    No way in hell I could be bothered. I have on very rare occasions watched instructional Vids on my tablet when I was trying to do something as I went but that was out of desperation rather than choice or enjoyment.

    When on the go I find it comfortable to watch a vid on my 6" phone that still has the proper 16:9 ratio. Another thing that has become ancient as they are all now these stupid narrow bar phones, only useful for Facebook messenger stuff.
    I do have myopia so I only have to take my glasses off for a reasonable viewing angle although people my age have reading glasses for this. Thanks to the very high resolution you still never see any pixelation.

    OB, I still fail to see the benefits of using an app over a browser unless the app has a built in ad blocker, which obviously would never come from the Google Play store.

    With the growing trend of people using their phone as a payment and ID system I would be careful about installing apps that use the Internet, so I chose to keep them at a bare minimum of known and trusted.
    Not that I trust any app solely based on it's presence on the Play store either.

    Have to say, this works perfectly, better than expected, thanks admin

    It is not some old version of YT, its a relatively current version, with current sign in and device code linking.
    Works exactly as advertised. NO ADS!

    Sadly, i have suffered some rebooting as other have reported

    I got my app from Github, i see there is a newer version on another site, but you have to wonder
