This app no longer works. It was great!  It’s broken by new OS. I hope developer fixes this then it will be a 5 star app - it’s super useful and minimalist

### 5/5 — AMZAING

### 1/5 — Does NOT Work.  Crashes

*2020-11-16, version 1.0*

Does NOT Work.  Crashes
Was good when it worked prior to iOS update to 14.0
After update from iOS 14.0....no longer works at all.  Please fix.  Thanks

### 4/5 — Just stopped working (iPadOS 14 beta 4)

*2020-10-26, version 1.0*

Let me start by saying I've been a daily user for month the app has been a workhorse for me, as i do tons of learning through youtube.
 
With that said i’m a beta iPad user and so with the last two beta updates PIP has stopped being able to be minimized in a floating window. still maximizes but pressing the float icon switches back to web browser view and stops playback.

I am sure you guys will fix this immediately, but I figured this make help you debug before the new beta goes public. Thanks for the great work and I will change my rating once the app is in a working state again.

### 5/5 — Not working

*2020-10-13, version 1.0*

After ios 14 update,it started crashing.

### 1/5 — Disappointed.

*2020-09-22, version 1.0*

Use to pop up and be able to listen to audio. Can’t even do it anymore. And I don’t like silence when I’m drawing.

### 5/5 — It’s like the YouTube app, only it’s actually good

*2020-09-19, version 1.0*

Title says it all

### 5/5 — Great app

*2020-08-31, version 1.0*

This is a great app. I just wish it would allow me to skip ads when I’m given the option on YouTube.
