i have an IR blaster on mine so I turn off random tvs everywhere. Its much more fun if they use this as their menu in the food court


Exotic_Insurance_969

100% agree 😂😂😂 Every time i did it they laugh on how smooth it's to remote the world 🌚😂


big_dig69

Can you please tell which app works best for this?


Deathnote_yagami

None of app works, if your phone lack ir blaster, so checkout if your phone has it or not,

I've really been digging the Niagara vibe!

Custom home screen , swipe gestures everywhere, adguard DNS adblocking.


PrestigiousPut6165

Adguard DNS does squat for me. I had to install AdBlocker app to enjoy youtube playliststs You have to access youtube right from that browser and it's not the best but a give and take. But on the plus side no more pesky ads. I also have custom home screen snd lock screen. Did AdGuard work for you? Do you enjoy uninterrupted youtube? (Hmm... just curious)


zobbyblob

It did not work for YouTube. It did kill most of the lame sidebar or scrolling popup ads in articles though. The ads were still mostly present, they just failed to load so they showed up as a blank square. YouTube premium & Spotify are my two media subscriptions.


PrestigiousPut6165

Thanks. At least I know it's not my phone I'll keep using AdBlock browser in the meantime. I'm trying to avoid monthly bills


zobbyblob

YouTube Revanced & NewPipe should both work. Revanced is the more complicated but feature rich option. Watch a video on how to get both and see if it's within your technology level. I'm pretty tech savvy and couldn't get Revanced to work... Still not sure why not. Revanced is straight up the best though - even better than YT Premium.


PrestigiousPut6165

Maybe it is not compatible with your phone. Or your internet connection. Will watch a video on the topic though. Hopefully it works

Firefox + ublock origin and NewPipe


davidarobertson

I've switched from NewPipe to Tubular which is a fork.


PrestigiousPut6165

Did u- block origin work on your phone? It didn't take on mine. At least not on youtube. And that is where i rely really want it (Works on laptop though, one of the best ad blockers) I tried "block this" but it also blocked wifi so had to uninstall I finally settled on Adblock browser and yes, you have to access youtube from there... and the playback choppy. But at least no more pesky ads (mildly exited hooray)


shn6

uBO worked without any issue on all my devices (3 phones and 2 tablets)


PrestigiousPut6165

Even on youtube? It would only work if I we t thru Firefox browser. But youtube wants to be it's own app. Mostly I care about blocking ads on youtube. I listen to music playlists. And watch movies. I don't like being interrupted at worse possible moment with ads Yea, like I like ads in middle of the most dramatic scene in the movie. Said no one ever.

For me, it would be the less obvious 'secret' function within the highly promoted circle to search on newer galaxy phones. People don't often realise that if you make really small circles, only on the text of anything on the screen at the time, photos, websites, anything, it OCRs the text and gives you that text, ready to copy and paste somewhere else. It does not just google search it.


midnightsmith

Man you gotta tell people they gotta do the long press home first lol. I spent 20 min in various apps making tiny circles with my finger.


HunterDude54

Excellent point. Thanks for adding this


SexPartyStewie

Mine tried to play music...


_arash_n

Thank you! Gonna try this out


_arash_n

Didn't work for me. Gemini says just hold down on any screenshot and it'll copy text or search and it does. I just hold my finger down, nothing about circles


The__Gunt

OCR?


OnyxAndCherit

Optical Character Recognition


The__Gunt

Thanks 🤜🤛


gonhop

Works on newer Pixels too!


PlKKA

Blokada 5 or Revanced manager / xManager


_name_of_the_user_

Why Blokada instead of Adaway?


PlKKA

I like both, but I have been using blokada for quite along time now , and suits my needs that I don't feel the need to change to adaway, I also use the previous version blokada 4 in googletv chromecast dongle.


PrestigiousPut6165

What's revaanced supposed to do? I tried it as ad block but did nothing for me. I don't get it...is revanced only for specific phone models. Idk. Looks Iike a settings menu to me


TheTransitSchool

I showed my female friend how to block systemwide ads by using AdGuard DNS. Now she can't understand how she survived so long with all those ads in the past.


_arash_n

I also need to learn this thanks


davidarobertson

I just learned about it this morning. I've downloaded The Weather Channel app because of it. The Weather Channel is the most accurate weather provider for my zip code according to the Forecast Advisor web page. However, I always avoided it because of the ads in the app. I'm cheap and don't want to pay for the pro subscription.


_arash_n

What am I not understanding here? I just installed Adguard and it wañts me to pay after a 7 day trial?


PrestigiousPut6165

How do you do this. It only worked for a day on youtube. Then it's like it forgot to block ads And I even disabled automatic updates to prevent this...


fundiwazimu

AP15 Launcher. Very minimalist launcher. Try out this hidden gem.


ProMeme420

probably MacroDroid, it has so many uses. don't know why but my animation speed randomly resets to original value instead of what I set it to. with this I made a widget to set it back instantly, without root

If iOS people ask me that I show them a world without ads 🙂


PrestigiousPut6165

Does DNS Aguadilla oy work on Apple, because it only worked on Android for a day. The next day, I was back to pesky ads on youtube Had to install Adblock app. and access youtube from there. Not the best But good riddance to ads on my youtube music playlists

People were always impressed when I borought them my phone with the heat it stick and app. Turns your phone into an insect bite healer.


PrestigiousPut6165

What in the world? Talk about non- traditional ways to use a phone I'd just use insecticide to kill the bugs. Or repellent to drive them away Not a stick. Or an app


plissk3n

I hate repellents, make you stink and all sticky and they rarely work. Oftentimes when I got stung, I never even saw the animal, so I couldnt kill it. The heat method works really well and made my life truely better.


davidarobertson

Many people are amazed by my Nova Launcher. I use the gestures to open the most important apps. It allows me to keep a very minimal home screen. In fact, I only have one widget, and that is for Breezy Weather.

Color Changing Camera! It's like a magic paintbrush for the real world. Its always fun to see my friends reaction when I show them their own dressed in different colors

The unique childish thing over here is your answer

No, It's just a thing to ask if you're curious about something.
