What I want is a YouTube viewer that cuts out ads that I can use on my Mac or my iPhone to use on my TV with a Chromecast.

Chromecast is how I view all my TV content.

You'll have to take that up with Apple. They're the ones dictating that you can't use any of the wonderful apps we have on Android.

As for Chromecast, SmartTube Next is what you want

Check out https://ghcr.io/nichobi/sponsorblockcast - run it on your LAN, and it’ll use SponsorBlock to clean up any YouTube-Chromecast stream you want.
