YouTube: Watch, Listen, Stream 17+

It was a good app. Didn’t like the change for moving the on-going video to the small bar too much cos it really doesn’t let me view the video concurrently while I am scrolling through other stuffs because it’s so small. But it wasn’t a deal breaker.

Now the comment section is. It’s not user friendly neither is it intuitive. There are changes that just take time to get used to but it’s for the better, but the change to the comment section is definitely not one of them. The movement to scroll makes a lot more sense than requiring me to tap to expand. It’s entirely too easy to exit out the comment section when I want to return to all comments after I clicked into the more replies. I was more than happy when you guys changed it back the first time only to find it’s been updated again recently. Please stop trying to move the comment section can you?

Even if you had to do this, then at least let me swipe right to go back to the “all comment” after I clicked into one reply, instead of only taping the “back” arrow on the top left.

I don’t know if this is happening to other people, but for some reason I can’t see comments because they are disabled. Every time when I upload a video, I always have the comment settings on, meaning I always set it to “No, it’s not made for kids.” But when I check to see if the description worked and if everything is set up, it will say “Comments are turned off.” I’ve noticed that some people are having the same issue. If people are having the same issue with comments being disabled when you clearly set it to have comments, there can be 3 reasons why they have it not set. 1, they probably don’t like comments in general and just find it to be annoying to get tons of notifications about comments even though you can turn the notifications for comments without having to completely disable the function. 2, they know that they’re video is made for kids and respect the reason why comments can be sort of bad for younger viewers. And 3, they are going through the same issue I’m going through with comments being disabled randomly. I’ve also noticed that this issue doesn’t happened to people who have a good subscribe count like for example someone with 5k subscribers. If this issue is possible to solve, that would be very much appreciated for the comments function to be fixed. Thank you.

I’ve been using this app for years and it has been great. It works well and is a nice quality app. I have a few problems though, and it has to do with the subscription tab. The first problem is that it will often say that someone has posted (showing a little blue dot on their icon) but they haven’t. No big deal, but if I click it to make the blue dot go away, then go back to a different tab (such as the home) it will put the blue dot back. That makes it so there is a red dot on the subscription button which just bothers me. It also usually happens to people with less that 1k subs.
The second problem I have is that I don’t get all community posts. I am subscribed to a lot of people, and a good amount of them make posts regularly. Maybe this is supposed to happen, but I don’t get them all, and I would like to.
The last problem (which I find more funny) is that when I click all to see everyone I am subscribed to, it shows everyone as normal. But, if I leave the app and come back, or slide up on my phone (to show brightness or flashlight) it will switch around the names so that they do not match the right person.

Other than these three problems, the app is amazing.
