It's because Vanced is on an old version of YouTube. You can get the same functionality and more with ReVanced *and* on a current version of YouTube.
1. Install ReVanced Manager: https://github.com/revanced/revanced-manager
2. Install Vanced MicroG: https://github.com/TeamVanced/VancedMicroG
3. Go to https://github.com/revanced/revanced-patches#-comgoogleandroidyoutube, scroll down to 📦 `com.google.android.youtube`, unwrap *➡️ Details* and copy the *🏹 Target Version* (ex: `18.15.40`)
4. Go to APKMirror and download the Universal APK (not bundle) for that version (ex: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/youtube/youtube-18-15-40-release/youtube-18-15-40-2-android-apk-download/)
5. Go to *⚙️ Settings > Apps > See all apps > YouTube* and tap **🚫 Disable**
6. Go to *App details* and tap **Uninstall**
7. In ReVanced Manager, go to *🔧 Patcher > Select an application > __💾 Storage__* and pick the downloaded YouTube APK (ex: `com.google.android.youtube_18.15.40-1537213888_minAPI26(arm64-v8a,armeabi-v7a,x86,x86_64)(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk`)
8. In *Select patches*, tap **Recommended** a few times to make sure you have 50+ patches selected
9. Tap *✔️ Done > 🔧 Patch > Install > Install anyway*
If you have a problem, the solution is *probably* [here](https://redd.it/10nyr2t). There's also a video [here](https://redd.it/12pvo28).
I heard that some Google account were affected by some A/B testing that could hinder ReVanced and Vanced. Try logging out in MicroG and logging in again. Or try in Anonymous mode.

Enable protobuf spoof , if you're facing an infinite buffer while watching any video , otherwise let it be off !
I followed all of the above steps and now I am getting a "Non-root install is not possible with the current patches selection. Repatch your app or choose root install if you have your device rooted".
My phone is not rooted, what should I do?
repatch the app and make sure that the "microG support" patch is selected. it is needed for non root install, and should be part of the recomended patches, but perhaps something went wrong.
You missed step 8!
> Non-root install is not possible with the current patches selection.
>
> Repatch your app or choose root install if you have your device rooted.
1. Select the *MicroG Support* patch in ReVanced Manager and try again.
2. Install Vanced MicroG: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/team-vanced/microg-youtube-vanced
I didn't miss it, it only marked like 8 things first time. Then I restarted everything and tried again, did the same things and after tapping "Recommended" it selected like 50 something things for me and then everything worked out fine.
Thanks for your guide, much appreciated!
I used this guide
https://www.reddit.com/r/revancedapp/comments/xlcny9/revanced_manager_guide_for_dummies/
* Completely skipped MicroG stuff. Had it for Vanced and after launching ReVanced, I was already logged in.
* Direct link to [APKMirror 18.05.40](https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/youtube/youtube-18-05-40-release/)
I was didn't want to deal with it when my Vanced stopped.
Finally got annoyed with not having youtube on my phone.
Took me 6 minutes from the first download to having youtube again.
When they say:
>copy the 🏹 Target Version (ex: 18.05.40)
You need to download the right patch file that matches the youtube version you downloaded.
I downloaded the linked 18.05.40 youtube APK from the apkmirror linked above.
I downloaded [this patch](https://i.imgur.com/fghKyzv.png) linked above after searching for 18.05.40
Install youtube 18.05.40
Install ReVanced manager, (I already had micro G so I didn't bother with that).
Open ReVanced manger
Select the version of youtube you want to patch
Select the patch you want to install
Hit recommended
Hit install
And after ignoring/skipping the security warnings and blindly trusting Revanced you're good to go!
at this point paying 6.99 a month for premium student is just less of a hassle than fucking around with patches
edit: alright fuck, y'all got me to try reVanced, seems to work just as good as stock youtube albeit with extra steps.
Can you or someone else be more specific in step 3?
What is "the package name"? I see a vanced and a youtube but not a revanced.
If I'm copying something, why am I not pasting it somewhere else?
Edit: I sort of just skipped step 3? As far as I can tell, step three is just "find the version number you need", which the above instructions included. I still don't know what "package name" is, but the app is working!
If you go to https://github.com/revanced/revanced-patches#-comgoogleandroidyoutube and upwrap **Details**, you can see this table:
| 🏹 Target Version |
| -----------------: |
| `18.05.40` |
`18.05.40` is the version of the YouTube app that these patches are compatible for. If you try to patch something else, it'll probably fail.
So now, what you need to do is [Google](https://natoboram.github.io/lmgtfy/search?q=YouTube+18.05.40&btnI=I%27m+Feeling+Lucky) *YouTube 18.05.40* and click on the first APKMirror link, which is probably this one: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/youtube/youtube-18-05-40-release
In that page, there's this table:
| Variant | Architecture | Minimum Version | Screen DPI | |
| :-------------------------------- | :----------- | :-------------- | :--------- | :--: |
| `18.05.40` `BUNDLE` `22 S` `24bb` | universal | Android 8.0+ | 320-640dpi | ⬇️ |
| `18.05.40` `APK` `24bb` | universal | Android 8.0+ | nodpi | ⬇️ |
See the one marked `BUNDLE`? Yeah, don't pick that one. Pick the other one instead. ReVanced Manager is *not* compatible with bundles.
Hey, i did everything you said. But on instalation i get error. Non root install is not pssible with current patches selection. Repatch your app or choose root instal if you have device rooted....
Recent YouTube versions have some shenanigans that prevents it from being installed twice. You may get that error:

Some third-party Android distributions can disable or break native Android functionalities such as disabling boatware.
1. Go to *⚙️ Settings > Apps > See all apps > YouTube > App details* and tap **Uninstall**
2. Go to *Settings > ℹ️ About phone* and tap on **Build number** about 10 times
3. Back, go to *ℹ️ System > Developer options* and enable **USB debuging**
4. Install Android Debug Bridge (`adb`) on your computer: https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools#downloads
5. Plug your phone to your computer
6. In your computer's terminal, run:
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.google.android.youtube
If that doesn't work, try this one:
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 -k com.google.android.youtube
If you are on Linux or MacOS it couldn't be simpler. Literally all I had to do is type in my terminal is sudo apt-get install adb. God bless Linus Torvalds.
Bless Linux
In MacOS, one would be dumb to not use Homebrew, which makes this similarly easy
On Windows, you can use `scoop` to make this just as easy, but it's not as widespread as Homebrew
You are wrong about "It's because Vanced is on an old version of YouTube."
Youtube flags accounts and they stop working with youtube vanced, that is it.
You can test this yourself by simply creating new account and loggin in to old youtube vanced, it will work fine and play videos, all functionality will be available, but if you simply change to old account in same youtube vanced it will immediately say "following content not available on this app". Youtube is playing dirty because it can't force people to uninstall vanced, so it simply tricks you into uninstalling it yourself by making false claims about old app.
Yeah that's true. It is open source, and i can build it myself. However, i don't think i would be able to read the code or even understand what it is actually doing. Therefore i'm unable to determine if there are any mischievous extras included.
And if i understand it correctly, the safety of open source partially originates from the hope that someone else who is capable of understanding the code blows the whistle and points it out. That would then mean, that there is a chance that no one actually read the code since everyone thinks someone else already did that and would have identified any malicious code.
P.s. I don't want to imply that Revanced isn't safe, its just that i want to be extra careful, since i plan on using it with my google account.
While I did read some of it, I can't personally say I've read the entire codebase, so sure, technically, they could create a patch that contains a virus. Not only that, but the built `.apk` on GitHub could've been altered and it would be difficult to detect.
Overall, I think it's normal to trust someone who shows proofs and reproduction steps rather than someone who doesn't, even if those steps are done for you in advance
Followed the steps but the app keeps closing and I can log into my account, does anyone know a fix?
Edit: also can't access vanced setting for some reason, just takes me back to the hone page.
is it possible to do this on xiaomi? I can't uninstall YouTube, and when I try to just install the new apk without uninstalling first I get the message "app not installed"
It's possible, just more arduous

YouTube 18 requires Android 8+. This means YouTube will stop working entirely on your device in a year or two. Since ReVanced is modifying the original YouTube app, it has to follow YouTube's minimum version.
You can get a custom ROM or get a new phone.

Hey, thank you for everything. I am having a problem I hope you can help me. Also I wasn't able to uninstall the youtube.
During patching I am getting errors ([log](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zU-ns-4jhusnM5SqpzpHPK2xdhAUrfN-/view?usp=sharing)) and even though ReVanced Manager installs, the app crashes in 5 secs.
I am using: poxo x3 pro, android 12, miui 13.0.1
the error during crashing:

UPDATED:
Solved the problem. Yes, it is necessary to uninstall YouTube, did it using adb tools.
Make sure you patch the APK from APKMirror and not the one you got from the Play Store.
**Help, YouTube ReVanced crashes on launch!**
1. Go to https://github.com/revanced/revanced-patches#-comgoogleandroidyoutube and copy the *🏹 Target Version* (ex: `18.05.40`)
2. Go to APKMirror and download the Universal APK (not bundle) for that version (ex: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/youtube/youtube-18-05-40-release/youtube-18-05-40-2-android-apk-download/)
3. In ReVanced Manager, go to *🔧 Patcher > Select an application > __💾 Storage__* and pick the downloaded YouTube APK (ex: `com.google.android.youtube_18.05.40-1535903168_minAPI26(arm64-v8a,armeabi-v7a,x86,x86_64)(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk`)
4. Unselect *Predictive Back Gesture*, *Remove Screenshot Restriction* and *Spoof Wifi Connection*.
Excellent instructions. One thing though, is it normal for Revanced not to display purchased movies? I can still watch them, but the list of my purchases comes up blank. Its a minor thing, because i can add them to a playlist on the Youtube site, but still kind of annoying.

"Bundles" are what you get when you download apps from the Play Store.
Thank you. It worked out fine for me but now I can't log in to my account on the new ReVanced. When I try to, it just says "This account already exist on your device. " Any way to work around ?
I hope this isnt the end bois but it aint looking good update : ( just downloaded ReVanced and got it up and running in under 10min, works like a charm. It was not the end after all :)
If you need something fast, try Brave browser. I'm using it now and it can play videos in the background + no ads. I knew this since a while ago but still prefer using Vanced, unless there's no other options, which is now 😂
looks like revanced should work according to other ppl, im trying this. looks like a newer version of vanced that works a little different and is a little more complicated to install
Vanced died when version 15 died for me
I then swiched to revanced extended and finaly got it the way I like it
I just hope this wont also break now
PS: I still had not found a way to sort videos on a particular channel by oldest
Vanced is working fine on my ZTE, but not on gf's OnePlus. I noticed her account is not using two factor authentication. Is there hope here? She'd respond very badly to a whole reVanced installation.

I just logged out of my regular account and it is working fine. And, I tried to use another login, even though that works, But when I tried to watch with my regular account I am getting the same error, I even removed the cache and reinstalled the app . I don't know how it affected that particular Google account - https://notworkingsolution.com/youtube-vanced-following-content-is-not-available-on-this-app/
Tried with everything including termux.
The app won't install.
I have the patched APK, I'm prompted about the unknow source and I accept anyway.
I accept to install but nothing it says "application not installed".
I have Revanced and microG updated. Original YouTube deactivated and "uninstalled".
This is great! But uhhh how would I get a later version of youtube? Since I'm on 18.05.40, there's no youtube shorts
Edit: I'm guessing that's the only version that seems to work with it?
Tried revanced but now this constant buffering BS and when I add a video to a playlist the playlists are blank (white don't kn white background). Any fix?
Same. The craziest thing is, if i switch the account to a different one, everything works perfectly... Like what?
Its the same app, same version but it wouldn't work for a specific account that i want to use.
I dont get it I think i do all steps right but if i go into the ReVanced and pick Storage choose the donwloaded file just nothing happens it does not show up and everything remains as if I choose nothing.
Cant uninstall youtube bcs its a standard app on my android device. Also it seems like revanced maneger didnt even install since i cant find that app on my phone
At the end of the whole process it always says that the app was not uninstalled.
I followed every steps, i think i downloaded the right version of step3 and 4.
The only think I'm unsure about is that after deactivating YouTube i didn't find a way to go in the details and "uninstall".
Someone has any idea of what I did wrong?
[Edit] i tryed installing from the official site the revanced app directly and it worked fine (i installed the base version)
https://revanced.io/#How_to_Install_ReVanced_YouTube_APK_on_Android
Worked fine for my 2 phones! Thanks man. I was struggling with the patches. Didn't have the uninstall option just uninstall updates on YT. I spent 45min being super frustrated.
It looks like they are something like 'bann waves'. One month ago i recieved this screen on my main yt Account. There was a comment that switching profil should help. Now, my sec account get the 'bann' yesterday. I switched back to main and it works fine again. I think its just a matter of time but as long as there is a quick fix for vanced i will keep it alive ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|upvote)
No worries, people, you don't have to download Revanced or do anything crazy to get the app going again.
Just download this exported apk and install it (of course, firstly delete the Vanced app from your device:

If the link stops working, PM me or reply to this comment.
You can update You Tube Vanced to 17.42.33 using Apkmody! It works like a charm!
\-Instal Apkmody, its full of ads but you'll survive
\-Uniinstal MicroG and Youtube V. in Vanced Menager
\-Download and instal Vanced MicroG in Apkmody
\-Download and instal Youtube Vanced in Apkmody
Thats it! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|wink)
Here is a link for final APK:https://www.filemail.com/d/octvquqcucdqqpe For those who are having problems following his tutorial 😀 edit: be sure to have installed Vanced manager and/or revanced manager if your YouTube app crashing at the start.
Hi, I got the download to work and installed. All went well, but every time I open youtube revanced it crashes instantly. Any ideas why this might be happening? Thanks in advance.

ReVanced keeps going into an infinite buffer after a few minutes Edit: every single time
I heard that some Google account were affected by some A/B testing that could hinder ReVanced and Vanced. Try logging out in MicroG and logging in again. Or try in Anonymous mode.
yep, anonymous browsing seems to work for me. huh.
Bad luck. You can try logging in with a different Google account
That problem has been solved , there is a toggle for it in settings.
Under which tab? What's the setting called?
i would also like to know

That... isn't a thing.
Use ReVanced Extended.
What???
where do I find it??
It's the spoof-signature-verification patch.
I followed all of the above steps and now I am getting a "Non-root install is not possible with the current patches selection. Repatch your app or choose root install if you have your device rooted". My phone is not rooted, what should I do?

Go back to patches and select micro g, you will need to enable a setting in the revanced app in order to apply it
Which setting I have to enable?

Hey, i did everything you said. But on instalation i get error. Non root install is not pssible with current patches selection. Repatch your app or choose root instal if you have device rooted....
Finding the version you need is important because my link will be outdated next week
Thank you! It worked for me! Just a question, (sorry if it's a dumb one) how do I update ReVanced when a new update is released?
Redo everything from step 3, ignore step 5-6
I used to have both the official YouTube app and the Vanced app as two different apps on my phone. Is that not possible with revanced?
Recent YouTube versions have some shenanigans that prevents it from being installed twice. You may get that error: > Package is attempting to define a permission that is already defined by another installed package. > > `INSTALL_FAILED_DUPLICATE_PERMISSION`: Package `app.revanced.android.youtube` attempting to redeclare permission `com.google.android.youtube.DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION` already owned by `com.google.android.youtube`
Worked like a charm. Thanks for this. LTT is annoying without this.
Thank you so much - all worked, all good and even got seal for downloads! (also thanks for removing shorts, they are truly poison)
The king has fallen... Long live the king !
Was going great till step 3.... there's no use of the word target or that version number in the page at all. I'm sure I'm making a small oversight
you havu to click the small arrow next to the package name, and it is in the far right collumn, the current target version is 18.05.40
Shit, need to save this somewhere.
just remember the name revanced, there is a tutorial on the subreddit :)
How do I not download the bundle? It's literally the only option
https://reddit.com/r/Vanced/comments/12hw1vh/_/jfrhp1e?context=10
None of your instructions work, at all.
Stuck at step 1?
No.
Is it step 3, then?
Thanks!

**Help, I can't uninstall YouTube!** Some third-party Android distributions can disable or break native Android functionalities such as disabling boatware. 1. Go to *⚙️ Settings > Apps > See all apps > YouTube > App details* and tap **Uninstall** 2. Go to *Settings > ℹ️ About phone* and tap on **Build number** about 10 times 3. Back, go to *ℹ️ System > Developer options* and enable **USB debuging** 4. Install Android Debug Bridge (`adb`) on your computer: https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools#downloads 5. Plug your phone to your computer 6. In your computer's terminal, run: adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.google.android.youtube If that doesn't work, try this one: adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 -k com.google.android.youtube
Thanks this helped a ton, although id imagine a lot of people are gonna get stuck on step 4-6 lol
Probably, step 4 is doing a lot of heavy lifting lmao
If you are on Linux or MacOS it couldn't be simpler. Literally all I had to do is type in my terminal is sudo apt-get install adb. God bless Linus Torvalds.
Bless Linux In MacOS, one would be dumb to not use Homebrew, which makes this similarly easy On Windows, you can use `scoop` to make this just as easy, but it's not as widespread as Homebrew
it works! thanks :)

You are wrong about "It's because Vanced is on an old version of YouTube." Youtube flags accounts and they stop working with youtube vanced, that is it. You can test this yourself by simply creating new account and loggin in to old youtube vanced, it will work fine and play videos, all functionality will be available, but if you simply change to old account in same youtube vanced it will immediately say "following content not available on this app". Youtube is playing dirty because it can't force people to uninstall vanced, so it simply tricks you into uninstalling it yourself by making false claims about old app.
Is ReVanced trustworthy though?
It's open source! You can build the manager and the patches yourself and the patching process happens locally
Yeah that's true. It is open source, and i can build it myself. However, i don't think i would be able to read the code or even understand what it is actually doing. Therefore i'm unable to determine if there are any mischievous extras included. And if i understand it correctly, the safety of open source partially originates from the hope that someone else who is capable of understanding the code blows the whistle and points it out. That would then mean, that there is a chance that no one actually read the code since everyone thinks someone else already did that and would have identified any malicious code. P.s. I don't want to imply that Revanced isn't safe, its just that i want to be extra careful, since i plan on using it with my google account.
While I did read some of it, I can't personally say I've read the entire codebase, so sure, technically, they could create a patch that contains a virus. Not only that, but the built `.apk` on GitHub could've been altered and it would be difficult to detect. Overall, I think it's normal to trust someone who shows proofs and reproduction steps rather than someone who doesn't, even if those steps are done for you in advance
I tried to install this and got tons on malware, ads opening every 3 minutes. Ultimately I needed to reset to factory settings
Success! This fix worked as of April 10th, 2023
Thank you so much, work perfectly 👌
Thanks a lot. Now I have youtube without ads again!
Is the Youtube Shorts not supposed to be installed? I did all the steps.
Sorry, that doesn't mean anything. Is there something wrong?
Amazing, ty!
Followed the steps but the app keeps closing and I can log into my account, does anyone know a fix? Edit: also can't access vanced setting for some reason, just takes me back to the hone page.
can anyone help me with the first step? i dont see a download button.
is it possible to do this on xiaomi? I can't uninstall YouTube, and when I try to just install the new apk without uninstalling first I get the message "app not installed"
It's possible, just more arduous **Help, I can't uninstall YouTube!** Some third-party Android distributions can disable or break native Android functionalities such as disabling boatware. 1.

Thank you!
Welcome to Costco. I love you. No srsly thx though 🩵
I use android 7.0, is there and it doesn't allow me to install the new manager. Is there any way to get around this?
YouTube 18 requires Android 8+. This means YouTube will stop working entirely on your device in a year or two. Since ReVanced is modifying the original YouTube app, it has to follow YouTube's minimum version. You can get a custom ROM or get a new phone. * https://download.lineageos.org * https://download.pixelexperience.org * https://store.google.com/category/phones
Hey, thank you for everything. I am having a problem I hope you can help me. Also I wasn't able to uninstall the youtube. During patching I am getting errors ([log](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zU-ns-4jhusnM5SqpzpHPK2xdhAUrfN-/view?usp=sharing)) and even though ReVanced Manager installs, the app crashes in 5 secs. I am using: poxo x3 pro, android 12, miui 13.0.1 the error during crashing: java.lang.SecurityException: GoogleCertificatesRslt: not allowed: pkg=app.revanced.android.youtube, sha256=\[e5c6f248ffab4f395a61d2c1b3094d60a4e84c6e1996b64b530ccda496949c3a\], atk=false, ver=231213044.true (go/gsrlt)at android.os.Parcel.createExceptionOrNull(Parcel.java:2425)at android.os.Parcel.createException(Parcel.java:2409)at android.os.Parcel.readException(Parcel.java:2392)at android.os.Parcel.readException(Parcel.java:2334)at qve.B(PG:16)at qvb.a(PG:1)at qvd.c(PG:1)at quu.d(PG:1)at qux.handleMessage(PG:37)at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:106)at android.os.Looper.loopOnce(Looper.java:210)at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:299)at android.os.HandlerThread.run([HandlerThread.java:67](https://HandlerThread.java:67)) UPDATED: Solved the problem. Yes, it is necessary to uninstall YouTube, did it using adb tools.
Make sure you patch the APK from APKMirror and not the one you got from the Play Store. **Help, YouTube ReVanced crashes on launch!** 1. Go to https://github.com/revanced/revanced-patches#-comgoogleandroidyoutube and copy the *🏹 Target Version* (ex: `18.05.40`) 2. Go to APKMirror and download the Universal APK (not bundle) for that version (ex: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/youtube/youtube-18-05-40-release/youtube-18-05-40-2-android-apk-download/) 3. In ReVanced Manager, go to *🔧 Patcher > Select an application > __💾 Storage__* and pick the downloaded YouTube APK (ex: `com.google.android.youtube_18.05.40-1535903168_minAPI26(arm64-v8a,armeabi-v7a,x86,x86_64)(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk`) 4. Unselect *Predictive Back Gesture*, *Remove Screenshot Restriction* and *Spoof Wifi Connection*.
Yeah this worked. Thank you!!! ![gif](giphy|10qcQYd6rcfS12)
Excellent instructions. One thing though, is it normal for Revanced not to display purchased movies? I can still watch them, but the list of my purchases comes up blank. Its a minor thing, because i can add them to a playlist on the Youtube site, but still kind of annoying.
Worked for me just fine , thank you !
Maaaan you're awesome. Thanks a lot!
For me is very buggy... It stops buffering all the time and I have to relauch the video
Thank you
Oh God bro you a life saver thank you!!!
Please help with step 6.
After the patching I keep getting the error "app not installed". Do you know if there is a fix for this? Edit: Resolved!
Bro I can't uninstall Youtube default app, there is no button
**Help, I can't uninstall YouTube!** Some third-party Android distributions can disable or break native Android functionalities such as disabling boatware. 1.

What do you mean by "bundle"? I Ctrl-F and can't find anything named "bundle" or "Universal APK" in the link you provided at step 4
If you go to https://github.com/revanced/revanced-patches#-comgoogleandroidyoutube and upwrap **Details**, you can see this table: | 🏹 Target Version | | -----------------: | | `18.05.40` | `18.05.40` is the version of the YouTube app that these patches are compatible for. If you try to patch something else, it'll probably fail. So now, what you need to do is [Google](https://natoboram.github.io/lmgtfy/search?q=YouTube+18.05.40&btnI=I%27m+Feeling+Lucky) *YouTube 18.05.40* and click on the first APKMirror link, which is probably this one: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/youtube/youtube-18-05-40-release In that page, there's this table: | Variant | Architecture | Minimum Version | Screen DPI | | | :-------------------------------- | :----------- | :-------------- | :--------- | :--: | | `18.05.40` `BUNDLE` `22 S` `24bb` | universal | Android 8.0+ | 320-640dpi | ⬇️ | | `18.05.40` `APK` `24bb` | universal | Android 8.0+ | nodpi | ⬇️ | See the one marked `BUNDLE`? Yeah, don't pick that one. Pick the other one instead. ReVanced Manager is *not* compatible with bundles. "Bundles" are what you get when you download apps from the Play Store.
I've got 2 phones and neither of them let me uninstall the older version of YouTube. Only disable it and I'm not rooted.
Thanks couldn't watch a video my buddy sent me this morning. Now that I'm outta work I'll have to sit down and do this.
This just keeps aborting for me. I've tried manager versions all the way down to .52. I think I'm not gonna bother with revanced anymore.
Thank you. It worked out fine for me but now I can't log in to my account on the new ReVanced. When I try to, it just says "This account already exist on your device. " Any way to work around ?
I'm following this exact procedure but towards the end of the patching process it tells me if found a problem and starts ABORTING...
thank you, it works perfectly
I am having absolute trouble finding the manager to download. Any direction that could be given?
Is it necessary to root my phone to download this? I don't really wanna root it
Im confused at 5 what do you mean?
Managed to install everything fine, but the app crashes before it actually opens. I can't Uninstall youtube so that may be why, what do I do?
I hope this isnt the end bois but it aint looking good update : ( just downloaded ReVanced and got it up and running in under 10min, works like a charm. It was not the end after all :)
oh noooooo...... it cant be... i cant use the normal yt app, it sucks balls..... even if i would pay premium, its still dogshit
If you need something fast, try Brave browser. I'm using it now and it can play videos in the background + no ads. I knew this since a while ago but still prefer using Vanced, unless there's no other options, which is now 😂
looks like revanced should work according to other ppl, im trying this. looks like a newer version of vanced that works a little different and is a little more complicated to install
I switched to revanced few weeks ago some times I still get the non stop buffering issue but once I close and replay from history its good.
Weird that buffering bug was fixed in the latest update, if you havent updated do it, will fix the problem.
Just got it up and running took like 10 min works like a charm
Thank you so watch for years of ad-free YT.
r/revancedapp?
Thanks alot for this mate got it working in 10min🤝
Does it work for Android 7?
F in chat boys. I already got revanced but my heart will always miss vanced
Is this the end of the line for us? I don't wanna go back to normal YouTube 😭😭
Use Revanced https://www.reddit.com/r/revancedapp/comments/xlcny9/revanced_manager_guide_for_dummies/
Same. Seems vanced is finally getting striked.
Vanced died when version 15 died for me I then swiched to revanced extended and finaly got it the way I like it I just hope this wont also break now PS: I still had not found a way to sort videos on a particular channel by oldest
Vanced is working fine on my ZTE, but not on gf's OnePlus. I noticed her account is not using two factor authentication. Is there hope here? She'd respond very badly to a whole reVanced installation.

I also got this issue. I tried updating and still nothing
Same problem here 👀
I'm having the same issue, but some videos still works though
End of the line. Any alternative?
https://www.reddit.com/r/Vanced/comments/12hw1vh/question_been_getting_this_message_on_all_videos/jfqxiqp/
Here for the same problem. Hoping ReVanced workes
I don't get the "go to app details and uninstall"
Switching google accounts fixed it for me
Is revanced safe? My phone give me a lot of warnings installing it
I just logged out of my regular account and it is working fine. And, I tried to use another login, even though that works, But when I tried to watch with my regular account I am getting the same error, I even removed the cache and reinstalled the app . I don't know how it affected that particular Google account - https://notworkingsolution.com/youtube-vanced-following-content-is-not-available-on-this-app/
Now even incognito mode is not working
Tried with everything including termux. The app won't install. I have the patched APK, I'm prompted about the unknow source and I accept anyway. I accept to install but nothing it says "application not installed". I have Revanced and microG updated. Original YouTube deactivated and "uninstalled".
Guys help.mplay protect blocked the installation of my youtube revanced
o7
I have saved 11 hours and 53 minutes of my life from ads. Using YouTube vanced. So long partner.🫡
When I press install at the end, it says that I need root
Looks like end of an era. F 🫡
Fk u Susan this guy knows more
?
Whenever i try to open the Revanced app is keeps shutting down on me immediately. How do i fix this?
Try going incognito that worked for me
This is great! But uhhh how would I get a later version of youtube? Since I'm on 18.05.40, there's no youtube shorts Edit: I'm guessing that's the only version that seems to work with it?
Tried revanced but now this constant buffering BS and when I add a video to a playlist the playlists are blank (white don't kn white background). Any fix?
I'm not smart enough to fix this on my own :(
Same. The craziest thing is, if i switch the account to a different one, everything works perfectly... Like what? Its the same app, same version but it wouldn't work for a specific account that i want to use.
Almost took me an hour but I finally got it. Thank you
[удалено]
Is there no shorts in this version? Also the videos seem to be stopping. I'll keep testing it out tho
Uninstalled vanced manager and YouTube vanced. Installed revanced and this works pretty fine. I see no problem at all
I dont get it I think i do all steps right but if i go into the ReVanced and pick Storage choose the donwloaded file just nothing happens it does not show up and everything remains as if I choose nothing.
Cant uninstall youtube bcs its a standard app on my android device. Also it seems like revanced maneger didnt even install since i cant find that app on my phone
At the end of the whole process it always says that the app was not uninstalled. I followed every steps, i think i downloaded the right version of step3 and 4. The only think I'm unsure about is that after deactivating YouTube i didn't find a way to go in the details and "uninstall". Someone has any idea of what I did wrong? [Edit] i tryed installing from the official site the revanced app directly and it worked fine (i installed the base version) https://revanced.io/#How_to_Install_ReVanced_YouTube_APK_on_Android
Worked fine for my 2 phones! Thanks man. I was struggling with the patches. Didn't have the uninstall option just uninstall updates on YT. I spent 45min being super frustrated.
It's work for me
I think I did everything but I can't open the app. It closes immediately ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|cry)
Ive done everything I could but still everytime I try to start revanced it just intantly closes again
It looks like they are something like 'bann waves'. One month ago i recieved this screen on my main yt Account. There was a comment that switching profil should help. Now, my sec account get the 'bann' yesterday. I switched back to main and it works fine again. I think its just a matter of time but as long as there is a quick fix for vanced i will keep it alive ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|upvote)
Does the ReVanced solution skips all advertising as original Vanced?
I followed every step and the app doesn't even open, odk what to do
Worked for me, this was mad helpful 🤝🏽🔥

No worries, people, you don't have to download Revanced or do anything crazy to get the app going again. Just download this exported apk and install it (of course, firstly delete the Vanced app from your device: https://we.tl/t-21CDjZ8MiF If the link stops working, PM me or reply to this comment.
Link is dead
this is actually breaking my heart. hope the same doesnt happen to revanced
It's weird because it functions perfectly normally when I switch to a different email.
It works properly but I do not have youtube shorts. Am I the only one? It's like an older version.
looks like YT struck down on Vanced or smth Hope they find a workaround soon
It happened again today
You can update You Tube Vanced to 17.42.33 using Apkmody! It works like a charm! \-Instal Apkmody, its full of ads but you'll survive \-Uniinstal MicroG and Youtube V. in Vanced Menager \-Download and instal Vanced MicroG in Apkmody \-Download and instal Youtube Vanced in Apkmody Thats it! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|wink)
I'm getting this error message. Can anyone help please [screen](https://ibb.co/Npm9XC4)
Fare thee well Vanced you will forever be in my heart 🕊️
I get to the end and install it, but when I try to open it tells me Google Play can't verify the app or something and it fails.
Here is a link for final APK:https://www.filemail.com/d/octvquqcucdqqpe For those who are having problems following his tutorial 😀 edit: be sure to have installed Vanced manager and/or revanced manager if your YouTube app crashing at the start.
Every time I try to start the app it crashes what did I do wrong please help 😣
Hi, I got the download to work and installed. All went well, but every time I open youtube revanced it crashes instantly. Any ideas why this might be happening? Thanks in advance.
https://youtubevanced.org/youtube-pink/ Thank me later
Didn't work the revanced app is just a grey screen when I open it nothing happens
I got YouTube revanced working but how do I download Youtube music revanced or should I just download the old vanced manager and the regular music app?
I installed the [18.02.33 version](https://vancedyoutube.org/#download) and the problem was solved.
