It’s nice that there are no ads, but there are some frustrating features that have been bothering me while I’ve used this for the past week. When listening to a video, if I turn off the screen, it feels like a coin flip if the video will continue playing or not, and when I open the app again, the video stays as a black screen until I move the progress bar of the video around. Also, if I’m watching in full screen mode and the video ends, the video will automatically loop itself even though I have the loop feature off. And if the video ends while the screen is off, it’ll automatically move to another random video. When the video does loop itself, it’ll play audio for a few seconds then mute itself, and the same thing will happen occasionally if I want to go to a certain point in a video. One last issue is that when listening on earbuds and I use them to pause/play a video, it’ll only resume a video part of the time. More often than not it doesn’t continue the video but start up the music from my music app. So quite a few frustrations in trying to use this app. It’d be nice if they all got fixed.

Aside from the ad-free experience, this app has some bugs that make it difficult to use it. For instance, when you switch to full screen viewing, the entire UI changes which makes the captions disappear and the menu becomes unusable. Also, when moving between normal viewing and the mini-player, is also hard to use. It gets stuck in random parts of the screen, and then I have to restart the app to fix it. Lastly, after a few weeks of using the app, the background play feature stopped working, and the only way to get it to work is to also restart the app. After 2 or 3 times of it actually functioning, it stopped again. Please just add a full screen feature, and just fix the bugs here and there.

Looks like YT without the ads, but the experience can be as frustrating as having to sit thru the ads themselves. The app is slow and unresponsive at times forcing me to close and reopen the app. Full screen is 180° upside down from that of the YT app and other video players. I can like videos and save them to a list. I can also subscribe to channels, but I cannot choose to silence notifications. I do like that the app can play videos while the screen is locked and that it doesn’t collect user data and hope that an update is released that fixes the issues I described.
