StreamShield – Stream Ad Blocker

Watch Twitch and Kick ad-free with StreamShield. Automatic blocking, stream recovery, and whitelisting. Just install and enjoy!

Watch Twitch and Kick the way they were meant to be - ad-free. StreamShield is a lightweight extension that automatically blocks ads on Twitch.tv and Kick.com. No userscripts, no uBlock filters, and no complex configuration required. Just install and watch. What it does: • Blocks pre-roll and mid-roll video ads on Twitch and Kick streams • Blocks VOD ads on Twitch and Kick streams • Seamlessly restores the stream after ad removal - no black screens • Powered by the battle-tested open-source VAFT engine Stream Recovery (Watchdog): Sometimes streams stall after an ad is intercepted. StreamShield’s built-in watchdog monitors your stream in the background and automatically recovers stalled playback- first with a quick pause/play, then a full tab reload if the stream remains unresponsive. Conflict Detection: StreamShield checks for other ad-blocking tools that might interfere with its logic and lets you know in the popup if a conflict is found, ensuring you get the smoothest playback possible. Privacy: StreamShield does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. It only activates on Twitch.tv and Kick.com. Storage is used solely to remember your on/off toggle preferences locally on your device. Permissions used: • storage - saves your enabled/disabled preference locally • tabs - lets the watchdog reload or open the stream tab when playback stalls
