Data safety

Safety starts with understanding how developers collect and share your data. Data privacy and security practices may vary based on your use, region, and age. The developer provided this information and may update it over time.
The last update is just awful. The picture in picture video doesn't allow anymore to switch to sound only mode. You have to close the picture in picture and click play on the notifications widget. It happens many times that as well that a random video starts as soon as you open the app. Happened on my previous s22 ultra and still happening on my S25 ultra. Edited. Even more frustrating when random videos are playing automatically in full screen when you open the app, what is that???

And now a bonus annoyance that it's loading shorts when I launch. Pointless AI bits that you can't turn off. I don't want or need an ai generated summary, it's just taking up real estate that could have something more useful in it. Enough of this AI rubbish not everyone thinks it's great at least let us turn it off please. You're also missing a trick with premium. If the price point was lower I'd happily cough up but I'm not spending more than Netflix for YouTube. Come on, it's YouTube.

No way to stop seeing a channel even if blocked! Some channels may be triggering, offensive, annoying etc. yet blocking doesn't stop their viewing / being suggested!! Suggests videos I've already seen as if unwatched!! It takes power away from users in a frankly barbaric and incredibly preventable way. Small preview window has also acquired MORE bugs not less. It's basically none functional now. The pause button didn't work on the preview screen and now not even the cross button is working.
