Meta Ads Enhancements Disabler

About

Disable Meta's "Advantage+" AI enhancements in Facebook Ads Manager with one click. Ship your creatives exactly as you uploaded them — no auto-cropped images, no AI music, no rewritten captions, no surprise site links.

WHAT IT DOES

Meta has quietly pre-enabled ~60 AI "enhancement" toggles inside every ad you create — Advantage+ creative, Standard enhancements, Music, Catalog items, Site links, Promotions, Add image templates, Visual touch-ups, Branding, audience expansion, placements expansion, and many more. Most marketers don't realise the toggles exist until reporting goes sideways.

This extension flips them off:
• One ad at a time — click "Disable Enhancements" in the popup, or use the floating widget on the Ads Manager page
• In bulk — sweep every draft (or active ad) in an account in one run, with undo
• Per-category control — keep what you like, kill what you don't

KEY FEATURES

✓ 60+ enhancement categories supported
✓ Bulk mode with progress, cancel, and undo
✓ Per-account category locks — different settings per ad account
✓ Whitelist by ad name regex — skip ads you don't want touched
✓ Floating widget on Ads Manager (draggable, dismissable)
✓ Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + D
✓ Stats and history of recent runs
✓ Auto-disable while editing — flips new toggles off as Meta renders them
✓ Dark / light / auto theme

WHY INSTALL

→ Predictable creative — your ad runs as you designed it, not as Meta's model "improved" it
→ Cleaner A/B tests — no hidden variable from AI variants
→ Saves 20-30 clicks per ad — manual disabling is buried in 4 levels of sub-modals
→ Bulk fix for accounts already polluted with enhancements

PRIVACY

Built by an independent developer who got tired of Meta turning his ads into something else.
