History
Originally made by RazerMan (xfileFIN) and posted in the comments section of iYTBP (an older mod that was based on an Xposed Framework module), it started as a non-root variant of an adblocker for the stock YouTube app and was able to support login functionality through the use of a modified version of microG (now Vanced microG). On March 4th, 2018, Vanced expanded into its own thread and became its own app unrelated to the previous iYTBP app.
Vanced Manager
Launched in April of 2020, Vanced Manager is an app used to manage installations of Vanced apps. When Vanced 15.05.54 was first released, it used a new format introduced by Google known as split apks [1] which differ from a regular .apk file. Because of this, development of a management app began. Currently, Vanced Manager has over 3 million downloads on GitHub[1]
Vanced microG
Originally released as a mod of microG, Vanced microG was used for account functionality in YouTube Vanced using a standard Google account (the root version of Vanced does not require Vanced microG). On September 16th, 2020, Vanced microG became fully open-source[2]
SponsorBlock Implementation
On the 22nd of October 2020, YouTube Vanced added a SponsorBlock implementation[3], which lets users skip sponsor segments inside videos
