    I feel like everybody is overlooking the fact that this person is getting an ad, to watch ads, after already paying for Premium.

      I suspect that he is using YouTube ReVanced, which allows you to patch the YT app. One of the patches is replacing the branding with “Premium”. But you occasionally still get YT Premium ads - 0 normal ads, tho.

      This might be the case

        Thanks for letting me know this existed, I will be downloading it immediately. Edit: ReVanced isn’t available on IOS, I use Android but the guy who posted this is clearly using IOS.

          If you don’t want to bother with the whole patching process you can also try Grayjay, it’s in early beta but it works flawlessly on my phone. Haven’t tried casting yet but it’s supposed to work, as opposed to Revanced.

        Revanced usually hides the big central ‘+’ upload button by default. Unless OP explicitly re-enabled it, they are using the standard app.

      But it’s not an ad. It’s a prompt telling you that getting premium has more options than free YouTube.
