There were great native third-party YouTube clients in the official Store on Windows Phone. On the contrary, I missed my Youtube client after I had to switch back to Android (until I found NewPipe).
- johnchristopher 3y agoThe app gap was the generic bland comment about windows phone every writer put in their reviews/articles/tests. I didn't feel I was missing many apps with my lumia 640 and I don't think it's what solely derailed the platform but that mantra felt like death by a thousand same cuts. It was as boring and stupid as reading "yeah that igpu is fine but not for gaming of course unless you restrict yourself to 2d or indie games" is.
