After the recent update, YouTube has become frustrating to use. Every time I try to scroll through the videos, it stops unexpectedly, making it difficult to browse smoothly. This glitch disrupts the viewing experience and wastes time as I constantly have to restart scrolling. I hope YouTube fixes this issue soon because it seriously impacts usability. Until then, it's disappointing to see such

Something is wrong. I can't play the videos. Sometimes if I pause, I can't play it again. Even if I close and restart. Or use any function and it stops playing. I try to read the comments and the video stops playing. Another time I closed the video but the audio continued playing.. worst update youtube fix it fast as possible

The new YouTube update introduces a popup window feature when navigating away from a video. However, after tapping the "X" to close the popup, the video continues playing in the background instead of stopping. This makes it inconvenient to fully exit playback. It would be more user-friendly if closing the popup immediately stopped the video. I hope this issue gets fixed in future updates. നന്ദി🙏
