Can't comment. Please add a like/unlike function for the comments in the app please it's 2016 already! Finally google does something right yay, but still minus one for the ugliness of the new commenting ui.

Allow us to go in incognito mode so our search and video history won't be tracked 1. Add a dark mode/theme please. Also, please add the option to have auto-generated playlists made as well. 2. And hopefully, for YouTube Red subscribers, allow us to watch movies and shows that cost everyone(so far) for free, that'd be awesome. 3. For YouTube Red subscribers, let us play YouTube on multiple devices at the same time 4. Allow YouTube Red subscribers to download videos and keep them downloaded, even if the video gets deleted or removed. #MakeYoutubeGreatAgainAgain #WakeUpYT

Very good app Its more useful and good

Diem Judilla October 9, 2016

Latest update SLOW app performance? Before the last two updates, Youtube videos load fast, now it seems to take a good amount of time even to view a few seconds of video even with good WIFI and low resolution settings. Your Youtube for Kids app on my Android phone performs much better! What gives?! The play controls on screen are also irritating.

Dredyn Cade October 8, 2016

Doesn't describe update + Just terrible App no longer lets you buffer, it loads 10 seconds of video to maybe a minute then stops, why did it take away the buffer ability, it used to let me know the size and how much it had loaded like, 2.3 mb/12.0 mb, which was a crazy convenient thing but now it just has pause and play and doesn't load, the update is complete crap and takes away your ability to buffer and turn your phone off or go to the home screen while a video would buffer not to mention the out of control ads, complete crap YouTube!

Ratana Long October 10, 2016

Commenting is annoying You should relocate the "read more" away from people's names. Maybe move it more to the right of the comments so no one will almost always accidently select the user. Just saying.

Lewis Robinson October 8, 2016

Recent updates have been great (Galaxy S6) Thanks so much for moving replies further to the right, it was quite hard to distinguish between them and seperate comments before

Lolzers 27 October 9, 2016

Doesn't work. Every time I try to watch a video it tells me that my connection has been lost and I know that it's not the WiFi as I've tried it in different places.I have tried to uninstall it but it only gets rid of the updates. What can I do to fix it?

Sam Love October 10, 2016

This has been ignored for almost two years I've been watching YouTube on this device for almost two years now. The app has constantly had a problem with my phone going to sleep. It will often desync the audio to a VERY noticeable degree. I have to rewind the video, often multiple times, just for the app to get the audio correct (Ads also do this now). Even that doesn't work sometimes. This also happens if a move to another app temporarily. I love this app, but this has gone on for too long. Not many other video problems except for this.

HortyMonkey71 October 9, 2016

Laggy Before the updates I could watch videos fine,but now the videos are laggy and slow as hell. They take like 5-10 minutes to buffer and work properly.

7 Ghost? October 8, 2016

Need U guys plz update like if u can chose ur own songs plz and edit plz I have no computer but in to it my birthday in Nov 17 plz add this plz there is a little bit to edit which suck no affense but it suck plz add this

Nate October 10, 2016

Constantly stops to buffer and freezes This issue is with the app itself, my WiFi is a high speed and if I try to watch the same video using YouTube in my browser the issue doesn't happen.

Tiff The Pro Gamer Muela October 8, 2016

FEEDBACK Hello um there is something wrong with this like everytime when I put my account on it kicks me out of it and when I click it again nothing loads if you fix this than THANK YOU 😆

Andy 75 October 9, 2016

Glitchy I am getting a glitch that pauses my video even thiugh it does not need to bufer and it lets no video be watchable because it pauses it as SOON as i unpause it... it makes it imlossible to watch anything

Tammy Hendrick October 8, 2016

Learn alot from YouTube! This is my go-to for most information on my lifestyle diet keto Style. Love all those people that teach me how to do the keto way keep keep up the good work YouTube.

george weimer October 8, 2016

Sucks.....Buffers to much and takes forever to load. I prefer Spotify!😆 From Giggle, what do you expect and probably selling all your song information to The FEDs! NSA?

Omar Guitarist October 8, 2016

Omar Guitarist this app need video downloader can developers add this tool to make this app more perfect many people search for app contain all type of download such as mp3 and mp4 and more please please guys fixed this problem and add video downloader god bless all of you 😊😊

Pizza Cake October 9, 2016

Slow There has been a slight problem that I haven't had since last using the app, the problem is that the audio and the video aren't in sync. It's not just on one video that this happens, but on all, even in ads.

Erney Vargas October 8, 2016

Hmph En la versión anterior al reproducir el primer vídeo se cerraba, había que abrirla por segunda vez y el error ya no pasaba

Namjoo Panda October 8, 2016

About Restricted mode. Some videos of mine are hidden when I enabled Restricted mode. If they are mine, why can't I watch them? You should think about that and do something. I don't know if you have ever seen the review of your app or not, but you should.

Jorge Narez October 9, 2016

I wish there was a NO STARS OPTION.. Youtube video on android. is horibble. It stops almost everytime inbetween 2 seconds and the vid is all grey and static.. wth?

Archontasius October 10, 2016

Constantly lagging on KitKat It's OK on my lollipop phone. But constantly lag on my KitKat Lenovo yoga tablet. Please fix

Levi A October 8, 2016

I have a problem. Ever since the new update, videos have been set to 240p. Before that they were automatically 480p. Please fix this and I will gladly rate 5 stars.

Richard T. October 9, 2016

Fix video bugs and add dark theme to YT. [BUGS] Sometimes when changing the time of the video, the video freezes but audio plays. This is very annoying. [FEATURES] Add a dark theme to YouTube which YT Gaming has.

Meri Holland October 8, 2016

Glitchy If I click a video, I only get a loading screen. I have to close the video then reopen it and MAYBE it will play. I have full service, so it's 100% the app.

October 9, 2016

Can't change resolution. Fix this google. Ideally, I'd like to set a preferred resolution per device. I had to revert to a version from may 2016 to get decent playback again.

Shrikrishna Dwivedi October 9, 2016

Can't download offline videos Earlier I downloaded 6 videos on YouTube. Each of around 7 MB now it doesn't save any video. It says waiting for wifi even when my wifi is connected 😞😭

IbbyPlays PS4 October 9, 2016

Crashes all the time I rewind ⏪ the video and then cross it off go on the same video again and YouTube crashes. Xperia Z5 premium

SurfWay International Dannysh October 10, 2016

Huawei P8 Lite It works perfectly. You should have at least 3mb download speed. Otherwise it will be to slow & will make you angry.

Anudeep ND October 9, 2016

Problem! I can't set default video quality to HD, always switches back to 240p. Very annoying!!

Aravind Mohan October 8, 2016

The audio is crashing While watching video it stops for few seconds and then the link between Audio and video will break

Jefferson Steelflex October 8, 2016

Great feedback Great app, and pretty good response on giving feedback. I assumed the Help&Feedback option was there for bs but actually responded and helped. Nice

ben hollands October 8, 2016

October 9, 2016

Playlists updated? It isn't mentioned in the update details, but I guess it's just impossible to look at a playlist's details without auto-playing it now?
