Tubular is an Android YouTube front-end client forked from NewPipe that adds SponsorBlock segment skipping and Return YouTube Dislike counts. The project has been discontinued and its README points users to alternatives like PipePipe and Morphe.

Use cases

  • watch youtube on android without the official app
  • skip sponsor segments in youtube videos
  • see youtube dislike counts on mobile
  • background play youtube videos without ads
  • privacy-friendly youtube client for android

When to avoid

  • you want a maintained app with ongoing bug fixes
  • you need support for recent YouTube changes
  • you want an actively developed fork - use PipePipe or Morphe instead
