About FluxTube

FluxTube is an open source YouTube client built with Flutter. It is designed to play YouTube videos without ads and to offer standard viewing tasks such as following channels, reading comments, seeing video dislike counts, and saving videos for later. The project was originally created for personal use, and the homepage describes it as a community project that accepts issues for improvements.

The app can use four different YouTube services as backends: NewPipe Extractor, Piped, Invidious, and Explode. The homepage says this allows users to switch to another service if one stops working. Some features are only available when the NewPipe Extractor service is selected, and the Piped and Invidious options depend on instances that may become unavailable. The source lists Playlist Support and Channel Profile Support as open to-do items.

FluxTube FAQ

Does FluxTube require an account or login?
The homepage states that no login is needed to use the app.
Which YouTube service should I choose?

Can I move my data from the NewPipe app?
FluxTube can import and export data as NewPipe-compatible ZIP files.
