Tubular fork of newpipe works on AndroidTV, don't know if newpipe itself does but last time I checked it didn't. So I use it on both tv and phone.
Is its UI adapted to Android TV? Or does it look like on mobile?
Sadly it's not, and navigating around it takes a little bit of getting used to (trying to close a video for example is a somewhat counter intuitive). But I'll take it over adds in youtube. That being said, I used it sparsely, as I don't have much I want to watch there except play the odd song or maybe one or two other videos a week.
smarttube https://smarttubeapp.github.io/ for tv
yup that's what I'm using. Wanted to know about this alternative too :)
People allow their TV to connect to the interpipes? Tut tut, I thought y'all were better than that!
I just pay for YouTube premium family. We all get add free YouTube. Plus music which we all use. It's a great value and no hastle. More money goes to creators this way as well.
This is the right answer. If more people subscribed... Well, it wouldn't have to be this way.
