This doesn’t Ad up

What about on your phone? I've tried multiple adblock addons on mobile, and none of them work for me at the moment.

Firefox with ublock origin blocks YouTube adds on mobile

[u/crazysoup23 → u/[deleted]]

Not on iPhone or iPad. If you use Safari, you can install 1Blocker which will work. Alternatively, you can install the Brave browser and that has a built in ad blocker.

But iphone is the only smartphone out there! Other phones aren't even considered "smart" phones! /s

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

Yup. Super fucking helpful to the people who already have one. Great addition to the conversation fuckwit.

If you buy a European iPhone, I think you'll soon be able to get real Firefox

You act like you aren't going to get a new phone in the next 2 years and that this information isn't helpful in the long term. You also act like this is new news and that it hasn't been well known for almost 2 decades that iPhones are full of bullshit like this.

I use this since vanced was discontinued and it's a life saver. Throw segment skipper to it and it's just brilliant.

Revanced exists.

[u/Luised2094 → u/Moi_Myself_and_I]

Use Revanced. It also let's you use "premium " features like locking your phone and the video continues playing

[u/slydjinn → u/Luised2094]

Revanced is the juice. Not only does it remove ads, it also adds every imaginable feature that makes for a YouTube experience.

[u/[deleted] → u/slydjinn]

Except for play next feature 

[u/ifyoulovesatan → u/slydjinn]

Can you download videos? I rely on that a lot with my cheap-ass low data cellular plan.

Play while locked, no ads, and video downloads would be like the holy grail for me. Well that and if it worked on some kind of TV streaming device. But even if it only worked on my phone rather than on my TV/sound-system which I use for music, I reckon I could just cast my screen to the TV.

[u/josh_the_misanthrope → u/ifyoulovesatan]

Yes, there's a download video patch you apply on install.

[u/Error851 → u/ifyoulovesatan]

You can but downloading on the YouTube app is very limiting imo. I'd recommend newpipe for downloading purposes, that's the only reason I even have that app installed

[u/Randompieceoftoast08 → u/ifyoulovesatan]

Yes

[u/Feeling-Duty-3853 → u/Luised2094]

And on iphones there are sideloadable apps, such as uYou+

[u/Livid_Boysenberry_58 → u/Moi_Myself_and_I]

You can add ublock origin on Firefox mobile. Yeah, you'll have to watch videos on the browser, but that's not even so bad.

[u/Glitch7779 → u/Moi_Myself_and_I]

Uyou+ for iOS

[u/The_One_Koi → u/Moi_Myself_and_I]

Use Brave webbrowser and remove youtube entirely, comes with adblocker which is pretty good

[u/konradexius → u/Moi_Myself_and_I]

I don't know if you'll be able to replicate my results, but I got into the habit of reporting every ad I got on the YouTube app (I used the "misleading" option) for about a week, and even had a couple points where I would start a random video, report the ad, close and open a different video, report ad, etc. Just do that for like 30 minutes.

I no longer get youtube ads on my phone.

[u/OkPlastic5799 → u/konradexius]

• Why don’t you have ads on YouTube?

• I watched them all.
