Did Youtube remove keyboard support?
As the title says. I recently updated the youtube app, only to find that none of the keyboard shortcuts work. What gives?

Why do they always add and then remove features ? Why not just release the features when they are ready instead ?

Exactly! I thought the new features were great - use the arrows to control back skip/front skip and the volume up and down. So easy, much more like desktop!

I just thought my keyboard was acting up...
Cheers for the heads up!

It’s back in Ver 15.46.4!

Damn, this was one of the best new features that was recently added. Hope they bring it back.

Anyone remember which version had that feature? I have jailbreak and may be able to downgrade the app to get the features back. Please let me know 🙏

I’m jailbroken too, downgraded to the last 5 versions but it doesn’t bring the functionality back. Seems to be a server side change.

Same here... Shortcuts on the Youtube App stoped working...
Unrelated or not: In the Mail app, the delete message shortcut also stopped working...
I’m wondering now where the fault is... or if they may be related.
Damn, I hate when good features stop working!
Don’t play with us!
