How to watch YouTube without ads on Android, iPhone, Chrome and PC

Show

Every way that works in 2026, and what each one costs. .

The short answer: on an Android phone, the easiest way to watch YouTube without ads is an ad-free YouTube app. Install the AdFreeTube APK, open it, and every video, song and Short plays with no ads before or during it, even with the screen off. On a computer, a browser ad blocker does the job.

YouTube without ads on Android

Install the AdFreeTube APK: download it below, allow "Install unknown apps" for your browser, then tap Install. Videos, music and Shorts play with no ads and keep going with the screen off. Android 7.0+.

Download for Android

YouTube without ads APK

AdFreeTube is a ready-to-install YouTube without ads APK for phones, tablets, Android TV, Google TV and car screens (~24 MB). Only install it from this site: modded YouTube APKs from unknown sites can carry malware.

YouTube without ads on iPhone

Download the AdFreeTube .ipa and install it with AltStore or Sideloadly. Same ad-free player, Shorts, playlists and background music. There is an Apple TV version too.

YouTube without ads cost

YouTube Premium removes ads for a monthly fee. AdFreeTube is $10 once for one device forever, or $15 for 4 devices. No subscription, nothing renews.

See plans

YouTube without ads in Chrome

On a computer, add an ad blocker extension from the Chrome Web Store. Chrome on Android has no extensions, so on your phone use an ad-free app like AdFreeTube instead.

YouTube without ads on PC

Use a browser that blocks ads, such as Brave, or Firefox with uBlock Origin. Free desktop apps like FreeTube also work on Windows, Mac and Linux.

Watch YouTube without ads by changing the URL

The old trick of adding a dot after .com (youtube.com./watch?v=…) went viral, but YouTube blocked it and it no longer works reliably. An app or a browser blocker is the dependable way.

YouTube without ads website, free

Free YouTube front-end websites such as Invidious exist, but public servers often go down or run slowly. Free and open-source NewPipe works on Android. For a TV or car, a dedicated app is more reliable.

YouTube without ads on Android TV

Install the AdFreeTube APK on Android TV or Google TV (Sony, TCL, Hisense, Philips, Chromecast with Google TV). A remote-friendly app with big cards and no ads before or during videos. On Apple TV, use the AdFreeTube tvOS app.

TV setup

Ad-free YouTube browser

Brave blocks YouTube ads on Android, iPhone and desktop for free, and Firefox for Android supports uBlock Origin. A browser can't play with the screen off as reliably as an app, and it doesn't run on a TV.

YouTube no ads extension & ad blocker for Chrome

On a computer, an ad blocker extension from the Chrome Web Store removes YouTube ads. YouTube regularly fights blockers, so keep the extension updated. Extensions don't work in Chrome on phones.

YouTube ad skipper

Ad skipper extensions click “Skip” or speed past ads for you, but the ad still loads first. An ad-free app like AdFreeTube never loads the ad at all, so there's nothing to skip.

How to block ads on YouTube on mobile

On Android: install an ad-free YouTube app (AdFreeTube or the free NewPipe). On iPhone: install AdFreeTube for iOS, or use Brave. YouTube Premium is the official paid way on both.

Download

Third-party YouTube app

A third-party YouTube app plays YouTube videos in its own player, without YouTube's ads. AdFreeTube, NewPipe and FreeTube are third-party apps. Only download them from their official websites.

Best ad-free YouTube app for Android (2026)

Show

AdFreeTube, NewPipe, ReVanced, Vanced and “YouTube Premium APK” downloads: what each one really is.

The short answer: for an easy, ad-free YouTube app that also works on iPhone, Android TV, Apple TV and in the car, choose AdFreeTube. For a free Android-only option, choose NewPipe. YouTube Vanced was discontinued in 2022, and “YouTube Premium APK” files are unofficial copies to avoid.

AdFreeTube

Ad-free YouTube app for Android, iPhone, Android TV, Apple TV and car screens. Background play, up to 4K, Shorts with no sponsored clips, auto-translate. Simple APK / IPA install, no Google account needed. $10 once (1 device) or $15 (4 devices).

NewPipe

Free, open-source Android app with no ads and background play. No iPhone version, and the TV experience is limited. A good free choice on an Android phone.

ReVanced

The open-source project that patches the official YouTube app to remove ads, installed with ReVanced Manager. Free, but setup takes several steps and patches can break when YouTube updates. Download only from ReVanced's official GitHub.

YouTube Vanced

Vanced was the most popular ad-free YouTube app until its developers shut it down in 2022. It no longer gets updates, so old Vanced APKs from “app store” or mirror sites stop working over time and may be unsafe. AdFreeTube and ReVanced are today's alternatives.

“YouTube Premium APK”, Black YouTube, YouTube Lite APK

Downloads with these names are usually unofficial, modified copies of YouTube from unknown sites. They don't give you a real Premium account, often stop working, and can carry malware. Avoid them, and never enter your Google password into one.

YouTube Premium

YouTube's official ad-free subscription, billed monthly (with family and student plans). It also includes YouTube Music Premium. The right choice if you want ad-free YouTube from Google itself and don't mind paying every month.

Questions about YouTube without ads

Show

What is AdFreeTube (Ad Free Tube)?

AdFreeTube is an ad-free YouTube app for Android and iOS. Watch YouTube videos, music and Shorts with no ads, play in the background with the screen off, and use it on Android TV, Apple TV and in your car.

How much does it cost?

$10 unlocks one device forever and includes a CD key. $15 unlocks 4 devices forever and includes 4 CD keys. Paid once with PayPal, no subscription and nothing renews by itself.

Do I need a Google account?

No. Everything works signed out. Signing in is optional and only adds your YouTube history and likes.

A video won't play. What now?

YouTube sometimes slows down a home connection. AdFreeTube switches to YouTube's own page by itself. If it still won't start, unplug the router for one minute and tap Try again.

Does it drain my battery?

The app loads rows only when you scroll to them and remembers results for 3 hours, so it asks YouTube for much less.

How do I watch YouTube without ads on Android?

Download the AdFreeTube APK from this page, allow "Install unknown apps" for your browser, open the file and tap Install. Every video, song and Short then plays with no ads, even with the screen off.

Is it safe to install a YouTube without ads APK?

Only install it from the official site. AdFreeTube is a standalone app, not a modified copy of YouTube, and it never asks for your Google password: sign-in is optional and happens on Google's own page.

Is it on Google Play?

Not yet. Install the APK from this site. Updates install over the old version and keep your plan.

What is the best ad-free YouTube app for Android?

AdFreeTube is an easy all-in-one choice: no ads, background play, up to 4K, and versions for iPhone, Android TV, Apple TV and car screens, for $10 once. NewPipe is a good free, Android-only alternative.

Is YouTube Vanced still working?

No. YouTube Vanced was discontinued in 2022 and gets no updates, so old Vanced APKs stop working over time and may be unsafe. Current alternatives are AdFreeTube, NewPipe and ReVanced.

What is ReVanced?

ReVanced is an open-source project that patches the official YouTube app to remove ads, installed with ReVanced Manager. It is free but takes several setup steps and can break after YouTube updates. AdFreeTube is a ready-made app with no patching.

Is a free "YouTube Premium APK" safe?

Usually not. Files sold or shared as "YouTube Premium APK", "Black YouTube" or "YouTube Lite APK" are unofficial modified copies from unknown sites. They don't give you a real Premium account and can contain malware.

How do I watch YouTube without ads on Android TV?

Install the AdFreeTube APK on your Android TV or Google TV. It has a remote-friendly interface and plays videos with no ads. On Apple TV, use the AdFreeTube tvOS app.
