This update brings our YouTube player’s usability to a whole new level. This update brings our YouTube player’s usability to a whole new level: we added background playback, recommended videos, quality settings, and much more. Not so unskippable now, are you, ads? On top of that, this version includes some nice fixes for overall app performance, including the Android TV version.
A ton of improvements for AdGuard’s YouTube player
Just look at what’s available now:
Change video quality, playback speed, and subtitle settings using the gear ⚙ button
Picture-in-Picture mode is now supported, which means you can shrink the video to a small window and keep playing it in the background while using other apps. Great for such things as listening to music or podcasts
View recommended videos at the end of the video or by pausing the video
Double-tap the right or left side of the screen to skip 10 seconds forward or back correspondingly
Quick reminder: to launch the AdGuard player, choose any video in the YouTube app, tap “Share” and select AdGuard Player (it’s likely that you will need to scroll right and tap “More” first).
