Many tend to press and hold the fast forward option to get to the point they want.

Most of the time it’s used to skip through the ads.

The process can be quite hit and miss, requiring you to carefully decide when to click the play button at the right point.

But according to YouTuber and TikToker Wades Ramsey – real name Luke – there’s a much easier way.

All you need to do is click the up button, then the right button.

This will automatically jump you ahead by one minute.

Do it two or three times and that should get you through the entire duration of the adverts.

“If you just press up and then press right it will skip a minute, so you can easily skip your adverts out rather than just pressing fast forward it skips a minute at a time,” he explained to The Sun.
