Are there any safe, functional apps for iOS mobile devices (specifically iPhone, but iPad would be nice too) that let you use Youtube without ads? Something like what Youtube Revanced is for Android.

you can use the web version with adguard and it won’t show ads, though sometimes you have to refresh to get to the video

In the AppStore, search Vinegar. Works for me. 👍

Just FYI for anybody that looks it up, it appears to be a paid application.

does it open Youtube links from other apps? I don’t use iOS but I’ve been wondering how viable it is to recommend it to friends who do as a replacement for the Youtube app.

Turkey also works. $0.50/mo with family, no KYC required.

Does doing this fuck with your recommendations? Or open your account to being banned if you don’t continue accessing it from the subscribed country?

Well, normal YT premium is $14/mo, so $0.50 is practically piracy.

How? I want to do this but Google never allows me, something always breaks in the payment process

I have a friend who is sharing his Argentine account with me. How he pays I don’t really know. The important bit for me was to VPN to Arg before logging in. Maybe search in YouTube for instructions?

I can share with you a method to buy for Turkey.

  1. Make an account on the „FUPS” app. You will need a Turkish SIM to verify - 5sim.net is a very cheap option
  2. Buy a FUPS card from some online reseller. I’ve used this https://plati.io/itm/fups-card-turkish-card-for-psn-xbox-spotify/3565417
  3. Scan the card’s QR code in the FUPS app. You now can use the card to spend money from your FUPS account
  4. Use Revolut to convert money to Turkish liras, and use the „Card recipient” transfer option to add money to that account with basically 0 fees.

Now to buy a family subscription, I personally used an android virtual machine, on which, while connected to a Turkish VPN, I made a new account on a random Turkish address. Then just bought the sub in the YouTube app.

Afterwards, you can invite others to your family. But, they won’t be able to just join, they need to go to pay.google.com -> Settings -> Close payments profile

Then they need to add a CC to their account (doesn’t have to be Turkish), but make sure that they put a random Turkish billing address to that card. Wait ~10 minutes, and they can join the family, and after they’re in, they can re-do the google pay stuff to get it back to normal. Won’t kick them out.

Okay, FUPS might not work anymore. Check this page for other methods (I do realize the sub name sounds shady) https://old.reddit.com/r/make_money_online_vip/comments/14f6eim/how_to_get_turkish_vcc_detailed_guide_cheap/?rdt=38250
