- ToucanLoucan 3y agoReally I would say the exact opposite, at least with regard to YouTube. Their Apple TV app is genuinely the only bad Apple TV app I've ever used. Constant problems with audio de-sync, random freezes and blank screens. By comparison I don't remember the last time any of the others I use (infuse, Max, D+, Prime) have had any issues at all.
- aurareturn 3y agoAgreed with Apple TV app. YouTube likes to set my video quality to 480p by default. When I manually change it to 1080p for a video, it turns my 1.5x playback speed to normal. Finally, it will desync my audio if I change it back to 1.5x. I’ve gone through this process 1000 times over the last year. It’s become muscle memory on my remote. YouTube still hasn’t fixed it.

- blondin 3y agoamen. one of the worst apps on apple tv. it got to the point i don’t even try to like videos. or rewind them. or do anything while they are playing lest i cause a restart. buffering. a random video to start playing, etc.
- theshackleford 3y agoI don’t doubt it obviously, but I wonder what triggers it as I’ve never experienced any of these personally on the Apple TV app. I got other reasons I dislike it, but many of them stem from YouTube itself being more terrible than ever.
