A libre lightweight streaming front-end for Android.

Do you like watching videos on YouTube but looking for a simple app to do that?
NewPipe has been created with the purpose of getting the original YouTube experience on your smartphone without annoying ads and questionable permissions.

Lightweight YouTube frontend that’s supposed to be used without the proprietary YouTube-API or any of Google’s (proprietary) play-services. NewPipe only parses the YouTube website in order to gain the information it needs.

NewPipe works by fetching the required data from the official API (e.g. PeerTube) of the service you’re using. If the official API is restricted (e.g. YouTube) for our purposes, or is proprietary, the app parses the website or uses an internal API instead. This means that you don’t need an account on any service to use NewPipe.

Also, since they are free and open source software, neither the app nor the Extractor use any proprietary libraries or frameworks, such as Google Play Services. This means you can use NewPipe on devices or custom ROMs that do not have Google apps installed.

Features
● Watch videos at resolutions up to 4K
● Listen to audio in the background, only loading the audio stream to save data

● Browse video feeds generated from your channel groups
● View and search your watch history
● Search and watch playlists (these are remote playlists, which means they’re fetched from the service you’re browsing)
● Create and edit local playlists (these are created and saved within the app, and have nothing to do with any service)
● Download videos/audios/subtitles (closed captions)
● Open in Kodi
● Watch/Block age-restricted material
