    Hey, thanks, you may be right. I just checked my settings and it was originally clicked on the last one, restricted. So I switched it to the top one. unrestricted.

    And I vaguely recall getting a notification sometime ago that YouTube was taking up too much battery and they asked me if I wanted to optimize the settings? I’m like “sure yeah whatever.”

    But since then I think that’s when I haven’t been able to play the video while phone is hibernating or while I multitasking on different apps.

    Thank you. hopefully now that I switch the setting I can go back to my full premium perks.

      Or, you know, try LibreTube. Does the job for free, and it includes SponsorBlock. Just don’t forget to change the battery setting to unrestricted.

          Valid question. If I leave LW on optimized, Android will kill it about a minute after I turn my screen off, which ruins my podcast experience (I like to sometimes watch my podcasts as well as some of them are enhanced by visuals)
