The popular vanced YouTube app is being discontinued. Users say they’ve had to discontinue the project’due to legal reasons’.
In the coming days, the download links on the website will be taken down. We know this is not something you wanted to hear but it’s something we need to do.
Vanced is a popular third-party YouTube app for Android. It allows YouTube users to block all video ads on YouTube without a premium subscription. vanced also includes a true black theme, and customizations not offered in the official YouTube for Android app.
Google-Owned YouTube forced two popular discord music bots offline last year, before starting to test ad-supported YouTube integration into discord just weeks later. The popular Rythm and groovy music bots also avoided ads on the service, allowing discord users to listen to music together.
‘we know this is not something you wanted to hear, but it’s something we need to do’. We’ve reached out to Google to comment on the discontinuation of vanced.
In the coming days, the download links will be taken down. The discord server, Telegram chat and subreddit will stay for the time being.
The existing version will continue to work. It was done due to’legal reasons’. The original version will still work again.
