About BRADS - Break from ads
BRADS replaces the visual and audio interruption of YouTube ads with a simple, relaxing screen. The ad continues playing, and when it ends BRADS restores the video and its previous volume automatically.
During an ad, you can choose to view it, play optional local background music, adjust its volume, or open Chill suggestions. YouTube’s native “Skip ad” button remains accessible when available.
Features:
• Designed for YouTube on desktop Chrome
• English and Italian interface
• Windows 98-inspired themes
• Customizable wallpaper, window palette, music, and Chill suggestions
• No registration, analytics, advertising cookies, or tracking
• Preferences remain on your device
BRADS does not block advertising requests or collect personal data.
