Hey did you know with certain add-ons, you don't need YouTube premium? Just like back in the day when YouTube was just YouTube..
That's fine and easy on desktop/web browser, but for mobile devices it is not quite as easy. You would either need to use a hacked version of the app or a third party app.
On my phone, I just access YouTube through the firefox browser app with ublock origin installed. Works perfectly.
Or use NewPipe if you don't need to sync with your Google account.
Firefox browser w/ublock = YouTube with no ads.
I actually just have YouTube app disabled.
~~Hacked~~ improved with Revanced
On mobile, I don’t use the app. I use safari + youtube.com with vinegar app and adguard.
No ads plus I get PIP. Quality is a hit or miss but idc about that.
I can recommend Unwatched wholeheartedly, great developer, but I only use yt for subs not algorithm
