Wait...
Why i couldn't find any Vanced+ APKs or its source code, does this project abandoned ?
We are tired of "ReVanced Extended/ReVanced" community cuz of their measures to force we to don't do anything related to Vanced+ development and only want "ReVanced Extended/ReVanced/ReX" to be exists as their only YouTube for Android mods, that why this project literally abandoned months ago. The Vanced+ source code (patches/integrations/cli) are private until new announcement. (ofc if Vanced+ ready to release, its will come with prebulit + source code). Thanks for visting this project and we hope one day we can back and continue to implement Vanced+ !

Source code
Official YouTube app itself are proprietary and closed source, we can't access YouTube source code because its are private which only Google/YouTube developer can see its original code in kotlin and java which is not obfuscated and modify it. So we can only patch and modify YouTube from published compiled binary apk which is extremely obfuscated by Google/YouTube developer when they compiling YouTube app. Here is source code for what was modified and all of Vanced+/Vanced features, again, DONT ask for YouTube app source code! :

Why this project still exists even ReVanced was a replacement of YouTube Vanced ?
- This project was renamed to "YouTube Vanced+", basically i just add + after Vanced, but its still is a different project than original Vanced or ReVanced. ReVanced are too different from original Vanced and has too many useless feature that enabled by default, specially ReVanced Extended (eg : Hide suggested actions, Hide Subscription tab, Hide every YouTube components that not ADS make original YouTube experience impacted), our goal is continuing Vanced as Vanced+ branding without breaking original YouTube experience, all of features that NOT related to ADS, Downloader or Playback/PIP will be disabled by default
- That means when you install and open YouTube Vanced+ first time, all you see is a YouTube app with no ADS but without any layout modifications, unlike how ReVanced does. you still can modify layout on Vanced+ settings -> Layout but we will never set these tweaks as ON by default.
- Also we still provide pre-bulit YouTube Vanced+ app for who can't patch for yourself just or lazy. Unlike ReVanced (official channel), they never provide pre-bulit app and requires you to bulit from source
- ReVanced Extended are discontinued again recently, so its time for us! Well...
- I don't know when Vanced+ will available to anyone, but for now this project still being developed on PRIVATE REPOSITORY. Vanced+ always been my dream, but most ppls include u knows, i have bad memories about Unofficial Vanced and bad programming skill, that why its still not available yet
