New update to 14.21.54 has been released!
=====================
What's new?
- Casting in non-root variant fixed (armills' MicroG pull request)
- Home ads in landscape orientation removed
- Notifications partially fixed (user actions needed, check Vanced settings)
- Login fixed for new WebView (mar-v-in's MicroG update, the "press back button once" workaround no longer needed)
- Snazzy new logo (same as our group and channel icon!)
~~~~~~~
Things to note:
- You need MicroG v0.2.6.17455 for Vanced 14.21.54 and onwards (note that this only applies to non-root).
- Older MicroG versions will not work on 14.21.54 and above, newer MicroG versions will not work on 14.10.53 or lower.
- MicroG settings to get notifications to work is located in Vanced settings. Be sure to follow the instructions within to get notifications working.
~~~~~~~
Known issues:
(From Logan's XDA post)
- Force close (non-root): If you're having this issue, uninstall MicroG and Vanced. Then install MicroG first, and then install Vanced.
- Force close when opening cast menu (non-root): This is an issue with your Substratum theme. Grab a logcat and forward it to your theme dev.
- "Unable to connect" or "Connection error" (non-root): You're using the newer version of Vanced but you didn't update MicroG. So update MicroG.
- White splash screen: This issue is due to YouTube making the splash screen correspond to your system's dark mode flag. If you're using non-root, update to the May 30th build. For everyone else, wait for an update.
- Notifications not working (root variant, maybe non-root as well?): Not a Vanced issue, blame your system's battery optimization. Disable battery optimization for Vanced (instructions to do so for your specific OEM can be found on Google or dontkillmyapp.com)

Yes, Vanced.app is currently down. Yes, we know it’s down. No, we don’t know when it’ll be back up.
Please use the mirrors in the pinned message or in the XDA thread until the site comes back up.

Just some quick updates:
Yes, it’s known that the site is down. The host found that the site was taking too many resources on his server, so he took it down for the time being. Use the official mirrors in the pinned message/XDA thread OP.
No, the app is not dead. It’s still being developed in private, but the devs have lives and there’s some issues with the Vanced mods in later YouTube version, so development is slow going. More info:

No, your Google account is not going to get deleted for blocking ads. Read these for more info:

(If you’re really that scared, don’t use your main Google account or use a Google account at all while in Vanced.)

As you all know by now, vanced.app is down, due a number of reasons. So the devs have taken this opportunity to go ahead and rewrite the site to make it more modern + perform better.
If you'd like to try out the new beta site, head over to:

Keep in mind that the site is a work in progress, and not everything is implemented.
Forward your feedback and any suggestions to @MrDodojo.

New update to 15.05.54 has been released!
=====================
What's new?
- Updated Vanced to YouTube v15.05.54.
- Auto subtitles has been replaced with Live Captions
- The old mini video player has been removed (Google removed it completely 😢)
- Whatever bug fixes Google made to YouTube over the past 9 months :P
---------------------
Things to note:
- Magisk installation is no longer supported, the Magisk and root installation method are now the same.
- The installation methods for non-root and root have changed, look below for a tutorial.
- MIUI users installing the non-root variant will need to follow a special installation guide (check below), because Xiaomi has fucked up MIUI (in classic Xiaomi fashion).
---------------------
Known issues:
- Auto repeat is not present in this build. It will be fixed on Feb 30th.
- Accessibility button toggle is removed due to it being broken. Will be added back later.
- Chinese ROMs (MIUI, EMUI, ColorOS, etc.) have broken PiP (usually). It's advised to just disable PiP for Vanced entirely if you use those ROMs.
- Some tablets will get a force close immediately after opening the app. Not sure what causes this issue.
=====================
NON-ROOT INSTALLATION GUIDE:
1) Install MicroG
2) Install the SAI (Split APK Installer) app
3) Select the .apks file you downloaded
4) Click "install"
ROOT INSTALLATION GUIDE:
1) Disable APK verification using a Magisk module or similar app (this module works on Android 9 or lower). If you’re on Android 10, you can use Xposed + CorePatcher (click here for installation instructions).
2) Install the SAI (Split APK Installer) app and enable root mode
3) Select the .apks file you download
4) Click "install"
NOTE: Yes, a certain warez app commonly associated with the color yellow can also achieve disabling APK verification - useful if you don’t want to/can’t install Xposed. But if you mention the name of said app in the chat, I will also verify you get your speaking privileges revoked.
MIUI INSTALLATION GUIDE:
(aka the "haha MIUI is such a garbage ROM you have to use a special snowflake installation" method)
Option A:
1) Deactivate MIUI optimization in Developer Options (this can delete all permissions for apps).
2) Open SAI and check that "signed APK" option is disabled and proceed with installation of Vanced (follow non-root installation guide above)
NOTE: If you can't install, check if original YouTube is installed. You need hibernate or disable the app until installation was completed.
Option B:
1) Install Shiziku from https://shizuku.rikka.app/ following all instructions carefully
2) enable Shiziku Mode in SAI
3) install Vanced like you would on any other phone (check instructions above)
Option C:
(How to install the new Vanced via ADB)
1) Download the .apks file
3) Extract the .apks file (it's just a ZIP)
4) Rename the
to
5) Run this command while connected to your phone:
NOTE: If you want to install a language other than English, add it at the end of the command (for example split_config.de.apk)
If you're on Dark, instead of Black, replace Black with Dark in the command.
5) Install MicroG manually on your phone
