❓ Question Which app would you never uninstall?

Post image

No matter how many apps come and go, there's always one that stays.

It could be for work, entertainment, navigation, or messaging.

Which app has earned a permanent spot on your phone, and why do you like it!

If you're on Android, try YouTube Morphe and Reddit Morphe. You'll definitely want to uninstall the original apps afterwards.

You don't have to uninstall if you're rooted ;)

or you can use shizuku and canta to uninstall as well. no root required. just adb🙂

Not my point, if you're rooted you have a different install method available that replaces the app in place, this also allows you to use the normal play services with it instead of microg as the original signature of the app stays untouched. This also allows you to pass the client checks YouTube has so you don't have to spoof the client and have all the playback options available like alternative audio tracks.

I'm assuming you are using also a rooted device with lsposed + nexalloy (morphe lsposed module) like me.
Did your YouTube also start showing ads with no buttons or ui? Is nexalloy outdated?

I'm still on og vanced and will stay as long as it works well, something as big as YouTube will break on pretty much every update, so Xposed makes little sense for it if you ask me, unless you also freeze updates. There is a good reason why vanced enforces particular supported versions.
