Vinegar - Tube Cleaner

Better video player

Published by: And a Dinosaur

Description

Vinegar is a Safari extension that replaces the YouTube player with a minimal HTML video tag.
It removes ads, restores picture-in-picture, and allows videos to play in the background when set to audio-only quality.
Note: The phrase 'can read and alter webpages' in the permissions section is just an unfortunate choice of words. Vinegar needs access to the webpage to find the YouTube player and replace it. It's not doing anything creepy!
(Also, do check out Vinegar's companion app, Baking Soda. It's essentially a less powerful version of Vinegar, but it works on all websites except YouTube.)

No longer effective on iOS 18

I have just updated from iOS 15.1 to iOS 18.1 and Vinegar would always be turned off automatically whereas previously it works most of the time.

The extension does not allow viewing video chapters that YouTube videos are divided into, and it also automatically plays sound from the first video, even if you haven’t started it. This is very inconvenient.

Idk but now without vinegar its better, 1. Youtube M can go above 720p and my selection (1080) seems stick to every video and its seamlessly play the higher res, 2. On youtube M i can easily go fullscreen by just swipe up, 3. After requested desktop ver. Landscape video auto fullscreen. My problem with vinegar is, 1. Its interrupting the playing video then change the res, 2. Must use zoom gesture to go fullscreen and its seems trigger fast foward/backward when going fullscreen, 3. Full black screen with audio playing when play video with desktop version on landscape, 4. No auto fullscreen. Unless these got fixed and added, i can’t really recommend people using this. (On Ip 15 pro max & xs)

YouTube detects the extension as ad blocker and I get the warning on iPhone 12 mini running the latest update and ios version. I hope this gets fixed soon

Audio Volume Decreases to 50% randomly using Extract

Using Extract, audio randomly decreases volume to 50% when in background. And frequently the page must be force reloaded through the Safari URL bar to work.

Latest version no longer functions

I’m not sure what’s going on since support hasn’t replied to my inquiry but this latest update no longer functions fully. Buyer beware.
