Hi!! Since i used to struggle a lot with the guides available (partially bc of attention span issues) and i had to figure out lots of things myself when i first got into Revanced, heres a step by step guide for downloading it on non-root devices! :>

Be nice please and excuse any grammar errors since english isnt my first language,, if theres anything i missed, let me know!

DISCLAIMER: Never download from (or use) sites that arent apkmirror and/or github. These are the only ones necessary anyway and the other ones are not trustworthy. Also, Revanced doesnt work for iphone devices as far as im aware (sorry lol). THE STEPS IN THIS GUIDE MIGHT NOT BE NECESSARY FOR EVERYONE BUT THEY WERE FOR ME its okay if you find it a little overboard but i struggle with following tutorials and i struggled with errors that most ppl didnt mention anywhere so i included the fixes that helped me!

Links for the necessary downloads are at the end

Preparations:

1. Turn off Google Play Protect

2. Allow unknown downloads for your browser in settings

3. Disable/uninstall youtube app

Steps:

1. Download Vanced microg

2. Download Revanced Manager

3. Open your files app and install both

4. Open ReVanced Manager. Check for the suggested version of youtube (patcher -> select application,, then find youtube and check for the currently suggested version)

5. Look up "youtube apk [suggested version]", find & open apkmirror.com, download the correct one that is NOT a bundle (and pick nodpi) and install it as well

6. Go back to ReVanced Manager. patcher>select application>youtube.

7. Click on selected patches. either use the default ones or you can do some cherry picking on your own.

8. Once done with patches, ensure that you included "GmsCore support".

9. Press done and patch. Once its finished, just install it.

there you go :> revanced is ready to be used and you can sign in to your account

Shorter Version:

1. Download and install Vanced microg, Revanced Manager and the currently suggested Youtube APK

2. Open Revanced Manager, select Youtube to patch it

3. Select the patches you want

4. Let it apply the patches and install once its ready

Repatching ReVanced after an Update

1. Open and update ReVanced Manager if needed

2. Check the currently suggested Youtube version and download it, if necessary, from apkmirror.

3. Delete the old Youtube APK since you wont be using it anymore

4. Repatch and install

NOTES:

-its best to go with default and then check if theres anything you want to change (including or excluding some patches)

-if, for whatever reason, you still encounter errors such as the patching process aborting, the app not opening or something else going wrong,, please make sure you have followed every step correctly and if necessary, go over your patches again. Try starting from the beginning if you cant find other solutions.

-after you have successfully finished everything, feel free to turn Google Play Protect back on or disable downloading from unknown sources for your browser, if you'd like.
