A Safari Web Extension that adds a button to the YouTube player to skip everything, including ads.
A public release build is currently not available. Instead, you have to build the extension yourself.
- Clone the repository
- Open the project in Xcode
- Optional: Sign both targets (Personal Team with a Development certificate is sufficient)
- Go to
Product
>Archive
- Click
Distribute App
- Select
Copy App
and choose a destination
Done! If you did not sign your application, you will have to allow unsigned extensions in Safari's Develop
menu.
Open the built application to install the extension. Before you can use the extension, you need to grant it access to youtube.com
. You can do this either via the icon in the toolbar while visiting YouTube, or in the Safari settings.
The extension now adds a new button (⏩) in the YouTube player. This allows to skip the currently displayed content (including advertisements).
