================

Version **5.6.60.101** · Niko Entertainment Company Limited · `premium.gotube.adblock.utube`

What *GoTube* is
----------------

GoTube is a third-party YouTube client for [Android](https://bestforandroid.com/ "best android guides"). It plays the same public video catalog you already watch, but strips out the parts most people dislike: pre-roll and mid-roll ads, the block on background audio, and the paywall around picture-in-picture. The app is built by Niko Entertainment Company Limited and ships as a standalone [APK](https://bestforandroid.com/apk/ "apps apk download") rather than through an official store listing.

The appeal is simple. You open a video, it starts without an ad, and the sound keeps going when you lock the screen or switch to another app. For people who mainly use YouTube for music, podcasts, and long talks, that one change makes a phone behave the way a media player should. There is no account to create and no subscription prompt to dismiss.

Because it leans on YouTube’s own catalog, search and playback feel familiar. The difference is in the playback shell around the video: quality up to 4K where the source allows, variable speed from 0.25x to 3x, subtitles, and a floating mini-player. If you have weighed the official premium tier against a free third-party option, GoTube sits firmly in the second camp.

What this *mod* offers
----------------------

- **Ad-free playback**Pre-roll, mid-roll, and banner ads are removed, so videos start instantly and play through without interruption.
- **Background play**Audio keeps running when the screen is off or you switch apps, which turns GoTube into a music and podcast player.
- **Floating mini-player**Pop a video into a small movable window and keep watching while you scroll, chat, or browse in another app.
- **Quality and speed control**Pick resolution from 240p up to 4K and adjust playback speed between 0.25x and 3x to suit your connection.
- **No login needed**Build playlists and watch without creating an account or signing in, so nothing ties your viewing to a profile.
- **Subtitles and casting**Turn on closed captions and send videos to a Chromecast-enabled screen straight from the player.



How to *install*
----------------

1. **Download the APK**Tap the download button on this page. The file lands in your default Downloads folder.
2. **Allow installs from this source**Open Settings, search `Install unknown apps`, find your browser or file manager, and toggle the permission on.
