### 1/5 — It never works 😞

*2026-07-28*

I’ve had the app for years. At best it’ll play your searches song 1 out of 10 times you try. It’s not even hit or miss. It just dosent work. Search works. Playing content never works. It never plays. Stays stuck loading until you force close out app. BTW I tried playing several songs before writing this review. More of the same

### 1/5 — Very disappointed

*2025-10-30*

Doesn’t work just plays audio.  Shame.

**Developer response:** Hello hunkatron,
Thank you for your review.
Please restart your Apple Watch to free up RAM and refresh the video decoder by following the steps below:
- Press and hold the side button until the sliders appear, then tap the Power Off icon and drag the slider to the right to turn off your watch.
- To turn it back on, hold down the side button until the Apple logo appears.
- After restarting, reopen the WristTube app and play the video again.
You can find solutions to similar issues in the “FAQ & User Guide” section on your iPhone or in “Settings → FAQ” on your Apple Watch. Please try the suggested steps if you encounter any similar errors.
Note: Make sure your Apple Watch and iPhone are close to each other and have a stable internet connection. Even if they are near, walls, metal, or strong electromagnetic devices (such as microwaves or routers) may affect the connection. Since the Apple Watch’s processor is not as powerful as the iPhone’s, an unstable internet connection can cause delays in video loading.

Best regards,
The WristTube Team

### 2/5 — Why can't I listen to music with Bluetooth headphones?

*2025-09-04, version 1.6*

Why can't I listen to music with Bluetooth headphones?

At present, I can only listen to music with a watch, and I can't use Bluetooth headphones to listen to music. I think it's very inconvenient. I hope that I can control music with a watch when cycling or driving, and then listen to music with Bluetooth. Improve and update it quickly.

### 4/5 — Very Nice

*2025-07-17*

I got wrist 2+ for my I watch. I have no problems I go to the search engine. I type in the criteria information. I’m looking for my results. Come back just that simple.

### 4/5 — いいけど

*2025-07-07*

サーチしたリストの削除やり方が分かりません。

### 1/5 — 유튜브 계정 안됨

*2025-05-30*

유튜브 계정된다고 기본 앱에서 설명해놓고는 플러스 버전으로 구매하니 계정 등록이 안된다고 함.

### 3/5 — あと一歩

*2025-05-06, version 1.6*

どこぞのWatchTubeと違ってちゃんとYouTubeが見れます！
ですが、ちょっとロードが不安定なのと、バックグラウンド再生が出来ないのがネックでした。

### 5/5 — Amazing player, a few improvements in mind

*2025-05-04, version 1.6*

First of all this is the best YouTube player for the watch that I tried, absolutely amazing, and totally worth the price. It is a game changer for me as I sometimes need to spend a few days without my phone. While it is great, I have a few thoughts on features to be improved:
- scrolling through a video is not ideal. Double tap goes forward 10 seconds, but for going much further in a video, the control doesn’t work well. Tapping on the time control at the bottom mostly doesn’t work. I randomly succeed but mostly it doesn’t work. I have a SE 2 for reference. I suggest that after a tap on the time control, it goes into a « time selection » mode where we could use the crown to go forward or backwards. Or else, when tapping the time control, it could offer a +/- 1 minute control, which would still be a good option for long videos.
- Apple Watch SE 2 using 4g is using more battery than it charges. Even when charging, the battery goes down. I wonder if some additional tweaks or features could be done there, such as loading videos in even lower definition, or even load « sound only » if available, so that it uses even less battery. Thanks again for the great player!

### 1/5 — Not working

*2025-04-13*

Still ask me to get premium has not updated base app, nor is there option to download wristtube+ how do i use it?

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work at all

*2025-03-27*

Never got it to play even one video
