I would usually suggest Newpipe but that’s a little buggy rn so Libretube is probably your best bet, that even has sponsorblock aka it skips in video promotions from influencers too!

Thank you !!

Highly recommended. Fdroid is one way to install, you can also download an .apk from the new pipe website.

Kiwi browser with ublock origin extension or revanced or newpipe

Would recommend using nextdns for all other ads

jcrabapple ,

Use LibreTube.

TrackerControl may work for this if you must use the stock app, newpipe is probably the best solution and finally, you can also use ad blocking dns and there may be VPN solutions as well.

Good luck

Alternatively, you can use the official YouTube site with Mull browser or Firefox with the ublock origin extension installed. But NewPipe offers a better experience since you can download videos etc.

Newpipe can also continue to play videoes with the screen turned off. The interface is really nice.

Firefox too can do that! At least Fennec F-Droid, working like a charm under LineageOS!

LocustOfControl ,

Firefox + uBlock is my suggestion too, it makes mobile browsing bearable.

TraditionalMuslim ,

Yes, you can use NewPipe x Sponsorblock or LibreTube

FeelzGoodMan420 ,

Firefox + ublock origin = zero youtube ads. Fuck the app.

BiomedOtaku OP ,

Thank you all for your comments ! I appreciate the help.

LibreTube, comes with SponsorBlock builtin and uses the Piped backend.

Aside from Revanced, you can’t really block ads on the Youtube app. You can use your browser or Newpipe/Libretube as an alternative, but that’s it.
