A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

They said they're on IOS.
Hmm. I've always had premium so never looked into ReVanced. I knew it existed, but didn't realise it might be useful for more than just bypassing ads.
Most of these should be regular settings. I want several of them. My biggest bugbear is shorts. But I also want to be rid of those little popup things and the overlay cards at the end of a video.
The reviews on the play store make this sound like a pretty trash app. Maybe I'm looking at the wrong one...
Revanced isn't in an app store (at least not a legit version), you have to build it yourself. Otherwise it would probably end like Vanced. Take care of scam websites, this is the real one: https://revanced.app/
Or check this guide: https://www.reddit.com/r/revancedapp/comments/xlcny9/revanced_manager_guide_for_dummies/ (yes, it's Reddit, but the guide was really useful to me 🤷♂️)
Thanks, that's much different! lol This looks pretty involved. Does it need to be updated all the time as Youtube updates, similar to NewPipe? Because NewPipe is a pain to keep updated but it also a lot less work. lol
What I usually do is tell the Play Store to not update it. Also, I don't think it's that involved. Take this with a grain of salt because I'm pretty experienced with phone modification, but I think it's just downloading the file, opening it, selecting YouTube, choosing what modifications you want, and installing it.
I don't find it at all annoying to keep NewPipe up to date.
I think you may need to take a look at Obtainium.
Anything revanced on the play store is fake. You cannot get Revanced from the play store. https://revanced.app/
