About

Hex Ad Shield

Fewer interruptions while watching videos in the browser on desktop. The extension targets Google’s video site (including the mobile web layout), plus embedded players on blogs and news pages.

What you get
• Less clutter from video and display-style promotions on supported pages
• Cleaner layout after blocking or hiding overlays
• Simple toolbar popup: turn protection on or off and adjust options
• For Chromium-based browsers from Chrome 109 onward

How it works
Hex Ad Shield combines Chrome’s declarative network rules with scripts that run only on the pages this extension supports. Some ad-related requests are filtered at the network level; scripts handle elements that would still appear in the page. Your settings stay on your device.

Privacy
Built for that video experience only—not a general ad blocker for the whole web. No sale of personal data. Not affiliated with Google or the video platform.

Getting started
Install, open a watch page, and use the toolbar icon to change settings. After a major site update, check the store for a new extension version if behavior changes.
