Anybody know of a good apk that blocks ads while watching YouTube on my phone app ?

I don't have a good ad blocker for you other than AdAway. It won't block YouTube ads on an unrooted phone, but it can on a rooted one. You can try in-browser mobile YouTube with Firefox + uBlock, but I would suggest switching away from the native YouTube app and getting NewPipe with SponsorBlock from F-Droid.

EDIT: Corrected link to current NewPipe.

Thank you for your response. I'll check it out

Highly recommended. You can even export your subscriptions from YouTube and import them into NewPipe. But that's for another thread. I use NewPipe almost exclusively now, having YouTube links pull up in NewPipe. No ads. And with SponsorBlock, you can skip the in-video ads (with community-driven data). Not to mention, you can also stream music from Bandcamp, and it supports PeerTube, etc, as well.

Isn't that repo outdated? I use this

You're correct. Thanks for bringing that to my attention. Fixed the link.
