# **Frequently Asked Questions**
## **What is ReVanced?**
## How to get ReVanced?
ReVanced is a modular patcher for apps such as YouTube. This project was born out of Vanced's discontinuation, and our goal is to continue the legacy of what Vanced left.
ReVanced is and will always be in development! You can follow [ReVanced Manager documentation](https://github.com/revanced/revanced-manager/tree/main/docs) to use ReVanced. Alternatively, you can use [ReVanced CLI documentation](https://github.com/revanced/revanced-cli/tree/main/docs).
## **How does ReVanced work?**
ReVanced does not distribute any proprietary file but instead provides open-source patches. Patches can be created for any Android app. The ReVanced Manager will use the patcher as its core to apply patches of your choice on your desired app. ReVanced can mount the patched app on rooted devices over the original one. On non-rooted devices, ReVanced will install it under a different package name.

## **Does ReVanced always stay up to date with YouTube?**
ReVanced Patcher allows you to use patches on any app version. However, please note that patches may not work if you're not using the versions suggested by ReVanced Manager.,
Unlike Vanced, our patcher can apply patches to any app version. This way, you can use patches on newer or older versions and are independent of us
releasing a newer version. (Sometimes patches can break and will need updates. Check [the documentation](https://www.reddit.com/r/revancedapp/wiki/documentation/) on what versions ReVanced is mainly targeting)

## **Does ReVanced support Music?**
You can check supported apps and their patches on the [ReVanced Website](https://revanced.app/patches).
Yes. Patches have been created for YouTube Music and can be created for any other app. The MicroG patch is being worked on to allow ReVanced to work with YouTube Music.
## Does Vanced still work?
## **Will ReVanced have NFTs?**
Vanced is currently semi-functional and can be downloaded from mirrors. Issues include occasional ads and playback issues, which may be resolved by applying our Vanced patches.
