I have an old Samsung Galaxy (2016) with Android 7.1 and all the recent Youtube ReVanced apps require Android 8+. The latest version you can use on Android 6+ is 17.36.37

My problem is videos stop loading after like a minute of playing, it gets stuck infinitely. I tried installing Vanced, which doesnt load videos at all anymore. Older versions of ReVanced, doesnt work. Other apps like NewPipe, but i dont like that they dont allow you to log-in to Google account. Also i heard that Youtube flags certain accounts like that, so you have to make a new one, but i dont want to abandon my 10 year old acc and build up my recommended page from scratch.

Is there anyone with old Androids? What is the solution here?

Playback stopping after a minute isn't an Android version problem.

This setting in revanced extended fixes it.

Don't know if it is available in revanced. Check settings - revanced - miscellaneous , scroll to the bottom.

If not try switching to rvextended

tried that, tried different versions of spoof player, including the "16.08 that solves the issue for most people", but no results

Isn't that "Spoof app version"? What we want is spoof player parameters.
