Ad skipping doesn't occur on the mobile YouTube website

Open lflaurflorin opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Script version 3.4

Describe the bug Ads are not skipped on the mobile YouTube website (https://m.youtube.com/*)

Expected behavior I should have seen a number popping up in tampermonkey, meaning that the script is activated, but it was not activated. Checking the script edit, i found some check matching the desktop YouTube website, but not for the mobile YouTube website. Thus, are not skipped on m.youtube.com - mobile

I don't know is this is the cause of not... But it appears to be just from my observations. Hope it will sort the issue for mobile YouTube website. Thank you!

the mobile youtube runs a different website and sadly no one can clearly hack into devtools on it

I'm still grateful that it works on the regular YouTube 😁 thank you for pointing this out, i wasn't aware of this.

On mobile, i do have alternatives, so for now i will be happy with them on mobile and with this script on desktop.

For this, i do this change : Change the @match line from https://www.youtube.com/* into https://*.youtube.com/*

This will also allow ad skips on youtube mobile, and youtube music on my browser
