How to Skip Youtube Auto-ads on Android without Root

Are you tired of the constant interruptions of auto-play ads on YouTube while watching videos on your Android device? If so, you're not alone. In this blog post, we will explore some effective methods to help you skip YouTube auto-ads without having to root your Android device.

Method 1: Use YouTube Premium

The easiest and most straightforward method to avoid ads on YouTube is by subscribing to YouTube Premium. With a YouTube Premium subscription, you can enjoy an ad-free experience across all devices, as well as other benefits like background play and offline viewing. To sign up for YouTube Premium, follow these steps:

  1. Open the YouTube app on your Android device.
  2. Tap on your profile picture or avatar in the top right corner of the screen.
  3. Select "Settings."
  4. Scroll down to the "Memberships" section and tap on "Get YouTube Premium."
  5. Choose your preferred subscription plan and follow the prompts to complete the sign-up process.

Method 2: Use a Third-party App

If you don't want to pay for YouTube Premium or simply prefer not to use it, there are third-party apps available that can help you skip auto-ads on YouTube. One such app is NewPipe. Here's how to install and use it:

  1. Download the NewPipe apk from a trusted source.
  2. Enable "Install apps from Unknown Sources" in your device settings before installing the app.
  3. Install and open NewPipe on your Android device.
  4. Sign in with your YouTube account or create a new one within the app if necessary.
  5. Search for the video you want to watch and tap on it.
  6. The video will start playing without ads, as NewPipe is designed to bypass them.

Method 3: Use Ad Blockers

Another option to block YouTube ads is by using a browser with an integrated ad blocker or installing an ad-blocking extension on your Android device. However, keep in mind that some ad-blockers might not be effective against YouTube's auto-play ads as they are designed to work differently. Some popular ad-blocking apps for Android include AdBlock Plus, Brave Browser, and UC Browser.

To use an ad-blocker with the YouTube app:

  1. Install your preferred ad-blocking browser or extension on your Android device.
  2. Set up the ad-blocker according to its specific instructions for using it with YouTube.
  3. Open the YouTube website in your ad-blocking browser or use the YouTube app with the extension enabled.

By following one of these methods, you'll be able to enjoy a more seamless and interruption-free YouTube experience on your Android device. Remember that using some third-party apps or extensions may have potential risks, so always make sure to download them from trusted sources and use them at your own discretion.
