Vinegar - Tube Cleaner - Reviews, Revenue and Downloads - Apple App Store

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.)

10x better than the “original” experience.

Thank you for making such an amazing and helpful app! I deleted the original app for the site and downloaded this one to watch videos on Safari and I do not regret at all. Thank you!

With every update it gets worse for some reason

I’ve encountered more and more bugs and after the extract update, it doesn’t work at all. Even when it does it takes several refreshes to do so. I really hope they can get it back to way it was because this is the app that makes youtube bearable on the ipad

Extract as in newer but inferior?

Vinegar Extract güncellemesinden sonra bozdu. Why’d you leave the adblocking to other apps?.. Besides, I’ve started encountering several bugs: the YouTube player controls not showing up at all despite renewing the page or deactivating then reactivating the extension etc. Please try to fix these ASAP…

Everything works perfectly

There have been some bugs about which I contacted the developer and they took care of them right away.

Getting more slow

It was perfect when get into AppStore. Probably I was one of the first purchasers. However, after each update app getting more slower and deduct it’s options. Sorry but there is no way to compete with others in this way.

Çalışmıyor

Arkaplanda müzik oynatmada çok Sorun var.

Test it sometimes please

Its almost broken: • Tap to open in YouTube button doesnt work at all (on sites with included YT videos) • Opening YT videos from Google search results doesnt work properly: requires to re-open multiple times before it will play video (it just kicks me back to search results) • Playing YT videos in thrid-party sites stopped working today (just loading appears on 0:00) • Background playback doesn’t work without opening video in PiP-mode • Auto-select resolution doesn’t work properly. After playing it refreshes app and then pick selected resolution

Excellent ext.

I'm enjoying my experience with it so far, aside from a few bugs (which I don't know where to report). If I had to make a suggestion it would be to move the video section a little further down on the Youtube video page, as when you disable to quality switcher toolbar the video looks to be a little too far up compared to the video recommendations list on the right. Edit: I'm actually changing this review. While this extension is nice and Apple's video player is great, Youtube's video player has gotten a lot more muscular over the past few months, and now with being able to see the separate sections of a video and the most replayed parts of a video via the slider (at least in Chrome), this is not enough to convine me to switch. But I *am* looking forward to this extension getting those features as well, if possible (Apple's website's specific media player for their keynotes supports separating the slider by individual sections) but I don't know if Apple's exposing an API to that).

Great

Works as expected, no ads, picture in picture works perfectly.
