Great app, been using it a few weeks. Works perfectly as described.

That being said, I've recently started using OG YouTube. Any chance of getting AdSkip to work with it?
[Android Apps and Games] cygery:
Might be possible but I won't work on this in the near future.
[Android Apps and Games] cygery:

The app doesn't work anymore
[Android Apps and Games] cygery:
Works fine here running the current version of my app and YouTube 11.32.53.

Please be more specific. What happens when an ad shows up? Is it a skippable ad? If yes, what happens once the skip ad button becomes available?
[Android Apps and Games] milojoseph:
Ad still plays sound and doesn't automatically skip for me
[Android Apps and Games] yogi-:
Stopped working after i updated to 7.0 on 6p, it detects the ad & mutes the volume but it stays like that. It doesn't unmute or skip ad. Running utube 11.32.53
[Android Apps and Games] cygery:
Thanks, I'll try to upgrade my Nexus 9 to Android 7.0 and check if I can reproduce it.
[Android Apps and Games] cygery:
Are you running Android 7.0?

Please try to reboot your device and disable/reenable this app's accessibility service. Maybe it got killed which might explain why it stopped working.
[Android Apps and Games] milojoseph:
Nah 6.0.1 s7e non rooted.
[Android Apps and Games] cygery:
OK, I'm able to reproduce the problem and will try to fix it soon.

Can you include support Addskip for "youtube for android tv".For default youtube app addskip is perfect but not working with ir remote control of tvs.

Not anytime soon. I've neither a compatible device for development and testing nor a lot of time to put into this at the moment.

Any update for Nougat? :(
[Android Apps and Games] elvisypi:
I have an idea there is an app called ogYouTube a modified version with working login and there's a non root version that has a different app id so you can install it as another app. Could somebody modify it to have an add blocker?

Edit: found it. This is a modified version with gray theme and ad blocker https://www.dropbox.com/s/dvd3ohkmmk9ykcp/OGYouTube.v2.1(grey)AdAway.apk?dl=0

[Android Apps and Games] bskienhvqy:
Thanks for good work but not work on my Nvidia Shield Android TV [7.0 Nougat] :(
[Android Apps and Games] cygery:
See last few pages for information regarding Android 7. Support for YouTube's TV version is planned but uncertain.
[Android Apps and Games] nitrous²:
Weird. It's not working. It used to work perfectly.

Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos)

Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow (DBT December patch)

YouTube 12.03.57 arm64 nodpi

I can provide more data if needed.
[Android Apps and Games] cygery:
What exactly happens when an ad and later the skip ad button appear?

Did you install any update recently?
[Android Apps and Games] nitrous²:
As soon as the skip button appears, the ad is skipped by AdSkip. That works. But the audio isn't muted, even after re-activating it.

I was running Nougat and reverted back to Marshmallow yesterday because of battery related issues. No firmware updates since then. AFTER YouTube updated through the Play Store, I installed AdSkip through XDA Labs.

It's my fault, because the first time I reported I didn't wait for the skip button and just assumed AdSkip isn't working because the audio came through.
[Android Apps and Games] cygery:
Thanks, I'll look into this when I continue work on this app (hopefully in ~2 weeks).
[Android Apps and Games] :
Thanks for hard work. Works perfectly on my lenovo vibe p1 with marshmallow.

[Android Apps and Games] krazekid7:
This is not working on the latest version of YouTube (12.07.61) for me.
[Android Apps and Games] nitrous²:
Try cleaning the cache of the YouTube app and then restart your device. Then deactivate and reactivate the settings in AdSkip. This does the trick for me always.
[Android Apps and Games] krazekid7:
Worked for me, thanks!

---------- Post added at 07:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:20 PM ----------

There is kind of a problem now with YouTube ads. Most ads that are being shown don't have the handle to skip the add. They either play for five seconds then play the video or they play for 30 then start the video. Rarely do the ads have that button to skip the add and when they do, adskip works fine.
[Android Apps and Games] nitrous²:
Unfortunately, nothing at all AdSkip can do about the so called "unskippable" ads. YouTube creators decide whether unskippable or skippable ads are shown during their videos.
[Android Apps and Games] krazekid7:
I see, they have a name. Well that sucks. I can't imagine YouTubers not choosing unskippable ads.
[Android Apps and Games] nitrous²:
Actually most big YouTube creators opt for skippable ads with a few exceptions. It's the smaller creators who rely on unskippable ads. But that's a topic for another time and place =)
[Android Apps and Games] realista87:
tested.

does not stop short unskippable ads, neither block audio on them.

but on skippables.... works PERFECT.

i am on resurrection remix 5.8.1 nougat, redmi note 3 pro, youtube official 12.09.58 themed black with swift black theme of substratum.:good::good:
[Android Apps and Games] krazekid7:
Does this work in og YouTube?
[Android Apps and Games] nitrous²:
No. However, if you're rooted, a regular Adblocker like Adaway should work. If you're not rooted, a local VPN Adblocker like Adguard should do the trick.
[Android Apps and Games] krazekid7:
Adclear works but Adguard let's ads through:/
[Android Apps and Games] Wildgreen:
It hasn't worked reliably since the update that was pushed onto my phone (nugat or some****?)
[Android Apps and Games] krazekid7:
It works fine on 7.1.1. You have to reset the YouTube app's cache and then force close it then toggle off then on the adskip settings
[Android Apps and Games] foodcritic89:
I modified the cygery Adskip app to work with OGYoutube. This will mute all video ads and auto click to skip the full ad from playing.

Pm me if you want a link to the APK.
[Android Apps and Games] cygery:
You have no permission to redistribute my app. This includes any modified versions. Thus, I kindly ask you to not redistribute it.
[Android Apps and Games] kingrooterz:
I'll take care of it because it works. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] foodcritic89:
Sorry. I won't distribute it.

Maybe you should upload it yourself. It's a very easy change.
[Android Apps and Games] cygery:
Yup, I hope to continue work on this app this weekend.
[Android Apps and Games] krazekid7:
All that needs to be done is this:

Decompile the Cygery Adskip APK using something like APK Editor Pro

Go to smali/com/cygery/adskip

Edit SkipperAccessibilityService.smali

Replace all "com.google.android.youtube" with "com.google.android.ogyoutube"

Save SkipperAccessibilityService.smali

Recompile

Finish

[Android Apps and Games] ferk:
Now when YouTube AdAway for Xposed doesn't work anymore,

this is the single most useful app out there,

so now we at least can have auto mute and auto skip (after 5 sec) on ads.

It works almost all the time, sometimes it misses to mute the audio on some ads.

Big thanks to the author of this great app.
[Android Apps and Games] munky342:
Hi new user here. I recently installed this as i am sick of YouTube add being so damn loud and long (had one upwards of 7 mins recently).

I was happy for an hour or so, unfortunately after that the ass would mute and skip however there was no video only audio for the actual content i was watching. I thought it was just a bug or something so i closed youtube, cleared the cache and restarted. Now videos won't even load add or not. Anyone have any advice?
[Android Apps and Games] cyclops13:

[Android Apps and Games] zankyw:
Anybody else having issues with the ad-skipping when YouTube is in multi window mode?
[Android Apps and Games] jhericurls:
Works great in portrait, doesn't work in landscape. Sorry if this has been previously mentioned.
[Android Apps and Games] nitrous²:
Changing rotation or minimizing mid-video will interrupt accessibility service and AdSkip. Haven't really looked into it. I'm just guessing. It does happen to me, too.
[Android Apps and Games] Charola:
Hi.

I've installed it with no luck. It does not work.

Does it search for the Caption of the "Skip Ad" text or does it work differently?

Because it's not skipping ads at least in a TV configured in Spanish. "Saltear Anuncio" I think is the caption.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] kendnart:
Can u make for 4.2 ?
[Android Apps and Games] cygery:
I think it should work independently from the set language. Did you try setting your system language to English?
[Android Apps and Games] Ja_som:
It works, when it works, for me also with Slovak language.
[Android Apps and Games] kendnart:
Thx :(
[Android Apps and Games] Charola:

I havent tried english as I dont want to mess with the TV set since Im not the primary user.

But will try. Thanks

Causes Camera to crash on LG G4

I downloaded it through the XDA app and it worked but now the Camera on my LG G4 will not work. Uninstalled both Cygery AdSkip and XDA app but it didn't help.
[Android Apps and Games] cygery:
This app doesn't use the camera.
[Android Apps and Games] hyestack:
I know but this app is quite literally the only change done on the phone before the Camera crash. I open the Camera and it reboots the phone. There were no other apps or changes to the phone before this happened.

I don't know what causes the issues on your device. You might find help in a more general thread.
[Android Apps and Games] hyestack:
How the hell would the General Forums help with the problems YOUR app caused.
[Android Apps and Games] cygery:
As I already wrote, this app doesn't use the camera. I'm unable to help you. If you don't want to look for help elsewhere that's your choice.
[Android Apps and Games] Reilitas:
So hostile..

These things happen, things break for no reason. That's what happens when you do weird things to your phone, and.. if you're saying that this is the source of your problem then there's one 'easy fix.'
[Android Apps and Games] nitrous²:
You clearly lack understanding in how this kind of software works. As Cygery already said, this app doesn't even interfere with anything closely related to the camera.
[Android Apps and Games] hyestack:
You clearly believe in a magical form of coincidence . You download the only new app you have in months and the second you do, boom camera will not work. I guess I must be crazy.
[Android Apps and Games] RyanDre:
Can this be adapted to work for YouTube on Android tv? Or any other option for android tv?
[Android Apps and Games] kenkiller:
Yeah. Ads on YT TV is horrible.
[Android Apps and Games] jsprouts:
Is this app still being maintained? It hasn't updated in a long time.

If so, there are a few slight issues I've found.

-Ads are neither muted nor skipped in minimized mode.

-Surveys are not automatically skipped.

-Sometimes the ad will not be muted or skipped.
[Android Apps and Games] zagzag99:
I think it's pointless, YouTube seems to move to server based ads. Not possible to override without manipulation to the apk itself.or to proxy the requests.
[Android Apps and Games] nitrous²:
Recently I've been getting ~4 second long unskippable ads which AdSkip can't seem to mute. Maybe it's nothing but, every time YouTube's cache hits ~250mb, AdSkip stops muting or sometimes even skipping ads. I noticed that after realizing that clearing the cache of the YouTube app restores AdSkip functionality. Every time AdSkip stops working, I force close YouTube and clear the cache, which almost always is at at least 250mb in such a case.

I've tried multiple times to install but I get error messages. Is the APK written for arm64? I'm using a Pixel.
[Android Apps and Games] Ja_som:
What error message?

It works on my Nexus 5X (arm64)
[Android Apps and Games] mn1225:
Sadly, there's no description. When the APK downloads to the XDA folder, I open the folder with Solid Explorer, tap the APK, then a toast message appears at the bottom saying "error". I thought it might have been a corrupted download. So, I tried downloading a fresh APK but I still keep getting the same results.
[Android Apps and Games] Ja_som:
Try other file manager, installation from unknown sources is enabled? Also if you are on Oreo, you need to enable installations from Solid Explorer.
[Android Apps and Games] mn1225:
I wish it was that simple. I've been on Oreo since DP2 and haven't had any trouble installing other apps from SE. I've also tried installing from the Android Downloads shortcut. I don't think it's the file manager. I'm still thinking that something is getting corrupted in the download.

To be frank, I don't understand what's the purpose of the app. I mean we can just press the Skip Button, it isn't that hard.
[Android Apps and Games] Ja_som:
This app mutes sound in ads, which are much louder (in my country :) ), and also it presses the skip ad button right when it is possible...

You don't need to use this app, if you don't want to ;)
[Android Apps and Games] asylumhouse:
True enough, some ads are crazy loud. They scare the **** out of me at times.
[Android Apps and Games] mn1225:
I figured it out. A beta update of Solid Explorer somehow killed to ability to install. It used to work just in the last couple of weeks but weird things happen. I had to uninstall and reinstall.
