Ratings and reviews

would you guys please get rid of the auto replay feature on your shorts?! I mean don't even give the option. It's pointless, especially when one can just swipe down to see it again, and is also annoying. lol. Oh yea, would be nice to not have to scroll down from the top of channel subscription list every single time after pressing back button. The algorithm for suggestions on home page has to be tweaked. 90% of videos shown are based on the very most recent video I last watched.

After the android 13 update I can't play videos without actually having the video on the screen (the play/pause button has disappeared from the pull down menu). all of the videos I watch are videos that I can listen to without visuals while I'm playing a game or doing work. It's hard to do either of those things when there's a video thumbnail taking up a portion of my screen. The genre/topic filter at the top of the home page are also gone. When these features return, it'll be 4 or 5 stars.

There are multiple bugs in the new version; after ads play the video just doesn't play at all, ads freeze, and after an ad plays you have to rewind the video and press play again for it to work. Please fix this, I don't want to have to uninstall every update when they come out after realizing that they haven't been fixed. Edit: It's only gotten worse. I have to reset every time an ad shows up, whether it be the beginning ad or the ones in between. You have to reset the video every time. FIX NOW
