Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

FastForward circumvents sites which make you wait (like adf.ly), make you do something (e.g., show.co and sub2unlock.com) and even trackers (such as bit.ly and t.co)! It also helps to prevent your IP address from being logged by sites by blocking them.

*It Does Not Bypass Paywalls!*

Privacy note:

When you have the "Crowd Bypass" option enabled, we record some links of link shortners that you visit to allow other uses to bypass them faster. This also collects a hashed version of your public IP address. See our privacy policy for more details. https://fastforward.team/privacy

Garbage, does not work

themaxx2023年10月3日

Biggest waste of time, Don't bother with this extension it does nothing at it claims in fact it doesn't do anything, Ublock does more work than this garbage extension.

Hope Jones2023年9月27日

It doesn't work at all... I miss the version when we had to manually install it. At least that one actually worked.

Christopher W. Herasme2023年9月23日

A veces me pregunto si esto realmente funciona o no, como vengo de probar universalbypass que era mucho mejor de lo que lo han convertido en lo que es ahora, básicamente una extensión totalmente más capada.

Pongsatond Trechinapong2023年9月18日

It's been a while that I gave up on this extension. It's good to know that this back on it's feet once again.

AI product read

Automatically bypasses link shorteners, ad redirectors, trackers, and blocks IP loggers in the browser

Users waste time navigating through link shorteners (adf.ly, linkvertise, sub2unlock.com) that force waiting, watching ads, or completing tasks. FastForward skips these intermediate pages and redirects directly to the final destination, while also protecting against IP logging by trackers.

1) User installs extension and it runs automatically on all URLs via content_script.js. 2) When visiting a known link shortener, the matching bypass script (from bypasses/ directory) executes and extracts the destination URL. 3) For tracker links, the extension optionally uses the Unshorten.me API. 4) For unknown shorteners, Crowd Bypass queries crowd.fastforward.team for community-reported destinations. 5) User is automatically redirected to the final destination after a configurable delay. 6) IP loggers are blocked via declarativeNetRequest rules.

Target users: Users who frequently download files from link-shortener-heavy sites / Privacy-conscious users who want to avoid IP logging and tracking / Power users who want to skip ad-heavy redirect chains / Developers/users of file sharing and download sites

No login or payment infrastructure found — analysis is conclusive for a free, open-source community tool
Crowd Bypass sends hashed IP to fastforward.team servers per privacy policy (not login, but worth noting for privacy-aware users)

Monetization

No paid features detected

The extension is free and open-source (GitHub: FastForwardTeam/FastForward). No payment platforms, subscriptions, premium tiers, or billing APIs are present. The 'premium' keyword hit in bypasses/admaven.js line 17 is the URL 'thepremium.online', which is a target site the extension bypasses, not a paid feature indicator. All options (Crowd Bypass, tracker bypass, IP logger blocking) are available to all users without gating. The 'pro' keyword matches are false positives from localization strings (e.g., 'proporciona', 'promjene', 'proveri', 'prosledi') meaning 'provide/change/check' in various languages.

Confidence: 95
Payment platform: --
Source: AI / High
Login required: No
Reason: The extension operates entirely locally within the browser with no user authentication flow. All options are stored in chrome.storage.local. The 'Crowd Bypass' feature communicates with crowd.fastforward.team via anonymous POST requests without any authentication tokens or user credentials. The token/session/userid keyword hits in bypass scripts (linkvertise.js, adtival.js, workink.js, fourshared.js) refer to tokens used to interact with the *target* link-shortener websites, not to authenticate the extension's user.
