YouTube app keeps deleting History.

Hello, recently I’ve been having trouble with the YouTube App on my iPad (which is an 8th gen one on iPadOS 26.1 currently).

First it was when I have a YouTube account signed into the app, as for some reason when I try to click the Manage Accounts button to remove the account, it doesn’t do anything. I then tried to fix this by deleting the app, but the account is still present. Now the issue is that my YouTube History keeps deleting itself, as when I check the Documents & Data it keeps going below 100MB. Can anyone help me with this please?
