I work on creating and promoting GCam APK which is a modified APK done to get several extra features on the stock app in Android. Basically this is done using reverse engineering the original app file. I work on publishing about GCam APK Port, custom ROMs and some Linux how-to guides. I use this YouTube Blue APK and the NewPipe APK as a daily Youtube apps.

Yes you can flash this over the latest official nightly CM12.
In fact I personally did so.
And as this is not official, you will not get OTA updates like the nightlies.
You have to download the zip updates and apply them manually.
