Supposedly, you can watch YouTube with it. YouTube has been blocking adblockers. So, I disable my adblockers. For some reason the adblock software eventually catches up with YouTube and I can use it again.

You may want to edit your OP or create another post with a link to adblock ultimate.
Everyone thinks you're talking about the free version.

Also, it may work on Android Devices:
On Android, it doesn't work on the YouTube App, but may work on YouTube if you open it through their browser?

AdBlocker Ultimate ad-blocking technology is already available in Google Play Store for your Android mobile device. Due to Android OS's policy, we are not allowed to apply our technology across the entire device. Thus we developed our own web browsing app - AdBlocker Ultimate Browser. It is packed with our advanced ad-blocking technology. Since AdBlocker Ultimate Browser originates from users’ most beloved free ad blocking browser extension – AdBlocker Ultimate, it comes with NO predefined whitelist or acceptable ads!

NOTE: In order to see no ads, you need to browse the Internet via AdBlocker Ultimate Browser. Please be aware that AdBlocker Ultimate Browser is a browsing app, not an ad-blocking add-on for your Android device. It doesn’t block ads within other apps (i.e. the YouTube app).


I remember one time, I forgot my MP3 player while working out. So, I went to one of my YouTube Playlists. OMG, the ads.

It may be worth the free trial. If I can watch YouTube via their browser on my phone, I would think it's worth $14/yr.
Hopefully, you can get some better advice about it!


ETA: I read this, but it's from 2016

Apparently, there is no trademark on "Adblock", which seems to add to the confusion

(Now, I'm curious too! I haven't been able to use any ad blocker on my android phone. I tried once and I couldn't get online, so I removed it)
