But they won’t be getting any more updates, so in all probability, within 2 years the app will become unusable. Vanced Official Twitter handle mentioned that those using the app on their phone can continue using it.

Vanced founders confirmed the service will be shutting down in the coming days, and all the download links will be removed. Vanced is a YouTube premium version clone app that lets you stream videos ad-free and in the background. If you don't you will see all "custom" apps uninstalled from your TV.YouTube Vanced video streaming app has been shut down after Google raised a legal complaint against the platform. The downside of this method is that every 50 hours you do need to hit the EXTEND button in the Dev app. Go again to your TV, launch Homebrew Channel and there you will be able from now on to install or update YouTube AdFree and several other apps like ie. Look for Homebrew Channel in the list and click Install. If everything went well you should be connected so while having selected Apps in the left panel be sure to select also Available on top. Go to your computer and head to to download and install the latest release of Device Manager for webOS.įollow the instructions at GitHub to setup a session to connect to your TV (basically give it a name, enter both the IP and the passphrase I told you to note down before and you are done) and connect to the TV. Uninstall the official YouTube app from the TV (you won't be able to run the modified app without doing this).

Launch it, put in your dev login details and enable Dev Mode Status.Īt next reboot enter again that app, enable also Key Server and note down IP address and passphrase both displayed on the left side. Now as a one time process go to your TV and from the Content Store download the app Developer Mode (made by LG itself). You need a computer with either Windows or macOS (I believe and iPad might do the job too) connected in the same network.įirst we have to create a free LG webOS developer account at (you can change language if it's not yours), but if you already have a normal LG account just login with it so to enable also the developer account. Some days ago I've found an easy peasy method to sideload a modified ad-free YouTube IPK file to all LG OLED TVs from year 2020 on (so from line CX/GX on), but I got feedback here that with C9 TVs it works too.
