• Customize the background color of Dark/Light theme. (Colour Options)

• And many more...

2. iSponsorBlock: Skips annoying sponsor ads inside videos. iSponsorBlock is based on SponsorBlock engine. Basically, this is the iOS version of the SponsorBlock extension.

and many more...!

6. YTClassicVideoQuality: since YouTube v16.xx, you need one more step to change the video quality. YTClassicVideoQuality brings back the old video quality selector, which is a lot better than the new one.

7. YTNoHoverCards: offer an option to enable/disable the annoying suggested videos show up at the end of the videos.

8. YTABGoodies: allow you to disable some YouTube A/B testing features. It is a combination of several tweaks, such as:

• YTNoCheckLocalNetwork: block the Local Network permission popup.

16. YTNoCommunityPosts: this can disable all the Community Posts on the YouTube app.

17. LowContrastMode: makes the YouTube Interface Low Contrast as possible to make it easier on the eyes.

any many more...

Known issues

1. YouTube Reborn:

• Downloading videos/audio not working. (probably a Client-Side change, don't know why this happened.)

2. LowContrastMode: this tweak doesn't work correctly with the ui if you use v17.39.4 or later versions of the YouTube App. [WORKAROUND - go to Settings > YouTubeRebornPlus > Miscellaneous > Enable App Version Spoofer and go to Version Spoofer Picker and select v17.38.10]

3. YTClassicVideoQuality: this tweak that shows the old video quality menu has stopped working on v18.19.1 or later versions of the YouTube App.

4. YTUHD: Stuttering on 4K videos.

5. YouPiP (iOS 14.0 - 14.4.2): due to Apple's fault, you may encounter the speedup-bug as described here. The bug also happens when you try to play multi-sources of sound at the same time. Enable LegacyPiP is a workaround. Keep in mind that LegacyPiP also removes UHD quality and breaks YouTube Autoplay next. Use it at your own risk!

6. Not a bug:

• The app won't be able to receive push notifications if you use a free developer account to sideload it.

• It's impossible to fix deep-link (a.k.a Open in the YouTube app). However, you can use this Shortcuts as a workaround (tested on iOS 14). Credit: RandomAccessMemories#5025
