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

      They’re saying it doesn’t work to block ads on YouTube and I can confirm that they’re correct.

        Yes, but it works

        You could also use a custom DNS like NextDNS on Android 10+, but it’s not as private as adaway

          You need to add an Xposed module for it to block ads on YouTube though, requiring root. AdAway VPN mode on unrooted phones won’t block YouTube ads. I just triple checked and tried it again to make sure I wasn’t talking out of my ass.
