Can you elaborate ont he crashes more? when i still had an android phone newpipe was the only app i actively enjoyed using because it was just reliable and simple. the only issues i ever had were the same everyone had when youtube broke the functionality and usually there was a dev build ready in a few hours with a patch and then a proper update pretty shortly after on the main app. but i never used it to sign in to youtube so might be a difference. i specifically chose newpipe because i didn’t need to deal with google’s nonsense when using it
- interloxia 3y agoI have had a lot of ui crashes unrelated to YouTube over the years. Perhaps similar to the f-droid client. Not enough that it's unusable, mostly, but enough to try to avoid it either by suffering through ads or using an alternative. For example, this release fixes a foreground service crash that made background play unusable for me for a while.
- pydry 3y agoI had a lot more crashes until I started using the official newpipe repository. The fdroid version lags by a few days. I think it should just be taken off fdroid.
- autoexec 3y agoI'm using an old version (2.5.2) and just opening a video will cause an error ("Sorry, something went wrong" banner) but the video still plays so I don't care. rarely the whole thing will crash, but I've only seen that after hours of abuse (hundreds of videos viewed/downloaded) The only other problem I regularly see are queued downloads being suddenly/silently deleted which is frustrating because you have to try to remember what it was you'd queued up. Maybe that's been fixed already?
