Injected YouTube Background Playback (IYTBP) was the first name of the app after naming the project as YouTube (Ads) Vance. The idea came from the exposure module of your tube video playback. Since the exposed module had some problems working with Android Nougat, this application was designed with all the features of that module.

YouTube Vansed is an advanced version based on an official YouTube application, lets you without video in video ads lets it is a completely ad-free version that is injected into the original application like YouTube ad blocker. Also, there are a number of enhanced features that the official app doesn’t offer like pipe (pictured) mode that allows you to play videos while using another app (only works with Orio ROM) and can play videos in the background when the screen is locked.
