 1 | # SpotiByeBye
 2 | ## How it works
 3 | The program detects when an advertisement plays by monitoring the type of the track that is currently playing, using the Spotipy API. 
 4 | When an ad is detected, the program restarts Spotify by the os module and plays it via pynput.
 5 | 
 6 | ## Setting up the Spotify API
 7 | 1. Go to https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard and sign in with your Spotify account.
 8 | 2. Click on the 'CREATE AN APP' option and provide an app name and app description as you'd like.
 9 | 3. Go to 'EDIT SETTINGS' and **exactly** fill in the Redirect URIs placeholder with https://google.com/, and click on Save.
10 | 4. Copy the Client ID and Client Secret and paste it in the corresponding place holders in ByeAds.py.
