[BlindTlk] [BlTlk] youtube off this phone for cause!

[Judy Jones]

Hi, Jude,

I use Youtube all the time from my Samsung device. We have the premium, and use it for everything from watch movies, to downloading music. I also have some insanely long playlists that I add to. 

For news, when we watch live, I like to participate in the live chat, and also like interacting in comments sections.

When I've had visual questions, I get answers right away from the commenters. 

Granted, they are lax on the described videos, but I frankly don't miss them, as I've spent most of my life without it. However, described video is nice when you can get it, but not a must-have for me. There's too much I like to do.

Regarding your tv, does your tv have voice guidance? If it is turned on, then the code should be read aloud to you.

We have an LG tv, and I was able to sign into it using the app.

I apologize in advance if I'm missing the issue for you.

Oh yes, is your phone Android or Apple? What brand TV do you have?

The app keeps on getting worse. Latest instance is the app keeps trying to
log into my tv. First the tv is off but even if it weren't off, how is a
blind person supposed to read the code youtube sends to the tv screen? I
have other ways to listen to videos with spoken content but I will not
have that app on any of my apple and android devices any longer. Many
videos haven't even got spoken content and the turkeys want money for all
of that!  Well, my name is not Stevey Wunder! Anyone with similar problems
needs to remove youtube and let the developers know they messed up.
