EZBlocker is a simple-to-use ad blocker/muter for Spotify. EZBlocker will attempt to block ads on Spotify from loading. If an ad does load, EZBlocker will mute Spotify until the ad is over.
There are no fancy features, just pure ad blocking. When an ad is blocked, only Spotify is muted, so no other sounds will be affected. EZBlocker aims to be the most stable and reliable ad blocker for Spotify.
There's no setup required - just drag it into any folder and run. To upgrade your EZBlocker, simply replace the executable file.

FAQ
Why is my Spotify is permanently muted?
There may be issues with EZBlocker muting Spotify on your computer. You can manually modify your Spotify's volume by opening the Volume Mixer.
How do I block banner ads?
Check the "Block Banner Ads" box to enable banner blocking. Enabling and disabling this feature requires you to run EZBlocker with administrator privileges.
Does EZBlocker block video commercials?
EZBlocker will mute videos but not prevent them from playing. If you don't want video ads, make sure you keep your Spotify minimized.
Why does my anti-virus say EZBlocker is a virus?
The latest version of EZBlocker may be picked up by a few anti virus programs. This is most likely due to the way EZBlocker disables Spotify's ads. If you do not feel comfortable downloading the executables directly, feel free to view the source code and compile it yourself.
How do I donate?
I don't accept donations for EZBlocker. I would rather you spend your money on Spotify Premium. If Spotify Premium isn't offered in your region, I suggest donating to a non-profit such as the Tor Project.
Is EZBlocker open source?
Yes it is, and I encourage all to contribute. The source & technical description is available on Github.
If you run into any issues, comment below in detail the issue you're having.
is there a mac version?
Its muting spotify unnecesarily, from the beginning without any ads actually playing, so i have to unmute manually.
EZBlocker Version: 1.7.3.0
Spotify Version: 1.1.19.480
First of all, great job !
However I am having an issue today due to a change of configuration : I am using two headsets, one for music, one for audio chats.
The last one is the default audio output for Windows.
Spotify is playing on the first one.
Using this setup, EZBlocker is not detecting that Spotify is playing : “Spotify is paused”
Thanks for working on your tool
it blocked my music
Still muting songs randomly…
I have Spotify on a split line from my main audio output. EzBlocker doesn’t recognise it on the auxiliary output but does on the main output. I want to keep Spotify on the aux, is there any way this can be considered in the program? As in choosing the output for the program?
