Hi all. I've noticed that when the youtube app was updated, voiceover support was broken in some areas. For example, when swiping through my favorites, all i hear is the clicking sound. Are there any other apps besides the youtube app that will work with voiceover?

I use YouPlayer; it works well with Voiceover.

I use YouPlayer as well. It's accessible, and you don't have to sit through commercials when you look up videos.

I was able to figure out how to sign in, but now i've noticed that when i'm watching a video, the screen seems to be refreshing, and my phone makes the sound it does when opening something. Why is this happening?

I've noticed that tooo. I really love the app, but that's one part that is annoying. Still, just need to turn your voiceover sound off I think.

Glad I'm not the only one noticing this.

I have used this app before, and like i said, with the latest update, voiceover does not read some things when moving threw them, favorites being one of them.

I use YouPlayer as well and love it.

When I have that issue with the blips and beaps of VoiceOver, I turn sounds off in VO, and it is fine. I sort of find the VO sounds a bit annoying anyway. Have used YouPlayer here for about the past year or so and uninstalled the Youtube app altogether since I no longer have a need for it.

Can YouPlayer still play videos in background or when the screen is locked?

I just tesdted the playing videos in the background, and sadly, no.
