Ad free YouTube App (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I recently discovered SmartTube Next for Android TV to get an ad free experience and integrated Sponsorblock on my Nvidia Shield TV.

I found NewPipe for my phone but I don't see a way to connect my YouTube account to it and I guess I need to import my subs manually every time I change something.

So I'm wondering if there is an alternative YouTube app that is blocking ads (and ideally integrates Sponsorblock) for my smartphone and has the ability to connect my YouTube account like SmartTube Next does?

I know people hate the brave browser, and probably rightfully so, I haven't bothered looking for replacement yet so I'm still using it, but I just open YouTube through it and never see any ads at all. Maybe there's a better privacy respecting browser that has that block?

Firefox on Android can install uBlock but I would prefer to use an app.
