FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Klat Tube legal?

Yes. Klat Tube uses public Invidious/Piped instances to fetch YouTube content. It's a client, not a scraper. Downloading for personal use falls under fair use in most jurisdictions.

Can I sign in with my Google account?

No, and that's by design. Klat Tube stores subscriptions locally. Import/export OPML to migrate from/to other clients or YouTube.

Does it work with YouTube Premium features?

Klat Tube provides ad-free, background play, PiP, and downloads for FREE - features YouTube locks behind Premium.

Can I use my own Invidious/Piped instance?

Yes! Go to Settings → Instance and enter your custom instance URL. Supports both Invidious and Piped APIs.

How do I update?

Windows: auto-update notification. Linux AppImage: use AppImageUpdate or re-download. Flatpak: system update. GitHub Releases always have latest.

Does it support live streams?

Yes! Watch live streams with chat (read-only), DVR controls, and quality selection. Chat replay available for past streams.
