On normal Youtube, its in English, but on this app, it changes the language. There is no way to revert it. ### 3/5 — The app keeps turning off after about one minute of playing. *2026-08-23* The app keeps turning off after about one minute of playing. I’ve tried restarting it, but the problem keeps happening. Please fix this issue! ### 3/5 — Loading problem *2026-08-18* Some of the videos and music can still be played, but the others stop after 1 minute. **Developer response:** Hi, thank you for reporting this issue. The loading problem where you had to press the play button multiple times was caused by a recent connection glitch with our video streaming server. The good news is we have completely resolved this issue from our side. You do not need to update the app, just close and reopen it to enjoy smooth playback. If you still experience any unstable connection, you can try using a VPN like 1.1.1.1 to help stabilize it, or join our community for direct support. Since the problem is fixed, we hope you can give 9Tube another try and consider upgrading your rating to 5 stars to support us. Thank you! ### 4/5 — This is a good applications *2026-06-25* Cause I can listening any music I want **Developer response:** Thanks so much, Ghostemane! 🎶 That's exactly what we built 9Tube for — so you can listen to any music you want, whenever you want, without the hassle. We're genuinely glad it's clicking for you. We're a small team and we keep polishing the app every update, so if there's that one thing missing that would make it a perfect experience for you, we'd love to hear it — your feedback shapes what we build next. Thanks for being with us! 🙌 ### 3/5 — Needs an equalizer *2026-05-27* Nice app but needs equalizer, the sound it gives is altered so it needs to give us the option to equalize the sound **Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words and the honest feedback, Kikihaki! An equalizer is a great suggestion — being able to shape the sound to your taste and your headphones is something we'd genuinely like to bring to 9Tube, so it's now noted on our audio roadmap. On the "altered sound" point: we don't add any coloring on purpose, our goal is clean, faithful playback — but your note prompts us to revisit our audio settings to make sure we're delivering the most neutral sound possible. Thanks for taking the time to help us improve; feedback like this is exactly what moves the app forward. ### 2/5 — Loading problem *2026-05-17* Some of the videos and music can still be played, but the others need to be started by pressing the play button on it 4-5 times. Even when the video loop is on, I still need to press the play button multiple times. **Developer response:** Hi, thank you for reporting this issue.

Thank you! ### 4/5 — Great app, 1 small missing feature though *2026-03-04* Car play is good, background play is great, smooth UI Only issue is we should be able to see the songs currently in the queue, move them around, add and remove - should be easy considering the playlist UI can be recycled **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback and for highlighting both CarPlay and background play experience. We really appreciate your suggestion about being able to view, reorder, add, and remove songs in the current queue. This is a very valuable idea, and we agree it would make the playback experience much more convenient and complete. We’ll continue developing and optimizing this feature in upcoming updates to make queue management smoother and more flexible. Thanks again for supporting the app and helping us improve it. ### 3/5 — Advert *2026-02-28, version 999.96.3* Why am I still getting ads even though I've paid for the app? ### 5/5 — Pls thêm tính năng Tải xuống *2026-01-29, version 999.96.3* Mong ad ra thêm mục Tải xuống offline ### 5/5 — Khen app *2026-01-29, version 999.96.3* Nhạc nền chạy rất mượt, sẽ trải nghiệm thêm và ủng hộ cho nhà phát triển, cố lên mọi người 👌 ### 5/5 — Nice *2026-01-26, version 999.96.3* Nice ### 5/5 — Trải nghiệm Music với 9Tube *2026-01-22, version 999.96.3* Thật tuyệt vời khi sử dụng nó play Music online với âm thanh chất lượng thay thế cho YouTube Music một cách đúng nghĩa .

Update the old volume indicator too. Thanks! **Developer response:** Thanks so much for the thoughtful feedback, bro and for the 5 stars! 🙌 You're right: the volume and brightness wheels on the sides can get in the way of the video, and moving the playback controls lower would keep the screen clearer. This is exactly the kind of specific, actionable feedback that helps us prioritize. We're planning to give the player a cleaner layout, including a way to tuck those side wheels away, bring the controls down, and refresh that dated volume indicator you pointed out. Thanks for taking the time to spell it out; it genuinely shapes what we build next. Stay tuned! 🎬 ### 5/5 — Blessed Heart *2026-05-24* Feeling It 9Tube! **Developer response:** So glad you're feeling the vibe with 9Tube!

Would rate 5 stars but for now need that problem to be solves. **Developer response:** Hi, thank you for your honest review! The "no sound" issue you experienced was caused by a temporary server connection glitch with the video stream, which has now been fully fixed from our side. You just need to close and reopen the app to enjoy it normally. If you still encounter any connection issues, you can try using a VPN like 1.1.1.1 to stabilize it, or join our community so I can support you directly. Since the issue is completely resolved, I hope you can give 9Tube another look and consider upgrading to a 5-star rating to encourage us.

As there is no actual sign in button on this app. You will have to sign in on YouTube and there’s the problem because you’re already be signed in on YouTube. ### 5/5 — Lôi đứng videos *2026-03-23, version 999.96.4* Cập nhật xong, cứ mở vid rồi tắt màn thì moitj chút tự động đứng không load nữa, xong bấm dô mới chạy tiếp, rồi một chút nữa là hj nữa.
