Experience audio streaming on intention, not attention seeking algorithms or behaviour hacking practices.
ytify is designed to be a lean, modern, and intentional tool. By taking a pragmatic approach to design and resource use, we provide an ethical listening experience that puts you in control, free from the information overload of typical online media applications.
The journey began with a frustration. As a regular user of NewPipe in 2021, I relied on it for background audio, but noticed its failure to stream under poor network conditions. This led to a simple support issue which, when left unresolved, became the seed for a solution. Taking the problem into my own hands, I started the ytify project in January 2022 to build an application that prioritized robust performance and efficient use of resources from the ground up.
