It shows the word "AD" in notification when ad is playing so I think it's not a complicated ad so hoping you can add it!

Thank you for this app!

It does kind of work with pandora, but is intermittent. Sometimes it mutes the ad just fine and does exactly as intended, resuming the music after the ad has played silently. But occasionally Pandora instead pops up a message saying that it paused the station while the device is muted, and you must manually tell it to start playing again. I'm not sure why sometimes it sees it was muted and other times it doesn't notice.

Perhaps instead of muting the device, the program could simply set the media volume to the minimum step above mute? Thus Pandora would only think you changed volume but not think it is muted.
