Requirements: Android 5.0+
Overview: A libre lightweight streaming front-end for Android.
NewPipe currently supports these services:
YouTube and YouTube Music
PeerTube and all its instances (check the website to know what that means!)
Bandcamp
SoundCloud
media.ccc.de
NewPipe works by fetching the required data from the official API (e.g. PeerTube) of the service you’re using. If the official API is restricted (e.g. YouTube) for our purposes, or is proprietary, the app parses the website or uses an internal API instead. This means that you don’t need an account on any service to use NewPipe.
Also, since they are free and open source software, neither the app nor the Extractor use any proprietary libraries or frameworks, such as Google Play Services. This means you can use NewPipe on devices or custom ROMs that do not have Google apps installed.

What’s New:
New
Access more content provided by channels which is grouped in different tabs (TeamNewPipe/NewPipeExtractor#1082 #9182 #10645 #10670 #10673). The content of the channel tabs can vary by service:
YouTube: videos, shorts, live, playlists, about

PeerTube: videos, playlists, channels (for accounts), about
SoundCloud: tracks, playlists, albums, about
Bandcamp: albums, tracks, about
media.ccc.de: videos, about
Allow selecting image quality among multiple images #10062 #10482
NewPipe supports selecting the image quality among multiple image versions. This comes with three different presets which can be selected from within the settings (low, medium and high quality). This is most noticeable in the recently introduced card style for stream lists which is now able to show thumbnails in higher resolutions. Some services (e.g. YouTube) do not always provide the highest quality thumbnails for those lists.
