I looked up NewPipe on the Google Play Store. First, there’s, like, four different options that are suspiciously similar. I click the one with 4.4 stars (others had, like, 2), and it says it collects and shares location data with third parties, and this data can’t be deleted?
From what I know, none of the apps in the play store is the real thing, for obvious reasons: how do you think Google would allow it?
Hence the ratings.
Yeah, definitely don’t get that app from the Play Store. F-droid is a reliable source for that and many other open source android apps. You could also go straight to the source like @[email protected] mentions below.
NewPipe (mobile), FreeTube (desktop), SmartTube (TV). If you did not know about these, you’re welcome.
Newpipe is great, with a play in background mode as well.

Yeah, I’m gonna have to say no to that.
