Since YouTube doesn’t play videos in the background so here are some amazing Android apps that can play YouTube video in the background and also provides downloading feature.
This Android app used to play YouTube videos in the background which is better than any other app out there. I don’t like the types of apps that display Ads that they are not meant to do. I mean apps like ShareIt. These apps are bloat-free, and spam-free, and do not promote users to download and view unwanted videos. I have tried all the apps below which were suggested on Reddit and are awesome.
It is one of the modified third-party YouTube applications for Android with a built-in adblocker It was originally called iYTBP meaning injected YouTube Background Playback but now it is renamed YouTube Vanced. It has features like background play & free picture-in-picture playback. App also has the ability to block YouTube ads and allow you to watch videos at max resolution irrespective of your device screen resolution. It also has swipe controls for changing volume and brightness.
You cannot easily install YouTube Vanced like other android apps so they developed Vanced Manager from where required apps can be installed. To install YouTube Vanced you first need to install Vanced Manger. Vanced Manager gives you two options for installation; first without root and second with using root.
Using the root method you can replace your default YouTube app with this YouTube Vanced. If you want your default YouTube app on your phone and YouTube Vanced separately then you used the non-root method for YouTube Vanced installed for this you need to install one extra app called MicroG for Vanced. MicroG for Vanced allows you to log in to YouTube Vanced without it you can’t do so in the non-root method.
So make sure before you are installing Youtube Vanced from Vanced Manager using a non-root user then you need to install MicroG otherwise it will give an error while installing to do so.
