Hmm i dont know, its not that iOs made a big difference on the last update so Youtube wont be compatible with. I have written to youtube again, lets see what they’ll reply.

I am linking this to apple because they have removed Kosovo from google Maps at all, and its not fair. It is a country after all

Thanks

I would think Google controls their map app, not Apple.


Apple has it's own map app.


I can see Pristina in Apple's map app as well as Google's.

Youtube reply was that they are available all over the world. Youtube app is working on older versions of iOs, as soon as i updated my phone youtube crashed. My friend did not update yet and youtube works just fine.

Sounds like Youtube needs an update. It's their task to keep up with iOS updates.


They show the current version is compatible with iOS11 and above.

App availability could also be by the choice of the app developer.

Don't be so quick to blame Apple. If Youtube has removed the app, Apple has no control over that.


What did Youtube say when you asked them?
