Not the official website. Please be warned.

This is the official revanced website: https://revanced.app/

And their github: https://github.com/revanced

    It looks like the OP's link has been updated.

    Gotta love federation issues. Still seeing the original version over on the instance I use.

    Question: I tried about a month ago to get this going and it seemed like it wouldn't work for YouTube unless my phone was rooted. Am I missing something?

    I have F-Droid, but don't see vanced microg. https://search.f-droid.org/?q=microg

    Edit: I added the repository and it says the microg stuff is already installed: https://microg.org/download.html
    Edit2: as @scottmeme@sh.itjust.works said here, I had to download the YouTube apk.
    Edit3: I can patch the downloaded apk, but still working on installing it.
    Edit4: Getting the error "App not installed as package conflicts with an existing package."
    Edit5: I think I'm going to have to get ADB going on my computer in order to uninstall the original YouTube from my phone.

    You have to enable the patch to give revanced a different name

    So far I've been able to patch a downloaded .apk, but I can't install the patched .apk. Are you saying I should be renaming something?

    It's in the manager, "custom branding" i think it is. It's one of the patches.

    Alternately if you can uninstall actual YouTube that solves it too.

    Ok, thanks for the additional guidance. I don't see anything like that, so I remain stuck haha.

    ReVanced is a popular modding tool for enhancing Android apps like YouTube, offering features such as ad-blocking, background playback, and customizable themes. Unlike YouTube Premium, it’s free but requires technical know-how for patching. Its open-source nature and compatibility with non-rooted devices make it accessible. However, users should be cautious about security risks and terms-of-service violations when using modded apps. Always download from official sources to stay safe.
