About this application

Ad-silence is an Android application by BluePie that mutes advertisements in streaming audio applications. Rather than removing the advertising content, it silences playback while an advertisement is running, then restores sound afterwards. Accuradio and Spotify are named as supported clients, and the application also accepts a user-specified custom application, so it can be pointed at other audio players installed on the device.

The package is described as under 150 KB, which keeps its footprint on the device small. It is licensed under GPL-3.0-only, meaning modified and redistributed versions must remain under the same licence.

The approach depends on detecting when an advertisement is playing in the target application, so results vary with how each client behaves and how it changes over time. Only Android is listed as a supported platform.
