[Desktop][Other] able to skip songs but not ads??

[sissyf]

not sure if this is just me, but when an ad comes on, i'm usually able to skip it after 5 seconds or something like that, but now if i try to do that it comes up with "please try again after the ad"??? but i'm still able to skip songs...

does anyone know if i can fix this and if so how?

Hi @sissyf,

Thanks for posting in the Community!

Ads are important as they help keep the service free for our fans. It’s not possible to skip an ad with Spotify free. This now includes videos ads too.

If you don’t wish to hear or see any ads, check out what Spotify Premium offers are available in your region.

Don't hesitate to reach out again if you have questions.
