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.
Which link does it point to?
“ReVanced dot net” which is not the official page and has a nonzero chance of being malicious.
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?
you probably get more features with root, but i’ve been running it rootless since vanced
Yeah Vanced worked for me rootless. I’ll try again and see what happens.
I had to download the APK from apkmirror, and build it from local storage. Worked perfectly fine after that.
have you turned on micro-g while building?
Yes, I’ve figured it out now. I explain here where I went wrong.

*vanced microg services, fdroid has it
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.”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.
I was tired of using MicroG services so I switched to LibreTube
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.
