Official ReVanced Team FAQs

What is ReVanced?

ReVanced is a modular patcher for apps such as YouTube. This project was born out of Vanced’s discontinuation, and our goal is to continue the legacy of what Vanced left.

How does ReVanced work?

ReVanced does not distribute any proprietary file but instead provides open-source patches. Patches can be created for any Android app. The ReVanced Manager will use the patcher as its core to apply patches of your choice on your desired app. On rooted devices, ReVanced can mount the patched app over the original application. On non-rooted devices, ReVanced will install it under a different package name.

Does ReVanced support non-root devices?

Yes! ReVanced supports non-root and rooted devices.

Does or will ReVanced have feature X?

ReVanced is an open-source project. At first, we are working on implementing all core features from Vanced. Afterwards, we will continue to implement your suggestions. Your contributions are also very welcome.

How can I help?

Since we are an open-source community and depend on outside help, you can always check out our GitHub repositories and contribute to us by creating an issue or pull request.

Will ReVanced always stay up to date with YouTube?

Unlike Vanced, our patcher can apply patches to any version of the app. This way, you can use patches on newer or older versions and are independent of us releasing a newer version. (Sometimes patches can break and will need updates. Check the documentation on what versions ReVanced is mainly targeting)

Will ReVanced support Music?

Yes. Patches have been created for YouTube Music and can be created for any other app. The MicroG patch is being worked on to allow ReVanced to work with YouTube Music.

Will ReVanced have NFTs?

We do not intend to create NFTs. It also was never the reason why Vanced shut down and wouldn’t be for us as well.

Does Vanced still work?

Vanced is currently fully functional and can be downloaded from mirrors.

Will MicroG stay up to date?

MicroG and Vanced MicroG are under development by their respective maintainer.

Is ReVanced affiliated with Vanced?

ReVanced is not affiliated with Vanced.

Can you support me?

If you have no idea how to use ReVanced yet, then do not use it yet. ReVanced is currently in development and directed toward developers. If you genuinely have a problem and need help for development purposes, please include the error you get, what caused it and your current environments, such as which files and versions you used in a new thread in #🩹・support on Discord.
