Out of the box it can play audio in the background, and now that extensions are available you can block ads as well. You don’t really need constantly updating 3rd party clients or questionable firewalls anymore if you just want usable youtube on a phone.

    I’m expecting downvotes here but this is one of the reasons I started using Brave. One of the few things I could get to block YouTube ads on a non-jailbroken iPhone.

      CrybtoBro Spam app. I’d rather go with Safari.
      But since I use Firefox I am spared from Chromium and the crypto ad stuff.

        Well I feel that any cryptobro stuff was entirely optional and that Brave is dedicated to their users privacy.

        However I still feel Firefox is the right choice, it’s just not a one that I’ve been able to fully commit to yet.
