  description

  TubeShield is a focused, single-purpose extension that hides advertisements and sponsored content on YouTube — and shows you exactly what it blocked.
  WHAT IT BLOCKS
  • Pre-roll, mid-roll, and post-roll video ads — auto-skipped or fast-forwarded with audio muted
  • Banners, masthead ads, and in-player overlays
  • Sponsored and promoted videos in your home feed and search results
  • Shorts shelves and the Shorts entry in the sidebar
  • The "ad blocker detected" popup
  • Common ad and tracker network requests
  THE DASHBOARD
  Click the toolbar icon to see a clean, live dashboard:
  • Total ads blocked since install
  • Estimated time saved on video ads
  • Per-category breakdown — video skips, fast-forwards, banners, sponsored items, Shorts shelves, anti-adblock popups, network requests
  • Recent activity log with timestamps
  • One-click reset
  WHY IT'S DIFFERENT
  • Single-purpose — only runs on youtube.com and youtube-nocookie.com
  • No account, no signup, no upsells, no ads, no remote code
  • Manifest V3, lightweight, fast
  • All stats stored locally in your browser — nothing is sent anywhere
  PRIVACY
  TubeShield does not collect, track, or transmit any user data. Stats live in chrome.storage.local on your computer and never leave it. No telemetry, no analytics.
