YouTube Vanced was a very popular hacked alternative of the official YouTube app, having features like ad-free playback, background play, and skip sponsor. But owing to some legal action, the project has been officially shut down, and official downloads no longer exist. There are many third-party websites that claim to offer YouTube Vanced APKs, but downloading them from unreliable sources can compromise security in the form of malware and possible data theft. Rather, use ReVanced, a fan-made successor with continued support to provide the same features with constant updates. For installing ReVanced, get the ReVanced Manager on its official GitHub page, employ it to patch an appropriate YouTube APK, and install it by hand. Install Vanced MicroG if you require Google account login support too. Always seek out trusted resources and never try from unofficial pages for a clean and secure setup.
