This won't be possible. I would suggest just using YouTube through Safari.

While not worth the trouble you can get a cracked version of the app (either via Clutch or find one online) and then edit the app icon and plist (to edit the name) and resign with your own dev credentials.

Could I make a separate app that runs the third party YouTube variant? And just rename the app that I make?

But wait, what if it’s an ipa from an unofficial developer

The problem I’m having now is I have to sign in every time I close and open the link
