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.

First, pardon my account its my default incognito account and I don’t feel like changing it.

Second, it seems that while it mutes ads, localized ads (ex. non-English ads) still pass through. For your reference, I am in Indonesia.

Any fix for this? Pretty useful app in occasions, too bad most of my ads are regional type.

Thanks

EZ blocker is still getting crashed after 2 or 3 audio ads and even after opening again it does not work.

When I start spotify ezblocker has just been muting it lately, even when just music is playing. I have to close through task manger and re-open and adjust/volume control, because when I try to open ezblocker it won’t open (even though it’s still working)

It is always “Spotify is paused” and nothing works as it should

Love the way the program works, but unfortunately it still let’s the Spotify ads go through (the ads of Spotify itself). The volume mixer depicts them just as “Spotify”, which is the same as it is depicted in EZblocker.

It seems to me when the ad shows up as “Spotify” in EZBlocker, it doesn’t block them. However when it shows up as “Advertisement” it does. Maybe in a next update you could also block adds that are called Spotify? Thanks
