Question

The Android YouTube app by Google used to be a decent way to view YouTube videos. Now it has so much advertising that many find it tedious and unusable.

Is there an Android app that plays YouTube videos, but without all the ads and interruptions?

Requirements:

Runs on Android
No advertising videos (one banner ad acceptable, but strongly prefer to have none)
Ability to search for videos to watch (not just a playlist viewer)

Preferences:

No advertising at all
Gratis (free of charge)
Open-source
Ability to view what's popular or trending

Explanation / Answer

I would recommend NetMBuddy:

APK file available
no ads anyway
music/video player, search items, playlists,
