How to install NewPipe on Android

NewPipe is a YouTube replacement client for Android devices. It's open-source (meaning, you can see all of their code as you please), privacy-oriented, lightweight, and supports features that are normally locked behind a YouTube Premium paywall.

Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with NewPipe, YouTube, Android, Google, Alphabet Inc, or any other brand or name mentioned here. I made this guide to help my friends who were curious.

NewPipe's Website: https://newpipe.net/

The GitHub Repository

Step 0. Compatibility check

Make sure you're running an Android device! This won't work on an Apple device of any kind! Also, for those more tech-savvy among you, if you have the F-Droid store installed, you can download NewPipe straight from there!

Step 1. Downloading

Go to NewPipe's Github repo (repository, the codebase or where all of the code is stored). Scroll to the bottom of the page until you see "Releases". Click on the one that says "Latest" next to it in a little green bubble:

Your version number (v#...) will be different if you're reading this in the future! That's okay. Scroll past the changelog (unless you want to read it!) until you find "Assets":

Click on the first one, the one with the little cube ending in .apk. APK files are Android Package (Kit) and are the main format for downloading apps. Once you click on the link, it should begin downloading or your browser will ask you to confirm that you want to download this file. You should always verify the filename matches what you expect it to be (namely, the file format) before attempting to install! It might take a few moments for the file to download depending on your internet connection.

Step 2. Installation

Once you have the file downloaded, you can click the download popup in your notification bar or find the file in your device's file system. One of 2 things will happen:

You will get a popup asking if you want to install an APK by the name of NewPipe - confirm that you do (and make sure the app is really NewPipe!) and it will install automatically. You can then click "Open" to open the app and begin using it.

You will get a popup warning you that you have the ability to install apps from unknown sources disabled and that you can't install this. This is normal and does not mean that you downloaded the wrong thing.

If you got the first popup, continue past this step. For those of you who got the second, let's go over what this means.

By default, most Androids have this setting disabled. This is for security purposes, so you can't accidentally install a malicious app from the whole internet. If you enable this setting (allow installations from unknown/unsigned sources), you are theoretically putting yourself at risk. Realistically, you're probably fine. But, after installing NewPipe, you can always re-disable the setting if it makes you more comfortable. That will prevent you from installing updates in the future, but it can always be re-enabled.

Ready to turn that setting on? It will vary by your individual device! Some devices will take you directly to the page with the setting upon failed installation, and some you will just have to find it yourself using the searchbar in settings.

Once you've allowed installations from unknown sources (wording may vary slightly), try to repeat the steps above of clicking the download popup or finding the APK in your files and trying to install it. It should work correctly this time!

Step 3. Updating NewPipe

Like most apps, NewPipe is in development currently and frequently has new versions released to improve it and fix bugs. Unlike most apps, NewPipe needs to be manually updated, since we haven't downloaded through the Google Play store.

To update NewPipe, all you have to do is follow the above steps for installing the app, except that when you get the popup asking to install it, it will instead say "Update". That's it! NewPipe and Android handle the rest.

NewPipe also has popup notifications for when the app has a new update, so you don't have to worry about checking the GitHub for a new release. Just click on the "A new version is available" popup and it should take you directly to the webpage.

That's it! Enjoy browsing videos in peace without ads and with the ability to download and so much more. Pro tip: you can copy paste YouTube links into the NewPipe search bar to go directly to that video/playlist/channel.

[nando161mando]

sorry for the ping, but since most of us deal with zip files here, I thought this was important.

PSA: If you use 7-zip, please check which version you are using.

24.07 and earlier are no longer secure and have a serious vulnerability so be sure to update to 24.08 (released 11-Aug-2024) if you have not updated or downloaded it recently.

Note that 7-zip does not auto-update, and should never be downloaded from anywhere except for from the Developers own website: https://7-zip.org/

How to Secure Your Mobile App from Cyber Threats

Mobile apps handle a lot of user data, making security a top priority. If your app is not secure, hackers can steal information, inject malware, or cause serious damage. At Cloudi5 Technologies, a trusted mobile app development company, we follow strict security practices to protect apps from cyber threats. Here’s how you can secure your mobile app effectively.

1. Use Strong Authentication

Implement multi-factor authentication (MFA) to add extra security layers. Encourage users to set strong passwords and use biometric authentication like fingerprints or facial recognition.

2. Encrypt Data

Data encryption converts sensitive information into unreadable code. Use strong encryption methods such as AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) to protect data during storage and transmission.

3. Secure APIs

APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) are commonly targeted by hackers. Use secure API authentication methods like OAuth and API keys to prevent unauthorized access.

4. Keep Your App Updated

Regular updates fix security vulnerabilities. Always update your app and third-party libraries to prevent hackers from exploiting old security flaws.

5. Protect Against Malware

Hackers inject malware into apps to steal data. Use security tools to scan and remove any suspicious code before launching your app.

6. Implement Secure Data Storage

Avoid storing sensitive data on a user’s device. If necessary, use encrypted storage solutions and ensure data is not exposed to unauthorized access.

7. Test for Security Risks

Conduct regular security testing, such as penetration testing and code reviews, to identify and fix potential vulnerabilities.

By following these security measures, you can protect your mobile app from cyber threats. At Cloudi5 Technologies, we focus on building secure and reliable mobile applications. Contact us for expert mobile app development services.
