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.

Thanks Eric for the awesome utility!!!! You’re awesome!!! 😉

If you have time, can you please add a feature to remember the last window position, and also too start minimized? It’s extremely annoying having to move and minimize it each time I login. 🙁

Hey, Awesome blocker! However I seem to have run into an issue which I’m not sure is related but perhaps someone could tell me. I had EZBlocker in a folder on my desktop, bought Spotify premium yesterday and decided to remove the folder. Now my hard drive is giving an I/O error and I can’t access it nor use any program which is on that same hard drive.

Could this be in any way related? It happened as soon as I removed it?

If you close Spotify while Ezblocker is open, Ezblocker has a meltdown of notifications saying it can’t find Spotify.

Sorry for my last comment, I meant to say “still receiving no ads”

I removed EZBlocker awhile ago. Spotify still doesn’t have any ads. I want ads on Spotify, how do I fix this? I’ve uninstalled Spotify and reinstalled, still receiving ads.
