## What it is
YouTube Plus (formerly YTLite) is a jailbreak tweak for iOS that enhances the YouTube app with over a hundred customizable options. It adds features like video/audio downloads, SponsorBlock integration, interface customization, and player settings.

## Use cases
- download youtube videos and audio on ios
- skip sponsored segments in youtube
- customize youtube app interface on iphone
- enable oled dark mode in youtube
- set default video quality and audio track
- reorder youtube tabs and remove feed elements
- build a modified youtube app via github actions

## When to choose
- you have a jailbroken iOS device or want to sideload a tweaked YouTube app
- you want SponsorBlock and download features built into the official YouTube app
- you want fine-grained control over YouTube's UI and player behavior

## When to avoid
- you use a non-jailbroken device and cannot sideload tweaked IPAs
- you need a legal, ToS-compliant YouTube experience
- you want an Android YouTube enhancer (this is iOS-only)
- you require a fully free tool (versions after 5.2 require a subscription)
