also, tried it in Chrome got page saying "there is a typo ....."
What about age-restricted videos? Will UA-cam prompt me to verify age by logging in?
No sure - but likely no since there are no prescripts

Not internal ads .
They will come up in the video as usual.
It would be cool to turn this into a addon or some sort of exe.
Does this only need to be done once or for every video?
Everyone right now - I am working on something to automate it though... SHHHHH don't tell anyone. :)

Open youtube in a browser not the app.

just tried , get site cant be reached message
Wait, you mean there are ads on youtube?
It will --it is a service provided by Google to comply with GDPR
Not as good as the previous way where you could zip to the end of the video and then rewind and watch ads free.
But, I dont want to watch youtube ads for free! I dont want to watch them at all!
it works in android tv too
I imagine this will not live for long ...
Mobile compatible?
yeah - If you are viewing chrome. It wont work in the app
so you go to a third party domain....
No -- It is googles domain. They et it up for GDPR reasons.
