Are there any safe, functional apps for iOS mobile devices (specifically iPhone, but iPad would be nice too) that let you use Youtube without ads? Something like what Youtube Revanced is for Android.
In the AppStore, search Vinegar. Works for me. 👍
I recommend this. Firefox Focus works for free also
I gotta parrot this everywhere but Firefox focus works perfectly
Invidious+Yattee is how I roll.
There definitely is a way with jailbreaking, as I’m sure there are tweaks for youtube on the repos. But that requires an exploit.
With no jailbreak - you can sideload this: https://github.com/qnblackcat/uYouPlus
I watch it in the orion browser with ublock
you can use the web version with adguard and it won’t show ads, though sometimes you have to refresh to get to the video

Firefox Focus appears to let me play youtube without ads, but I’m unclear if it’s because I also have the Vinegar extension (which shouldn’t matter, since the extension itself says it only works in Safari.)
There are a handful of options if you’re looking for a tweaked version of the YouTube app (no jailbreak needed) with enhanced options (blocking ads, skipping sponsored segments, allowing downloads, enabling PiP)
I personally use YouTube Reborn Plus https://github.com/arichorn/YouTubeRebornPlus
As for loading the IPA onto my iPhone I use Sideloadly. https://sideloadly.io
I know a lot of others use AltStore. https://altstore.io
Keep in mind, if you have a paid Apple Dev account like myself you only have to load the app on your device once a year. But, if you have a free account you’ll need to do this weekly. That being said, that is why so many users prefer AltStore, it automates the process to ensure you don’t hit that weekly threshold.
I can’t say how, but somehow I turned my iPhone XR into a black box that has no YouTube ads on Chrome.
Brave browser. It has an ad blocker built in.
I’m curious. Why the downvotes?
