Beautiful Open Source Apps for iOS (nice & modern UI/UX)
UI = User Interface
UX = User eXperience
Open source apps are known for bad/inintuitive design. If the apps works great and the UX is not terrible you might find it okay. But intuitive UI are better, and modern looking ones are pleasant to use, sadly they are not the majority. Here is my list of Beautiful Open Source Apps for your iPhone !
Apps are listed in alphabetical order !
Also look at : Beautiful Open Source Apps for Android for more open source apps for an Android device.
DISCLAIMERS
Nice UI comes to personnal preference. So this list is only based on my taste of what is a good modern looking app.
While open source is great for privacy and security it is not perfect. So keep that in mind before downloading any apps.
I again encourage you to do your own research about them and read their Privacy Policies.
I am not a privacy and security expert. I'm also don't consider myself as a developper so I do not have any technical knowledge and so I didn't look into any source code of any apps in this list !
Open Source YouTube Frontends
A list of open source YouTube frontends - both websites and apps. It is separated into categories based on device type and is aimed to be as comprehensive as possible.
My privacy & user friendly setup [2026]
What I use to protect my privacy that I would actually recommand to everyone to try as it does not requiere a lot of effort to use that instead of the GAFAM and Big Brother stuff !

Comments and Reviews
Unwatched provides a great way to keep track of all of my favorite content creators on YouTube. One of my favorite features, however, is that I can watch YouTube videos inside the app without ads. This app is continually improving with multiple features being added since I downloaded it. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to watch YouTube on iOS without ads!
