I just went through the steps and it seems like the menu no longer jives with the instructions. I'll keep poking away at it. I did unlock developer mode so, progress.

If you get it to work, I'd also look into getting the button remapper app so you can make the YouTube button on your remote open up smart tube instead.

I also use it to map the double tap of Netflix to Disney+ and a hold to go to Amazon. It's pretty handy.

I didn't know that was a thing! Sounds like a worthwhile endeavor!

It's worth it. You only have to.install it once and then you can update it from inside itself. I have YouTube premium so ads don't pop anyway but sponsorblock awesome and the actual interface is better and doesn't completely change randomly for the worse like YouTube app does Everytime they get an amazing idea for how to make the UX worse.
