I’m using this all the time myself. There is no login to YouTube required and it supports adding subscriptions and doing everything important you can do on YouTube.
And the best part is no ads whatsoever.
SmartTube beta on Android TV is fanfuckingtastic.
Ive been using it for years now and holy shit. Even if it doesnt blocked ads and even youtubers own ads, the app itself is FAR superior than anything what this vanilla youtube app is supposed to be.
You mean even if it didn’t? Because it definitely DOES and you’re absolutely right about the rest
Yes thats what i mean. Even if it didnt then still the app is SUPERIOR IN EVERY WAY than vanilla youtube. But it does block everything. Its a godsend.
Even just having Sponsorblock built-in changed my life!!
+1
Can it be used on a “normal” android phone or just android tv?
on Android phone you might wanna check out Tubular or LibreTube.
It’s a no for phones, set top (android) boxes only. My friend has had success running it on Windows 11 and casting to his TV.
Huh? I run SmartTube beta on my phone. I don’t recall having to do anything “magic” to get it working.
Use revanced
I love this app and would use it even if it didn’t block ads. The user experience is just so much better than the regular YouTube TV app. I’ve sent a few donations to the developer to thank them for their work.
Don’t forget Playlet for Roku!
Unfortunately it doesn’t work without a login. Also the search function stopped working entirely for me recently.
