Yes, YouTube Vanced works perfectly no matter if your device is Non-Rooted, Rooted, or with Magisk. However, depending on our smartphone's status, the installation may be different. Below you will find the differences between installation on rooted and non-rooted devices. Of course, this includes those that work through Magisk.
For non-rooted devices, we will need a patch called Vanced MicroG. You will also need to download a specific installer called Split APKs Installer, also known as SAI, that can be downloaded from Google Play. In addition, it is necessary to have the ZIP file containing all the YouTube Vanced APKs. You can download the latter in a totally secure way by tapping on the Download button on this page.
For rooted devices, including those using Magisk, the installation is done slightly differently. In this case, we will not need the Vanced MicroG patch. Instead, it is necessary to install an xposed module that disables the APKs verification. Again we will need Split APKs Installer, but in this case, we will have to grant it root privileges. From now on, the installation is exactly the same as it would be on a device without root access.
Finally, it should be noted that there are several versions of the same application. Of course, we have YouTube Vanced for both rooted and non-rooted devices. But we can also choose between a dark or light theme and between the Legacy and Default versions. If your device is recent, you should go for the first one. If, on the other hand, you are going to use it on 32-bit devices or Android emulators, you should choose the Legacy variant.
