Ratings and reviews

Heads-up...when you try to edit a review, the Play store app crashes so I deleted it in order to leave updated feedback. Also, for approximately 3 weeks, the video lags after liking it. You can't X out of that video and watch another one as it will lag too even if you haven't like the next video. You have to completely X out of the video, close the app and come back in to stop the lagging. Otherwise, I love the app. Hope to see a fix soon. Thanks.

So I pay for YouTube premium and I have been having a problem lately. That's super annoying and frustrating. I hate when playlist Auto expand when you click on a video that's in a playlist including the download playlist. I do it so quick. It glitches out and completely makes it useless with clicking any buttons. I have to restart the app every single time. I want to switch to a different video. Nothing on the screen responds! I would love to see a toggle to turn off auto expand playlist please

For whatever reason, the past week, the app keeps crashing in the background. I pay for premium and my content should continue when I turn my screen off. Yet I get maybe 30 seconds of play and then the app crashes and my entire queue is gone. It doesn't even appear in my recently viewed feed. My phone keeps overheating too. You guys seriously need to fix this. I've been paying for nearly 2 years and this quality is unacceptable, especially after Google got rid of its podcast app.
