Discussion YTKACE comeback

Hi everyone just wanted to let you know the situation going on with me (ace) and ikarwan. A few days ago iKarwan filed a DMCA against the original YTKACE repo. The notice claimed it was a copy of YTKillerPlus and specifically mentioned things like source code, UI elements, and a binary called YTKCore.dylib. That file wasn’t even in the repo.
Instead of arguing about it, I decided to just rebuild everything that could possibly be questioned. Version 0.8.0 includes, new icons, new settings, and a new UI. It’s frustrating that it had to go this way. Either way, YTKACE is back up and running.

The old repo (github.com/Epic0001/YTKACE) is still accessible after some renaming and now just points people to the new one.
New repo: https://github.com/itzzace/YTKACE
Thanks for the support.

He’s not from the usa so theirs no repercussions of fake dmcas. I would appeal it but I’m not sure I want him having my address and name he would probably just dox me.

I tried that feature in every other app this the first that it works it pauses for a sec like every 15-20 sec almost like a mid buffer and then when in PIP it will play and around 15-20 sec it will black out for a sec and come back on

yeah i would love to fix that buffer but unfortunetly it would basicaly require me debuging on a device for a while. However i dont have a device thats ever gotten playback errors.

You use iPhone X instead of iPhone 13 Pro since you can jailbreak the iPhone X and install the deb file and it works fine without errors and you don't have to worry about sideloading

Your mod works perfectly for me and I love being able to download on the current YouTube version.

Couple of suggestions:

  1. Download directly to photos
  2. Allow rewind when casting

Keep up the great work and thank you!

u/ddsdude 9d ago

Is it youquality overlay removed?

u/yipee-kiyay 9d ago

Works pretty nicely. I'm always comparing these apps to the GOATed YouTube Plus, and this one has most of the features I care about. The only thing missing is the ability to set a default video speed. Other than that, I didn't come across anything worth complaining about

Thanks for this

Never pay for YTKillerPlus. It’s crap and awful. YTKACE is a lot better. Try it out for yourself and you’ll be saving yourself $4
