Best app I've used so far. I like how it works and my favorite part is that I was using a YouTube client app and it was able to relize that it was youtube which let it have the same features it did with the normal youtube app like blocking certain channels. However, it doesn't let me block shorts and take a good amount of time to figure out what your client app is.

This app truely is a great app. The ui is very much refined and works great. The features are pretty awesome especially the reel blocker. Hope it doesn't have ads in the future like it doesn't now that's surely is a great decision. One kind request, just have a thought if you could open source its sources it would be very much beneficial for the users for whom you disabled ads and people would contribute.
