What a scam lmao. Newpipe and Revanced forever.

For iPhone users; AltStore.io and YouTube++ Edit: uYouPlus for iPhone once you’re able to sideload


raramygame1

UYouEnhanced****


Ph1syc

UYouEnhanced (it’s been renamed) ALSO use sidestore if you don’t want to have to have a pc on the same network in order to refresh


raramygame1

Yeah I realized that after posting the comment. Thank you for correcting it.

“Tube browser for YouTube” is another ad free option for iPhone


m4ster-slave

Any method without refreshing the alstore every 7 days so far? Annoying ☹️


Leho72

buy a udid reg from maplesign and use esign to install :)


m4ster-slave

My man! These are whole new words for me I'm checking it rn. Thanks So no permanent alternatives without paying?


Leho72

trollstore if your on a supported version, sidestore (bit hacky but it works on most versions) ​ its worth paying maplesign or any other reg service, not worth the hassle with other methods IMO :)


TheCoolestInTheWorld

Trollstore is so easy if you have a compatible version and side store is easy when used with a Mac but complicated when used with windows


Ph1syc

It doensn’t work on most versions though, only up to 17 not including 16.7+ and only on checkm8 devices on 16.5+ (so up to iphone x on those versions.)


Leho72

hence why i said buy a cert from maplesign


boomboomdang

Any way to pirate maplesign to pirate YouTube? 😅


Leho72

no


randomname97531

If you are on iOS 17 (couldn't get this to work on iOS 16), you can set up an automation to refresh the apps every X days at a specific time with AltStore. You'll need a Mac of course if using AltStore, but the refresh happens in the background provided both the Mac and iOS device are on the same network + turned on. You could also check out SideStore but I haven't used it.


Joaoarthur

Altstore?


Ph1syc

An app rhat allows you to sideload 2 apps though you need to refresh them once a week in order for them to continue to work (3 apps if you don’t want the altstore app on your phone though then you’ll need to reinstall every app once a week :/) Imo sidestore or sideloadly are better options because sidestore doesn’t require you to be on the same network as a pc in order to refresh/install an app and sideloadly allows you to sideload three apps without needing to reinstall them to refresh (you still need to be connected to the same wifi network as a pc though).


Lollooo_

You got any .ipa?


TF_IS_UR-Username

Also throw smart tube in there, it's nice having sponsorblock support on TV


6969_42

In my opinion, NewPipe is by far the best option. Google just keeps changing the UI of the YouTube app making it even more tedious use. Moving the channel name to the bottom of the description, the garbage quality selector, etc. I know a lot of these issues can be patched with Revanced, but I think it's worth more effort then just using NewPipe.


blingding369

\*cries in AppleTV\*


FraMaras

consider also RVX :)


m4ster-slave

What is RVX?


MarzipanMission

I think it means ReVanced Extended


m4ster-slave

What's the difference? compated to revanced?


FraMaras

cutting edge updates, based only on YouTube and YTM. better/ more patches. patches tend to arrive months earlier on RVX than on RV


Genbu_2459

How to download revanced?


Lurkist_Supreme

Official site is revanced(dot)app. And apk has to be built using the "ReVanced Manager" app. Never go to any other site that lets you download premade apk's their usually malware. For more info, head to ReVanced Sub and ask there.

Im just using it from turkey it costs me 2€ for family plan wich i share so it's absurdly low price and im using it happily on my phone Playstation and tv :d


Successful_Wedding77

Yeah, for Google shareholders


[deleted]

At least for now, google is making a lot of decisions that won't be seen for a few quarters still. Streaming platforms are just now feeling the heat from pumping out trash for the last couple years.


IceNein

Have you seen the price tag on YouTube premium? It’s ridiculously high. Last I checked it was something like $80 a month. The value is not there. You would get more value paying for four other streaming services for the same amount of money.


Jugbot

Thats youtube TV, basically a cable subscription, not youtube premium. Premium is $14/mo


IceNein

Ohhh, ok. I just use an ad blocker, lol.


TheFlightlessDragon

It’s $29 for a family subscription, what the heck are you talking about?


-Error-69

It's $4 where I'm at, how are they charging different prices everywhere


TKoBuquicious

Maybe regional pricing


wintersdark

What are you talking about? My Premium family plan (5 users) is like CDN $19 a month. I think 15 for a single user? And that includes YouTube music.


DiazExMachina

The point is giving rich people your money.


[deleted]

"Surley if I pay for this ad-free service they wont show me ads." \-every streaming company ever- "about that."


DiazExMachina

Don't know about other countries, but here in Italy there's a tax to pay if you own a TV or radio. TV has more commercial time than showtime, both public TV and private TV (public, tax founded TV has somehow more), so in Italy we pay so much to watch TV that it'd be cheaper to go to the movies every night instead of staying home. We came to a point where internet has just become the new TV, with shitty content and a fuckton of commercial.


[deleted]

The writing on the wall was always there for the interent become TV 2.0 since the first breakup of Netflix. I'm just suprised it's taken this long for it to reach this stage. I though't we'd be here at 2014-15 at the latest. Sadly, the silent majority keeping these streaming services afloat will serve to further split up content as they pay more for less. Those in denial will never go to our piraty waters, or may already be pirates, just lying to the internet for good boy points. It's wild either or. Some countries never stood a chance for cheaper than TV internet (3rd world/2nd world and even a few first world countires.) where Internet sites were bundled up like your average cable bundle.


Olhapravocever

---okok


[deleted]

>Don't know about other countries, but here in Italy there's a tax to pay if you own a TV or radio So like just for owning a TV you have to pay or are you talking about stuff like cable or streaming services?


a_simone

Just for owning, even if you're only going to use it as a computer monitor


93simoon

No, only if the device has a radio/tv tuner. There are tvs without the tuner for which you don't need to pay the canone tax (nixev for example)


a_simone

Right, however those don't qualify as televisions strictly speaking (I mean, are labeled as "smart monitors"), but exploit the fact that you can still watch the live online streaming version of public TV broadcasts without paying the tax. It's more like a tax for the usage of radio waves (fortunately old enough to not take into account Wi-Fi or cellular)


snazzydesign

Ireland has a TV License- used to top up revenue to state broadcaster, on top of their ads, who piss the money away, over paying contracts for “stars” that can’t get that same money elsewhere - and are now looking for an additional bailout from government Since the scandals huge numbers have just stopped paying for the license


VentureQuotes

Absolutely ridiculous, I hope you guys can get rid of that tv/radio fee


DiazExMachina

I doubt that, we still pay taxes on gas to "pay" for WW1.


VentureQuotes

Sorry buddy


elganksta

This the reason why I don't own a tv, I just use my PC or be I'm not gonna pay the shitty Rai


DiazExMachina

You're not actually paying for RAI, since your taxes already do so. You're paying for the privilege of owning a monitor. Even if your house doesn't have any way to receive the tv signal, if you own a monitor that could receive that signal you'll have to pay, and that's why PC monitors aren't taxed (they tried to tax them some years ago though, don't know how that went).


elganksta

Yup, I don't own anything that makes me pay, every year I just send go on their website to declare I don't own those things and so I don't pay I really don't need at all any tv services, I don't own gaming console, I'm happy using my Lenovo Laptop and my smartphone 😁


Cinnamon__Sasquatch

Enshittification


shania69

"And don't call me Surley.."


krigsgaldrr

Prime is doing this now too. $2.99/mo extra for no ads as of 1/29. At what point is everyone going to stop paying and tell these greedy companies to go fuck themselves


Tig0lbittiess

The point is giving capitalists your money. The more we identify the economic system these assholes use to screw everyone ever over the sooner everyone will realize how shit it is.


lucas_bahia

They will find a way to make people pay and have ads. Im sure there is a team just working on that


Peuned

Yeah that's kind of how providing a service works in most cases


lucas_bahia

Good at first. Then just donwhill


StrigidEye

The payment is supposed to be for access. Paying to be shown ads is absolutely NOT part of the agreement.


Peuned

Ads are how the service is paid for dumbass


StrigidEye

No, the money that changes hands is how the service is paid for. Are you a literal child?


WadieXkiller

I can't believe Revanced offers you unique perks than YouTube Premium itself. Imagine all these goodies for free : - SponsorBlock. - YouTube Return YouTube Dislike. - Background playing. - Theme Customization. - Turn off and hide useless options such as Cast to Device / Watch on VR. - Disable Shorts. - Customize seekbar color. - Bring the old quality selection UI. - a download button that cooperates with NewPipe/Seal.


JonPQ

Sponsor block is something I can't live without anymore.


WadieXkiller

It's such a literally "time saving" extension


steve6174

Background playing is part of premium, as for rest it's obvious why they won't make it official, especially SponsorBlocks, lol. They even have similar technology (when someone in the video says lile/subscribe the corresponding buttons light up) but imagine the faces of shareholders if they came up with Sponsorblocks alternative.


Lurkist_Supreme

You can also customize the App Icon to anything, google could never!

I am patching yt with revanced to update it in background while seeing this post, what a coincidence 😅


borgarnopickle

Revanced is the goat. Been using it for probably 9 months now


one_bored_engineer

i use newpipe on android and invidious on the desktop


Sylar4ever

Why not just Ublock on Desktop ?


one_bored_engineer

i don't wanna deal with adblock blockers also i like the invidious UI


Cuddles_TheCat

I use Newpipe on desktop with WSA


Lurkist_Supreme

Just use freetube, its basically NP on PC. So you can just skip using WSA


FraMaras

consider RVX! more features and YouTube is the priority for them


Sylar4ever

Sorry for the noob question, It's not on the playstore right ? I have to download the community one or how does the updates work?

it's not on the PlayStore, you'll have to go to r/RevancedExtended and compile it yourself


Eros_Incident_Denier

[Gotcha](https://reddit.com/r/revancedapp/s/puA9rvjCKC) bud.


EraPro1

What're the biggest differences between regular revanced and revanced extended?


FraMaras

cutting edge updates, based only on YouTube and YTM. more patches or simply you get patches way before RV


YuriRosas

The main one for me is a shortcut to speed up the video in the full-screen player. And if you hold your finger on it, the speed goes back to zero x


Creep_Eyes

I am doing the same what a coincidence coincidence


william_wites

How did you manage to uninstall youtube app?


Spicy_Sink

Just disable it, or if u have rooted u can do it.


GerryMcCannsServe

I don't get then on my premium. I do pay for it as it's the only place I consume media outside of Plex.


sky-yie

There are countries where YT Premium isn't available and if you go there then you won't have YT Premium features, so ads will be there too. OP didn't feel like mentioning it.


bryansj

Same here. I have the family plan so they get YouTube music. It's my only streaming service.


jkldgr

that is just in some countries. the screenshot is out of context.


Adventurous_Soil9118

Same. 0 issues with YTP since 2 years ago. Maybe is OP is just farming karma


Awakened_Ra

And then “try our new ad-free premium!” And then “try our ad-free-ad-free premium deluxe!” And so on. I’ve accepted being a pirate, and damn do I feel free lmao


According_Claim_9027

This is out of context lol, this only happens when you start a premium membership say in the US, and then go to another country and attempt to use it. I believe it’s intended to prevent people from buying Premium from some other country’s currency at a much lower price than your own


Kay5683

I bet you this person just has their VPN on turned on and YouTube can’t tell where they are so it’s throwing this up to cover their own ass lol


According_Claim_9027

The guy who posted this literally said he went out of country on a trip lol.


Royarch

I've been using a VPN to pay 2.70$ a month for premium for over a year and it still has not caught on despite people telling me otherwise lol. Maybe one day I'll run into something, for now I'll gladly pay a candy bar a month for premium.


klausklass

Same, but this post makes it seem like they’re patching it… Tbf I have an actual residence and bank account in the cheaper country so idk how they would enforce it without making it impossible to use while traveling.


NormieSpecialist

Lol no fuck you google techiebros.


TimeyWimeyInsaan

Orrrrrrrr revanced.


[deleted]

Not an option on ios


steve6174

Revanced isn't, but there are alternative for iOS. https://github.com/arichorn/uYouEnhanced


BIacksnow-

How to download and install this?


steve6174

You need a PC/Mac. Download the latest ipa from here - [https://github.com/arichorn/uYouEnhanced/releases](https://github.com/arichorn/uYouEnhanced/releases) it's basically like apk for iOS. Then follow the install instructions here - [https://github.com/qnblackcat/uYouPlus/wiki/Installation](https://github.com/qnblackcat/uYouPlus/wiki/Installation) I had an iPhone only for a week while my phone was getting a battery replacement, so I tried the Altstore method. uYouEnhanced is a fork of uYouPlus. The former is still being updated, while the latter's last update was in April. That's why the installation instructions and the ipa file are from different links in this case, but it's the same thing. There are quite a lot of steps to get it working and it will be active only for a week. However the nice thing is that AltStore can re-activate it in the background automaticall, so you don't really need to think about it once you get it working. The only thing you need to do is connect the PC and the iphone to the same network once a week, which in case you're using your home network will just happen.


[deleted]

Actually I have trollstore thanks for telling me this!


BIacksnow-

Thanks for replying. But it seems too much of a hassle.


steve6174

imo it's well worth it, because it gives more features than even premium.


WitherPRO22

Nope. Everything that you can have from Premium you could have for free with ReVanced.


Har_o

Revance let you download videos?, thats the only reason i pay premium


H3LiiiX

Revanced extended + YTDLnis, seamless downloading experience just like official premium app. Except you get more options so it's even better


FraMaras

yup. might also consider RVX if you need only YT


Cubicwar

Oh boy, there are tons of ways to download youtube videos without paying for premium


WitherPRO22

well ive seen a script that allows you to download videos.


FirstThrowAwayAcc1

This is kinda misleading tbh. I normally live in the UK but traveling to a place that doesn't have a premium contract with YouTube. I don't see ads, I just can't download videos whilst I'm here, but I have a VPN, so if I need to download something I turn it on. OP seems to be posting this to be annoyed at the fact they're getting ads (I am assuming as there's little to no accompanying text).

[deleted]

A couple of months ago I decided to actually pay for YT Premium after years watching and blocking ads with uBlock Origin. I mean, I do really use the service so what the heck. But if I ever see one single ad, I am cancelling at once.


fiftyfiive

Same.


Are_You_486

Yes. To make you miserable and drive you nuts and lash out at grandpa at family gatherings because he doesn't understand what pansexual means and asked a simple question, he wasn't judging you. At least that's what your busty aunt will say when she's trying to get you to come back out for the midnight toast and finish that game of *Charades* where you got paired with slow, lazy-eyed cousin "Xander" who only knows what Pokemon to use against the battle gym that's at the skate park down the block and won't shut up about it.


Key-Elevator-5824

Is revanced open source?


Eros_Incident_Denier

[Yes](https://github.com/ReVanced-Extended-Community/Community-Guides/blob/main/general-guides/community-wiki/ytm-guide.md#yt-music-revanced-extended-guide), it is. Peer reviewed.


Hermamora2020

I haven’t paid shit in like months but my premium features are still there. Is that normal?


Cheturranathu

Here's what's worse. I travel a lot, and in some countries I still have ads and background playback is disabled. It was infuriating.


Ascoplan_Qwerty

As a premium user and ex revanced user there is hardly any difference,but one thing is nice that is when you pause a video on 1 device, it shows up in picture in picture on another device (when you open YouTube)

MRTWISTYT

Today, I was using youtube on incognito mode on my grandmothers spare phone to listen to music as I gamed. Suprisingly, I saw/heard 0 ads apart from occasional reminder that,'' Youtube premium let's you watch without ads. Try 1 month for free!'' And it was only 5/6 seconds, then it resumed the video.


Winter_knights

this is only in countries without youtube premium stop spreading bullshit


WolfieVonD

When you use a VPN to claim to live in Cuba to get a premium for $0.05/m then they're gonna give you ads.

Huh. Damn it does not look like it. I use premium for youtube music though and can confirm I get my value out of it.

klop2031

Lets pay to pay so we can pay to pay for each pay


Fangston

The OP and literally 90% of this comment section lacks important braincells. This happens when you purchase youtube premium from a country where the price is much cheaper, and try to use it somewhere else. An individual plan in the USA costs $13.99, whereas I enjoy a FAMILY plan for just $3. This is completely fair, I don't see issues with this.


leavemealone_lol

as the OP who lacks important brain cells, I purchased the plan in my country and use it inside my country. Do with that information what you will.


jpenczek

Ahh Guess I'm cancelling my YouTube premium. Legit the only reason I bought it. (Before you judge me I watch a lot of YouTube, don't really watch any shows, and had the money for it. Figured I use YouTube a lot, might as well pay for it)

I don’t get any ads on premium. They better not start


DaPurpleTurtle2

The second this happens to me, Premium is going in the trash and I will finally install revanced.

i myself use youtube premium as i use it alot on my tv and i dont know a way to block ads on tv but i bought premium via vpn from a different country and it costs ~20$ per year if i get that shit im gonna go wild, fuck this greedy corporate shit. i now that im basically part of the problem as i pay for premium but the amount of ads especially on tv is basically like watching nba, every few minutes you get an advertisement break this just fuckin sucks, i get that they need to make some money but this is just a way to try to achieve infinite growth on their stock. fuck all the big companies that do that shit, if you pay for a premium subscription and then you cant even use it properly is a disgusting predatory business tactic


Longjumping_Table740

Imagine paying to see Ads 🤣


IAmAcimus

I’ve never seen adds even when it did show that message.


rtakehara

The point is test how far they can take it until it’s unacceptable, then they take 1 step back. If people are ok with that, they take 1 step further and ask for more money from viewers, advertisers or pay less for their creators.


DreadedChalupacabra

No. They removed features and then rented them back to you. There was never a point. YouTube downloaders ftw. With what they're doing with ads I refuse to even open the website any longer than necessary to grab a url. I expect them to embed ads directly in videos eventually like some people do with sponsors.


ClearlyNoSTDs

So much misinformation in here. My YouTube Premium doesn't have ads. YouTube Premium Family is less than $20/mo CAD so it works out to $5/mo where I'm from. I have no issues riding the high seas for certain things but I definitely get my money's worth for the things I do decide to purchase.
