Review Summary
The extension effectively auto-skips skippable YouTube ads, greatly enhancing user experience, and is praised for its reliability and regular updates. Users appreciate that it supports creators by not blocking all ads. However, the extension sometimes stops working after Chrome updates and lacks clear subscription management notifications.
