WebMediaShare - web media your way!

DEPRECTATED: This project is no longer maintained. Reasons are explained in this issue

WebMediaShare is an app to browse your favourite media websites (e.g. online streaming sites, online radio stations, etc.) so that you can:

view the content without ads/popups/redirects/etc.
listen to music from a streaming site in a media player app like VLC, so that it continues playing even if the screen is off
send the media to your TV or Hifi (e.g. via the Kore app for Kodi). This works like Chromecast, but without the need for the Chromecast device, a Google account or Google Play Services, or special support for the site.
share the media URL to friends on chats or email
share the media to an app for downloading

WebMediaShare is a browser with the following features:

Save your favourite media sites in-app
Add shortcuts to the home screen so that they open like regular apps
Ad blocking
Prevents popups, pop-unders, and redirects (i.e. works well with sports and other live streaming sites)
intercepts media within web pages, allowing you to view and share them

Forked from WebApps https://github.com/tobykurien/WebApps, which is a more privacy-oriented app that works well for social media and other web apps.

Limitations

Cookies and referer information is lost when sharing a media URL, so it may not work on some sites if the server requires these.
Casting does not work well for sites like YouTube.com that stream their media in several chunked files
- For YouTube in particular, use "Share URL" menu option to share to Kore. Your Kodi instance will need the YouTube plugin installed.
- Another alternative is to use an Invidious instance for YouTube, which works well and removes some YouTube restrictions and allows even streaming just the audio or video independently.
Casting may not work on sites that implement DRM, e.g. F1TV or Strikeout
