Describe the bug

Trying to download any YouTube video just gets stuck at the 'waiting to download...' stage. It downloads maybe 50% then proceeds to sit at waiting. I cannot pause and resume it, only cancel or delete the download options are available.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Disable download manager from YouTube plus settings
  2. Open any video
  3. Click download and go to downloads tab
  4. Find the video to not be downloading but 'waiting to download...'

Crash log (if the app crashes)

No response

Additional context

  1. Video downloading works normally with the stock YouTube client.
  2. It has never worked for me on any ytliteplus versions, not just this one.

Have you kept the same preferences each time you upgraded or did you do a clean install each time?

There may be a conflicting YTABConfig flag in the A/B settings so I'd recommend going there and searching "download" to see if anything looks off.

I've tried not changing any setting except disabling download manager as well. There are a lot of A/B flags in settings and they seem to be fine. Are you able to download videos properly?

I am. But using a much older device so 🤷🏾‍♂️

Might be worth noting that I also experienced this same issue with various other YouTube tweaks over the past 2 years or so, including uYouPlus and uYouEnhanced. I know those apps have a lot of tweaks in common with YTLitePlus, so it's possible one of those are the issue?

I don't think it's the tweaks. I installed the vanilla YouTube IPA using an enterprise cert, and it still doesn't download videos.

I can't test this myself as I don't have premium, probably linked to entreprise certificate, can you try with Sideloadly with your Apple ID, thank you
