Almost everyone enjoys a YouTube video every now and then.

And everyone single of those is annoyed by YouTube ads.

But not everyone wants to pay to get rid of them.

I’m one of them.

Good (old) news for Android users

May I introduce: NewPipe.

With this open source app (available for free) you can watch YouTube videos without ads, while having all the useful features such as speed control, playlists, background playback and much more.

You can also import your YouTube channel subscriptions.

Besides videos, you can also stream SoundCloud and Bandcamp music, but consider to somehow support these artists if you really like their music.

Hi, I’m Beat Schenkel — I’m developing websites since the early and infamous Internet Explorer 6 era, long before smartphones entered the game.
