Anybody know of a good apk that blocks ads while watching YouTube on my phone app ?

I like revanced
You can find pre-compiled apks on Mobilism.
YouTube revanced is awesome but theres a bit more to it than installing a single apk
This is the way
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.
Another plug for Revanced, simple to install, does the job
Firefox for Android with uBlock. I get the YouTube front end (live subscriptions, recommended home feed, livestreams etc.) but no ads.
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 or LibreTube.
i suggest to use a open source front end (such as newpipe). and use adayaw (a hosts based ad blocker) for the generic ads
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
Browser with extensions is great and all but Youtube Revanced still way better option it support gesture google account (that google can’t track you) picture in picture and it’s easier on your device’s ram/cpu, for in app ads you can try Lucky Patcher to remove ads as long as the app is not using account to buy premium features LP should work on most app
Use " dns.adguard.com " for your dns.
I haven’t had an ad since making the switch.
Youtube revanced
Thank you all for your comments ! I appreciate the help.
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!
