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.
This works really well, but I do have one reoccurring issue. I currently have the “Mute Only Spotify” unchecked and the “Disable All Ads (Experimental)” checked. The ads are skipped, and I get to listen to just my music. So it works great. However, there is an issue with the display for some reason. Over time, the box displaying the music gets smaller (vertically), leaving empty gray space below the list displayed. As a result, less songs are displayed at a time.
Outside of that issue, the functionality is great and I’m satisfied with the download.
Any way to make this auto load with Spotify?
This thing is actually legit! 🙂
Please let a Linux version!!
The latest version just keeps crashing on Windows 10
New update to Spotify, and I can confirm the previous stable version of this modification still works just fine on my end in Windows 10 64bit. I’ve yet to update this, since I see some people are having problems with the latest, so if the last update stops working, then I’ll finally update the mod.
I’ll keep you people posted. Thanks again Eric, and I really hope someday you can possibly figure out a way to get this to work on Android as well.
When for Mac users? :'(
Hi,
Thanks for this very useful program. I downloaded v1.6.3.0, it work seamless.
But if i choose “Disable all ads” (yes it is experimental) it also disable my web pages which i visit on Chrome browser. Maybe someone found this useful but, i want allow some web sites show me ads for support them.
Thanks
