Hey,

when I am listening on desktop, and there is an ad, ad-free starts playing 'anti-ad'

Hi back!

Spotify broadcasts ads to all active clients. So when an ad occurs on your computer and your phone runs the Spotify app, the ad will also occur on your phone.

There is currently no way I can detect this behaviour with ad-free, but when you quit the Spotify app on mobile, this should not happen afaik.

I'll try to force-quit or something. So far spotify on Android always turns itself on.
