Before you say it: I do use Adblock on my computer but sometimes YouTube updates their site to make those not work, and sometimes I browse on my phone which doesn’t have Adblock

I don’t know how, my phone is old-ish and almost out of storage space, and I’d like to replace it with a new phone when I can decide on what suits my needs and I can splurge the money on it

Edit: also, most of the time I can just refresh the page on my phone and the pre-video ad on YouTube goes away. This doesn’t work for mid-video ads, which I just got in the middle of a song on YouTube 🙃

If you're on android, revanced is pretty easy to get up and running, it takes the place of the YouTube app you already have installed so no worries about your limited storage space either

I’m on an iPhone SE right now. Android with Revanced/~~Graphite~~ Graphene was one option I was considering since I’m kind of sick of Apple (all my previous devices were Apple brand gifts), but I don’t know how well Android functions to store and play music files like Apple does. I’d also like a good quality camera, but I don’t need one that is absurdly high quality.

On my phone, I actually play YouTube on the web browser rather than in the app because that allows me to refresh the page and bypass the pre-video ad.

I appreciate everyone’s advice and tech knowhow.

I have an iPhone SE too! Ublock Origin LTE is now on the app store so you can add it to Safari if your software allows it.
