I have an old Samsung Galaxy (2016) with Android 7.1 and all the recent Youtube ReVanced apps require Android 8+. The latest version you can use on Android 6+ is 17.36.37
My problem is videos stop loading after like a minute of playing, it gets stuck infinitely. I tried installing Vanced, which doesnt load videos at all anymore. Older versions of ReVanced, doesnt work. Other apps like NewPipe, but i dont like that they dont allow you to log-in to Google account. Also i heard that Youtube flags certain accounts like that, so you have to make a new one, but i dont want to abandon my 10 year old acc and build up my recommended page from scratch.
Is there anyone with old Androids? What is the solution here?
For revanced I can say it must be a change on Youtubes site. Because I had the same issue with a relatively new Version of Youtube and revanced on Android 12.
There is the new app grayjay.app which might be a solution for you. YouTube flagging your account is a risk you probably already take with revanced
I just made a new acc and the problem is still there, i guess they flag you down instantly as soon as you open ReVanced. Problem with different apps is that most of them dont allow you to log-in to Google acc, so you dont have your subscriptions, playlists, recommends page. I dont want to browse youtube anonymously, i dont care about my data being stolen by north korean CIA
I never had this issue with revanced. Maybe because I am from Europe
