Это лучшее приложение на моём телефоне!

Пользуюсь приложением почти год. Очень сильно признателен его создателю! Только оно спасает меня от думСкроллинга: ведь я, как человек никогда не стдевший в тик-токе и инсте, не имеющий аккаунтов в вк и фб, - абсолютно беззащитен перед шортс’ами.

Funktioniert perfekt

Es tut genau das was es soll - nämlich YouTube Shots entfernen. Und das ist einfach toll, weil wirklich nur noch das wesentliche angezeigt wird, was man wirklich braucht.
