YTweaks

Working features:

  • Fullscreen to the right or left: Locks fullscreen orientation.
  • Night Mode: Lowers brightness below device minimum by "faking it" with an app-wide semi-transparent black overlay. Works best on OLED devices.
  • Disable floating miniplayer: Restores the old miniplayer by disabling the floating miniplayer.
  • Virtual fullscreen bezels: Adds invisible touch-safe zones on black bars to prevent accidental taps and skips.
  • Fix Casting - Attempts to fix casting by changing some A/B flags. Only works on v20.10.4 or lower.

Experimental:

  • Hide AI Summaries: Attempts to block/hide AI summaries below videos in the home feed.

More settings will most likely be added in the future. Designed to work with a fork of YTLite (also known as YouTube Plus).
