YouTube Ad Auto-skipper: Convenient Ad Skipping on YouTube

YouTube Ad Auto-skipper is a browser extension for Edge that intelligently skips ads on YouTube. It's not an ad-blocker, instead it clicks the 'Skip Ad' button for you, automating the process and saving you time. With advanced features like the ability to set time before ad skipping, mute ads automatically, and even configurable per channel, this extension gives you control over your viewing experience. You can securely support your favorite channels by letting their ads run or choose to skip them entirely.
