YouTube app: alternative - these options are available

With the YouTube app, you can also access all YouTube videos on your smartphone. However, you usually have to put up with a lot of advertising and it lacks many features. But you can also use one of the many alternative apps.

The best alternatives to the YouTube app

Of course, there are exciting video apps for Android as well as iOS as an alternative to YouTube:

1. The app Vimeo also offers you many creative videos and free entertainment. The app is one of the best-known and most-used alternatives to YouTube.
2. You can also find exciting and informative videos on dailymotion. Especially news topics are very popular here.
3. NewPipe is a free app that is built like the YouTube app, but brings fewer features. It does not require the Google API or the Google Play service. However, it is only available for Android.

Are you mainly a fan of short, funny clips? Then you should check out TikTok.

iOS apps for watching video clips

If you use an iPhone, you have the following alternatives to the YouTube app in particular:

1. The free app Jasmine allows you to watch all YouTube videos on your iPhone. By linking to your Google account, you can also sync favorites and subscribed channels. The app requires at least iOS 6 for you to use it.
2. Another option is the PlayTube app, which is also free. The app is especially suitable for music videos on YouTube. However, you can also manage your playlists and cache videos to play them offline.
