Using YouTube in the Safari browser isn\u2019t the best experience. The YouTube app<\/a> isn\u2019t much better, as it lacks some essential features. A new Safari extension called\u00a0Vinegar\u00a0replaces the YouTube player with a small HTML one.<\/p>\n

The new extension is developed by And a Dinosaur<\/a> (via Daring Fireball<\/a>), which also made a\u00a0Web Inspector<\/a>, a developer console for Safari, a tool that redirects AMP pages called AMP Shockwave<\/a>, and others<\/a>. Basically, it replaces the default YouTube player in mobile Safari with its own player (similar to\u00a0YouTube5).<\/p>\n

This is important because it removes\u00a0in-video ads, prevents YouTube from tracking your play and pause activities, adds\u00a0picture-in-picture functionality, keeps the videos playing if you switch to another tab, and lets you play an\u00a0audio-only stream. Whether you\u2019re on the dedicated YouTube website or watching a video embedded in another site, these features work.<\/p>\n

These features have been missing from YouTube on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, even though they were significant selling points of the operating system for other video apps.<\/p>\n

Vinegar isn\u2019t a free extension, but thankfully it\u2019s just a one-time $1.99 payment to get it, so you won\u2019t need to deal with the subscriptions or in-app purchases that are all over so many other applications nowadays. If you\u2019ve always wished YouTube had these critical functions on iPhone, then it\u2019s worth a look.<\/p>\n
