About this extension
Skipper is an open-source and creator-friendly browser extension that automatically looks for and interacts with 'skip ad' buttons, enhancing accessibility on platforms like YouTube by allowing users with disabilities to minimize repetitive manual interactions.

Skipper was developed in response to the lack of suitable ad-management extensions that met my personal needs and expectations. After doing some research, I found that the issue I was dealing with was shared by users of common accessibility software due to a gap in functionality that made interaction with specific buttons difficult. Due to this issue, many users download ad-blockers, although this brings a new handful of issues with it!

With this in mind, Skipper aims to tackle various common issues found in existing ad-management options by implementing solutions to these issues in our core design.

Skipper is not designed, intended, or marketed as an ad-blocker of any kind.
