Important: In Version 6.28.0, we removed the option to allowlist YouTube channels. At this time, we don't intend to bring this feature back, but we'd love to have your input: Submit your feedback.
Unblock all ads on YouTube
On any AdBlock version, you can unblock all ads on YouTube:
-
Go to http://YouTube.com and click the AdBlock icon on your browser's toolbar.
-
Click Pause on this site.
This will allow ads on YouTube for 7 days.
If at any time you want to block ads again, use the same steps:
-
Go to http://YouTube.com and click the AdBlock icon on your browser's toolbar.
-
Click Resume Ad Blocking.
Allow Ads On Specific YouTube Channels (Older versions before 6.28.0)
To allow ads on specific YouTube channels, follow these steps:
-
Click the AdBlock icon on the browser toolbar.
-
Click the gear icon to open the Options page.
-
On the General tab, select Allow ads on specific YouTube channels. (Not seeing this?)
-
Restart your browser or refresh the current page.
-
Visit a video in the YouTube channel you want to allowlist.
-
Click the AdBlock button in the browser toolbar and select Allow ads on this channel. (Not seeing this?)
If you change your mind, you can remove a YouTube channel at any time. Just visit the channel page, click the AdBlock icon on the browser toolbar, and select Enable AdBlock on this page.
Allow Ads On Subscribed YouTube Channels (Older versions before 6.28.0)
First, make sure you’ve already enabled YouTube channel allowlisting by following the steps listed above. Next, toggle the switch labeled “Manage AdBlock settings from my YouTube subscriptions page” to on (it will turn blue). The switch is just below the option to “Allow ads on specific YouTube channels.”
Now you can add and remove channels from your AdBlock allowlist right from your YouTube subscriptions page. From this page, click the AdBlock Assistant icon in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen and select “Allow Ads On All” to allow ads on all of your subscribed channels.
If you change your mind, you can resume normal ad blocking by selecting “Block Ads On All,” or you can remove channels individually from the YouTube subscriptions page or by clicking “Block ads on this channel” from any video posted by the channel you’d like to remove.
