I recently switched from roku boxes with an eye toward some more software options on Android boxes. The only problem is that the videos I watch on my phone are not related to the videos that my family wants on the big screen.

The device doesn't seem to work while logged out, and we don't want to constantly have to switch device-level accounts (everything else is connected to my account).

The ideal situation is for the device to be logged in, with the YouTube to be logged out (or logged in another account)

Use Smartube. Follow the instructions under "easiest". You can use it logged out and benefit from no ads and sponsorblock.

CordCutters is a place for those who have cut the Cable or Satellite TV cord, and want to know what other legal services are available. No piracy talk please, it could get the person posting it in trouble with the authorities and could get the community banned on some servers, so please only talk about products and services that are legal to use.
