## Why SkyTube?

* Innovative design
* No intrusive ads
* Multilingual
* Only requires 2 Android-permissions (Internet [mandatory] and access to External Storage [optional])
* Not dependent on the GAPPS/Google Apps (i.e. YouTube official app)
* No need for Google/YouTube account to operate
* My code does not spy on your behaviour!
