Description
Stops videos and audio from playing on their own. Allow any site with one click. Videos and audio play when you ask, not when a page decides. Chrome has no setting that turns autoplay off. Its Sound setting only silences a site: the video keeps running, keeps downloading and keeps using your CPU. Autoplay Blocker stops the playback itself, muted autoplay included. WHAT YOU GET • Blocks autoplay of video and audio on every site • Allow or block the site you are on from the toolbar; a rule for a domain also covers its subdomains • Click a video, or press a key for the main one, and it plays; the approval belongs to that video only • A badge counts the media held back on the tab; the icon dims on sites you allow • Live media such as video calls and streams is never blocked • Embedded players follow the page they sit in FREE AND PRO Blocking is free. Pro adds control for people who tune their sites: manage site rules in settings, changes that apply without a reload, an "after click" mode, blocking YouTube's animated hover previews, and a way to support the development of Autoplay Blocker. Every Pro feature is free during the launch; paid licences will be announced here and on the website before they start. PRIVACY The extension collects nothing and makes no network requests of its own. Your rules and settings stay in your browser. It has no analytics, ads or trackers and loads no remote code. Full policy: https://syafwan.com/en/work/autoplay-blocker/privacy LIMITS Audio made with the Web Audio API and players that draw to a canvas are not covered yet. Animated hover thumbnails are pictures, not media; Pro blocks YouTube's. Interface languages: English and Bahasa Indonesia.
