Overview
Automatically mute or lower the volume of YouTube & Twitch ads, then restore your audio. No tracking, no ad-blocking.
Tired of ads that suddenly BLAST at twice the volume of what you were watching? Ad Audio Guard fixes exactly that.
The moment a YouTube or Twitch ad starts, it automatically mutes the ad — or lowers it to a volume you choose — and restores your original volume the instant the ad ends. You stay in control of your ears, without blocking ads or hurting creators.
WHAT IT DOES
• Detects when an ad starts on YouTube and Twitch
• Mutes the ad completely, or lowers it to 10% / 30% / 50% — or any level with a slider
• Restores your exact previous volume when the ad finishes
• A simple popup with an on/off switch and the volume control; changes apply instantly
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No data collection. No analytics. No tracking.
• No network requests of any kind.
• Your settings are stored locally on your device only.
• Minimal permissions — it runs only on YouTube and Twitch.
NOT AN AD BLOCKER
Ad Audio Guard never hides or skips ads. Ads still play and still count — it only adjusts the audio. This keeps it friendly to creators and avoids anti-ad-block systems.
WHY
YouTube and Twitch ads are often mixed far louder than normal content. If you listen at low volume — classical music, late at night, or with headphones — a sudden loud ad is jarring. This extension keeps that loudness in check, automatically.
Works on Chrome, Brave, Edge, and other Chromium browsers. A Firefox build is also available.
