I just changed the DNS on my unrooted Android to AdGuard's, went into the YouTube and I still saw the ads. What am I missing?

- t0bia_s 3y agoYou need NewPipe for unbloated, distraction free YouTube on Android.
- danogentili 3y agoOr you could also install the Fennec browser, install the ublock extension, go to the desktop version of youtube and click on the install PWA button to install the mobile youtube PWA, which will be affected by ublock.
- RGBCube 3y agoThat's just a shortcut to youtube.com on Firefox/Fennec, ReVanced (revanced(dot)app) is a much better solution.
- danogentili 3y agoYeah but I really don't want to install any GMS-related stuff on my phone, not even microg, I don't want to have services hanging in the background wasting RAM just because I sometimes watch YouTube :)
- RGBCube 3y agoFair
- RGBCube 3y agoThe DNS can't block YouTube ads because then the whole of YouTube would be blocked. You should use ReVanced instead for this. (Or uBlock Origin in Firefox)
