TL;DR Morphe v1.33.0 improves the playing queue feature, allowing users to add videos from anywhere in the YouTube app without needing to play them first.
The update also introduces crowd-sourced sponsor skipping alongside Last.fm and ListenBrainz integration for music tracking to YouTube Music.
Reddit users get new toggles to entirely hide the “Trending communities” shelf from search suggestions and the main feed.
Open-source patching tool Morphe has gained popularity for fixing a bunch of issues that users have had with popular apps, including Reddit, YouTube, and YouTube Music. Earlier last month, the tool added the ability to add videos to YouTube’s playing queue, while a later v1.32.0 patch restored the older video action bar with labels. Morphe has officially rolled out a new v1.33.0 patch bundle that further improves the playing queue feature and brings a bunch of other changes.
As Reddit user Unknown-Key notes, Morphe v1.33.0 allows users to add videos to the playing queue from anywhere in the YouTube app. This fixes a key limitation in previous releases, which forced users to open/play the video first before adding it to the playing queue.
The update also introduces a “Voice over translation” patch for multi-language content.
YouTube Music users also receive a massive feature upgrade. The client gains a dedicated SponsorBlock patch, mirroring the crowd-sourced segment-skipping experience that video viewers have used to bypass sponsors, intros, and filler.
Additionally, a new Scrobbling patch integrates directly with Last.fm and ListenBrainz, enabling audio enthusiasts to track their music listening habits automatically.
For Reddit users, the update focuses heavily on sweeping away interface clutter. It fixes a bug where the communities shelf failed to hide properly in experimental builds and introduces toggles to completely strip out the “Trending communities” shelf from search suggestions and the main “Trending on Reddit” feed shelf.
