TubeForge - YouTube Revive for iOS 7-10

Note: Due to the emergence of a better solution that utilizes proxying instead of a custom GUI, this project might not meet current expectations. Consider exploring more recent alternatives if you're looking to revive legacy YouTube functionality on older iOS devices.

Overview: TubeForge was designed to revive the outdated YouTube app on iOS 7-10 devices by leveraging the Invidious API. The approach involves:

  • Class Hooking: Intercepting YouTube's native classes and replacing them with locally hosted HTML/PHP pages.
  • Localhost Pages: Utilizing the tubeforge script to load and display modern web pages inside the YouTube app.
  • Instance Selection: Allowing users to choose an Invidious instance (local or public) for fetching content.

Current Status:

  • The project is not maintained and is likely not working properly.
  • While improvements were being developed, a better alternative was released that opts for proxying the content instead of creating a new GUI—this new method is generally considered superior.
  • For further discussions and alternatives, check out the r/legacyjailbreak subreddit.

Installation (when it was active):

  1. Repository Addition: Add the repo to Cydia: https://repo.ahmadjerjawi.github.io
  2. Package Installation: Search for and install tubeforge.
  3. Configuration: After installation and a respring, configure your desired Invidious instance through the tweak’s settings.

Requirements:

  • iOS 7-10 device
  • YouTube App (compatible version)
  • adv-cmds (for installing utilities like ps)
  • PHP
  • Cephei framework
  • Lighttpd
  • An operational Invidious instance (local or public)
