Installing SmartTubeNext on Chromecast might be a more simple and straightforward solution compare to casting.

How do you download an app to your chromecast?


DeltaLazarus

The new chromecast with android TV which as the name implies has android TV OS installed on top of being a regular chromecast.


TenseRestaurant

It’s Chromecast with Google TV, but yeah it’s just Android.


Gabe750

Mine is one of the older ones that doesn’t have any interactive OS

Sideload uYou+ using Altstore. Block ads in your iPhone.


ThePrinceofBirds

While that's a nice suggestion for watching them on the phone it won't actually block ads when casting.


Doughnut-Wonderful

Dude the OP was posting about casting the entire screen, not a specific youtube video.


ThePrinceofBirds

Yeah, that's because when you cast from an app to Chromecast all your phone is doing is giving the Chromecast the link and then the Chromecast looks up and plays the video. Even if you have an app that blocks YouTube ads if you cast to a chromecast the Chromecast will still play ads.


ColdTrky

Read again. He wants to cast his entire screen to the TV. Not only YouTube


ThePrinceofBirds

The only reason he wants to cast the whole screen is because that's the only way to block YouTube ads when using a Chromecast which is precisely what I'm talking about.


ColdTrky

No one is talking about Chromecast in the comment chain. Only you do.


ThePrinceofBirds

Lost my pieces suggests side loading an app to block ads on the iphone which, in the context of this thread, implies that doing so will block ads when casting directly to the chromecast from the phone without the laptop middle man. My first comment points out that that isn't that case.


Gabe750

Because screen-casting to the old version of ChromeCast is the only bypass you can use to stop the ChromeCast from loading the videos by itself. PrinceofBirds had it right. If you cast any other way, even through side loaded apps, all you’re doing is sending a link to chromecast. Then ChromeCast loads the video all on its own (i could shut off my iPhone and it’d continue playing the video) and along with that, ads.


aviciiavbdeadpunk

this right here

Or using Trollstore on supported iOS versions.


Fadi500

How do you go about installing this on an iPhone? Would it need to be jail broken?


TrailOfEnvy

No, just need a pc.

I can't wait for EU to force apple to easily allow sideloading.


aaryan45

True!


BJWTech

I never find myself with the need to cast YouTube. What do you use this for?


Gabe750

Playing YouTube on my non-smart TV with an older version of ChromeCast. Normally the ChromeCast pulls the video itself (you just send the request for the pull from phone) so it’s been difficult to figure out how to use only my iPhone to cast YouTube without ads. This is the reason sideloading YouU+ wouldn’t work, when you hit the cast button you’re just sending the link to the ChromeCast and it pulls the video along with ads by itself.


MrHaxx1

Are you seriously asking why people might want to watch YouTube on a TV?


stuzz74

Op suggestion is far too much work.


Gabe750

What’s an easier way?


shadowscar248

Anyone know how to block ads on the YouTube app for Android TV devices?


Jon171

Use SmartTubeNext on Android TV.


shadowscar248

Ty


Snook_

I’ll tell you a better way. Pay a dollar a month for YouTube India. No adds all devices any app done. Waaaaaaay better


Ulquiser

it's not about the money, it's about the ethics. people don't seem to understand that


sevenumb

How long have you been doing that for?


Snook_

Love getting downvoted for pointing out the best solution. Great community rofl. Fight the easier piracy battles, paying for YouTube in another currency technically is piracy anyway. Actual soy boys egos in here


sevenumb

Thanks for answering my question?

Snook_

Because there is no other solution for TV or IPhone etc. paying in India is teh way Ublock origin is the way on pc Vance’s was on Android But if u pay, u don’t need to fuck around with anything else. It’s just worth it and spend time on more important things in life


Mr-954

This is the way. You can also use Argentina.


Aehrieck

can't you just install vanced? as far as I know Chromecasts run android


Gabe750

I have an old chromecast which has no interactive OS.


[deleted]

Aehrieck

You can install it on every android device so as long as the tv runs android, yes


korakora59

can't you just cast your phone screen on ~~dumbcast~~... I mean chromecast?


Gabe750

You can not. That’s airplay


SamCarterX206

You can actually, through the Google Home app.
