How to use the ReVanced Manager app (non-root):

1. Download and install the ReVanced Manager app.

Important note: You need to uninstall or fully disable the apps you're patching. Go to the app info page on your phone's settings to fully disable any app.

2. Download an APK for the app you want to patch (such as YouTube, YouTube Music, TikTok, etc.) but DON'T INSTALL THE APP!! (Links from APKPure)

3. Open the ReVanced Manager app, click on Patcher, click on Select an application, click on Storage, and select the APK you want to patch.

4. Click Selected patches, and select the patches you want. You may click the Default button to automatically select some appropriate patches. When you're satisfied with the patch selection, click the Done button.

5. Click Patch.

⚠️ Don't exit the application before the patching is complete. ⚠️

6. When the patching process is complete, click Install, and you may open and use the patched application!

Important note: The GmsCore app is required to use a Google account with your patched applications. The latest download link is here.


Some troubleshooting:

App says I'm not connected to the internet, but I am!

Try signing-out, and then signing back in. Restarting your device can also solve this.

Patching fails with an error!

Make sure the ReVanved Manager app is up to date. You can download and install the latest version directly from the app (Dashboard>>Updates>>ReVanced Manager) or from the official website. Also, select the Default button when choosing patches.

My app crashes when I open it!

Make sure the version of the app you're trying to patch is the suggested. Also, select the Default button when choosing patches.

App not installed as package conflicts with an existing package!

Uninstall all other versions of the app from your device and try again.


FAQ:

What is ReVanced?

ReVanced is a modular patcher for apps such as YouTube. This project was born out of Vanced's discontinuation and its goal is to continue the legacy of what Vanced left.

How does ReVanced work?

ReVanced does not distribute any proprietary file but instead provides open-source patches. Patches can be created for any Android app. The ReVanced Manager will use the patcher as its core to apply patches of your choice on your desired app. On rooted devices, ReVanced can mount the patched app over the original application. On non-rooted devices, ReVanced will install it under a different package name.

Does ReVanced support non-rooted devices?

Yes! ReVanced supports non-root and rooted devices.

Does or will ReVanced have feature X?

Currently, the focus is shifted toward fine-tuning existing features, but features can be picked up by anyone. Your contributions are also very welcome.

How can I help?

ReVanced is an open-source project and depends on outside help, you can always check out the GitHub repositories and contribute to ReVanced by creating an issue or pull requests.

Does ReVanced always stay up to date with YouTube?

Unlike Vanced, ReVanced can apply patches to any version of the app. This way, you can use patches on newer or older versions and are independent of newer manager releases. (Sometimes patches can break and will need updates. Check the documentation on what versions ReVanced is mainly targeting)

Does ReVanced support Music?

Yes. Patches have been created for YouTube Music and can be created for any other app.

How can I support the project?

ReVanced is heavily in development. If you have a problem and need help, please include all relevant information regarding your issue in a new post. That includes information such as when the issue occurred, how it occurred, how the issue can be reproduced, your environment, versions of the tools you used, images and recordings, and your own tests.

Is ReVanced affiliated with Vanced?

ReVanced is not affiliated with Vanced.

Where is everyone downloading their Revanced compatible APK files?
The traditional websites (apkmirror etc) have started using propitiatory APK Bundles for the downloads. As far as I can tell, these are incompatible with Revanced.

there's a bug with the current patches where live streams won't play in the background. if I download an older version of the APK, it'll only let me apply like two or three patches.

how do I get the patches for an older version?

that's it. background play works on everything else, they're don't appear to be separate settings for background play for streams versus videos as far as I can find. and it used to

so I've got a Google pixel 6, and a Google pixel 8. I exported the settings from revanced on the 6 and sent them to the 8. I've double checked that background play is turned on for everything, but background play doesn't work for live streams on my Google pixel 8. background play still works for normal videos, and the background play works for live streams on my Google pixel 6.

is there a setting I'm missing?

ReVanced Manager lists a bunch of apps but it's only package names if you don't already have the app installed.

Non rooted.

Rvm version 1.20.1

Yt is recommended version, 19.11.43

Latest microg with all permissions given.

Patched the apk with only the standard patches, installed, and it ran perfectly for two days. Last night it started this buffering issue and it's driving me mad.

I've cleared data, reinstalled, repatched, toggled spoofing using every version available to spoof. Restarted phone even. I went through and gave microg every permission I could, though I couldn't figure out how to turn on spoofing for it.

Yet this issue remains.

My family isn't tech savvy, though they can figure out how to side load an apk. So I have them running microg and this same YT patched apk that I've generated. They are all running fine. It's only me with the problem thus far.

Is anyone experiencing this? Am I doing something wrong? Missing something? Or just bad luck? Thanks.

This comes up everytime I open vanced. I've followed the link and started to follow the instructions but I don't have that app installed (under that name) so I cannot disable the optimizations. I'm pretty sure I did install it but it's not listed in apps.

My youtube revanced has just stop working and everytime I try to play a video, I get a message saying the content isn't available because the version of YouTube is outdated. I've gone down the rabbit hole a little and can't figure out what to do. I have Uninstaller and reinstalled ReVanced with the latest apk and installed the microG support, but nothing has helped. I even went to trying ReVanced extended and get the same problem.

All ~~roads~~ videos lead here:

Honestly I'm surprised it took this long. The only other issue I've ever seen (between revanced and the original vanced app) is the watch history not saving a couple weeks back.

Yesterday I noticed I was seeing community posts showing up in the subscription feed and the home feed even though I have both turned off in the settings.

Has anyone else seen this, worked around or fixed this?

The past couple of versions i have used would only allow me to open the comments of YT Shorts one time, then it would load blank any time after until I fully closed the app.

My current version, 19.04.37 Non-root, will some times open a YT Short immediately when the app opens, and i have to quickly hit Home before it loads... Else the app will close when trying to go back.

So, I'm curious if others have had similar issues as well? And does each patch have its own quirks like these?

  1. Download YouTube version 19.04.37.
  2. Open ReVanced Manager and select YouTube 19.04.37 in the storage option.
  3. Confirm the patch version 4.3.0 and then press "Patch."
  4. Click on "install and update."

After reopening the patched YouTube, the watch history should be working again.

History doesn't seem to work on vanced on all my devices, it only updates on the regular youtube app.

It does keep track of liked vids tho, just that it shows I haven't watched them.

The patch said any version was supported so I just went with the latest. If it's working for you, what version are you using?

While listening to music with the app in the background, it will randomly sign me out after a few minutes. When I open the app again, it will tell me to check my Internet connection, pushing past the pop up it'll let me in but have me signed out. After signing back in it will do it again after a few minutes. Sorry if this has already been asked, having trouble searching lemmy posts for a similar thread.

Basically, the title. I've used revanced to patch YouTube and Reddit's app. YouTube only seems to work if I install as root. Reddit's app only seems to work if I don't use root. Wondering why that is.

I can't find how to make revanced a default app, and clicking on YouTube links always opens the legit app, which is annoying
