### 1/5 — REFUND NEEDED

*2026-06-04, version 3.2*

So this app basically does nothing that it promised to do and I need a refund

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-02-25, version 3.2*

This app is exactly what I wanted and hoped for. It allows me to play hours of peaceful soothing music for my senior cat with health problems, and he can just relax and bliss out without startling blaring commercials interjecting into his experience. His very favorite song from YouTube is not purchasable anywhere, so this app is a blessing for me.

### 1/5 — Multiple glitches, doesn’t work as expected, not worth the buy

*2026-02-02, version 3.1*

Update: heard back from the developer. Basically denying everything and arguing against this review. It’s really not worth paying 3 dollars to have this waste of time on your phone.

I downloaded this app to get around annoying ad breaks. The PiP shuts down the app. Videos load with 4 second delay and often lose sound, app enlarges YT so some of the controls are cut off at the top of the video, app automatically opens random videos without selecting them.  So many glitches, don’t buy.

### 1/5 — Multiple glitches, doesn’t work as expected, not worth the buy

*2026-01-30*

I downloaded this app to get around annoying ad breaks. The PiP shuts down the app. Videos load with 4 second delay and often lose sound, app enlarges YT so some of the controls are cut off at the top of the video, app automatically opens random videos without selecting them.  So many glitches, don’t buy.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your comment. We’d like to clarify a few points that may help you better understand how the app works 👇

We tried to reproduce what you mentioned, and based on our testing, we were unable to replicate the behaviors you described. It seems that the issue may be that the required actions to activate the features weren’t performed. Below, we explain how to use them correctly.

Our app currently offers two playback modes:

⸻

1️⃣ Main Playback Mode

As soon as you open the app, you can search for and play any video with advanced features such as PIP mode (floating window), background playback, sleep timer, and many more.
In this mode, videos do not autoplay and are always viewed ad-free.

First, you need to activate floating playback by following these steps:

– FLOATING PLAYBACK (PIP MODE)
1️⃣ Enter full screen and tap the PIP button (second icon in the top-left corner).
2️⃣ The video will shrink into a floating window inside FyTube.
3️⃣ Swipe up from the bottom to leave the FyTube app — the video will remain visible.
4️⃣ Done! Floating mode is active, and you can use any app while your video continues playing on top of the screen.

– BACKGROUND / LOCKED SCREEN PLAYBACK
1️⃣ Activate floating mode.
2️⃣ With the video floating over your apps, lock your screen.
3️⃣ Done! The audio will continue playing in the background.

If you need help with this or any other point, please send us a screenshot to 📩 info@fydub.com

⸻

2️⃣ Alternative Player

This player also provides a 100% ad-free experience, but it is designed for faster navigation, which is why videos autoplay as you scroll.

We appreciate your comment and truly value that you shared it. We have already forwarded this observation to our development team so they can evaluate the best way to improve the experience and address what you consider an inconvenience.

We’re excited to introduce 🚀 FyTube 3.1 — the ad-free YouTube experience you already love, now even better!

✨ What’s new:
• New PIP Mode (Picture-in-Picture): watch videos in a floating window while using other apps.
• Background playback: listen with the screen locked or while multitasking.
• Sleep Timer: perfect for falling asleep to music or podcasts — the video stops automatically.
• Auto Repeat: loop your favorite videos.
• VoiceOver improvements: better accessibility for visually impaired users.
• Smart Search with auto suggestions: find videos faster.
• Video History: rewatch videos you’ve already seen, search by title or date, and delete by swiping left.
• Alternative player: accessible from the top-right corner of the search view (you can even sign in with your YouTube account!).
• And best of all: FyTube remains 100% ad-free.

🙌 We hope you’ll consider updating your rating after reviewing all of this — it would help us tremendously if you could verify and confirm that everything works correctly. Your feedback motivates our team to keep improving so you can enjoy your videos without ads.

Thank you for being part of the FyTube community!

### 1/5 — Use the Brave Browser

*2026-01-13, version 3.1*

What a waste of money on such a trash UI. Better off using Brave browser to block ads free with a better UI. I can’t believe anyone would ask money for this.

### 1/5 — Waste of Money

*2026-01-06, version 3.1*

Don’t bother, YT won’t let you watch anything without signing in, which you can’t do via FyTube.

### 1/5 — Auto opening videos

*2026-01-04, version 3.1*

FYTube keeps auto-opening videos while I’m scrolling. Also, when the page loads it automatically opens the top video and forces it into full screen by itself. This is really disruptive and makes the app hard to use. Please add a setting to disable autoplay/auto-fullscreen.

### 5/5 — Excelente

*2025-12-24*

Melhor do que o próprio aplicativo oficial do YouTube que é cheio de anúncios!

**Developer response:** Obrigado por reservar um tempo para deixar seu comentário! Seu feedback é muito importante para nós.
Esperamos que você continue aproveitando seus vídeos do YouTube sem anúncios com o FyTube!!

Atenciosamente,
— Equipe FyTube
