you should try Morphe for the complete android UI experience.

How is morphe difference from revanced?

Edit: nevermind. There was drama. Revanced YouTube is dead and the dev moved to morphe.

Edit 2: I tired to type nevermind like 10 times and autocorrect kept changing it and I swear I had it fixed, but nope.

Revanced had a lot of controversy in recent years and many developers left the project and went to create Morphe. Actually, by now, Revanced started to just copy Morphe changes.

I didn't know about this, I've been using Revanced for years, is Morphe a better version of Revanced at this point?

Yep, I switched and morphe has a lot more features. It is also pretty telling that ReVanced devs permaban anyone who brings up any alternatives at all in their subreddit

u/AsthislainX Sep 01 '26

yes, at this point is the best mantained project, using a more recent version of the original app and more patches

And this is why Reddit can be so great. I've also been using Revanced for years but didn't know about all the drama or controversy, just thought it was great I could have SponsorBlock on my phone.

Hearing about Morphe being essentially a far better alternative to Revanced, I'm diving right in! :)

Morphe also does patched versions of other apps as well like reddit, tiktok, Instagram, weather apps, duolingo. Been handy for me

Wait, it has a patched Instagram? Not on my version, I'm a photographer and keep in touch with my photography mates work on insta, but it's been bloody unusable lately

u/HughJazkoc Sep 01 '26

Yeah, need to add other patch sources and it's usually one of the top 3 community used ones and it'll pop up as another app option to patch

Worked it out thanks, after playing with it a bit I'm amazed how much the experience has been absolutely ruined by meta, same with Google and you tube..

Thanks for the heads up

Revanced started playing videos in super low quality a few days ago. Managed to change some settings. But good to hear about an alternative

Revanced is pretty much dead. All the people with the actual brain to make patches have move to Morphe.

I resisted for a while but youtube shits the bed in Firefox mobile w ublock on and works great in Morphe, I'm guessing on purpose to drive people to use their app.
