PocketTube: Youtube Manager

Please I beg update the User interface and make it snappier and material design. It's really outdated and slow. Please make it close as possible to the YouTube app. And if you can integrate bookmarking videos in app that syncs to YouTube playlists it would make it a well rounded app. Right now it needs alot of work. Once that is done I'll give it 5 stars. Because the idea is right ! Youtube controls you and does not allow you to customize your feeds.

Great app, but recently on my phone its been saying click to load subscriptions, i click It, but then it just says the same thing again, once I clear my data and relink my yt and gdrive it starts working. But then the problem persists after a few hours or maybe a day, I'm not sure if it's because I have it on my phone, laptop, pc and I use it on the university pcs. I also update my yt app, to see if it fixes the problem, but it doesn't.

I'd like to be able to sync the groups/channels across devices. Even just attempting to import the save JSON file created with chrome on my PC, the app gave an error and said could not access files. Whereas Pixel OS says that no permissions were requested. What's the point of syncing with Google Drive if nothing is actually synced?

great app, I wish I could give them money but it's totally free.. you can however pay for the chrome extensions which I will do. I have a few suggestions: sync across devices, it's fine that I have to import manually but I can't export from another phone.. only from the extension... I'd like to able to donate from the app, it's not a subscription or anything, just a way to be thankful for a job well done

Update: I rated this down because I couldn't use it at all due to no brand account support. The developer has notified me that he has provided an update with the feature. That's indeed the case and I can finally use it. I think it's great. Simple but I think the simplicity works well for this purpose. You can create groups but I recommend doing all that on PC unless you've already organised all your subs. (Quicker on PC.) The loading is very fast. Just choose your group's icon and bam. A+

I've been looking for something like this for a long time. Perfect fit to use with LibreTube and keep your original account feed easily. Just lacks the ability to add a channel to a group from anywhere (right now you can only do it from the first tab), and I would love the subscriptions feed to not reset its current view of the list when switching tab back and forth. Giganternomoustastic thanks to the dev

The best extention on earth (for YouTube) is complete garbage on mobile. At least let me add any link inside to add it into folders. The whole point of this amazingly beautiful and easy to use extention was that I had 10 subscriptions close to my heart rest were in this extention. What's the point of this app if I Nedd to subscribe to channels in order to add them in folders? It's useless and defeats the purpose of the exact thing it was meant to solve. OVER SUBSCRIPTION!!!

I had no idea this app exists - saw a pop up on my desktop today and it lead me here. I had my "folders" created on desktop a while back and they synced with no problems. One problem I have: App opens up in full screen and navigation bar disappears on note9. It's annoying and doesn't serve any purpose. Just make it open like any other app with navigation bar staying at the bottom.

Everything is well put together and very useful.The only downside is that unfortunately the filter is very very slow. If you have a collection where the channels post videos not so frequently, the app takes forever to ghostload the videos from all the other collections. For a productivity app, it's bad to spend much more time waiting for things to load than to scroll. Windows Chrome extension has absolutely no problems, plus some more useful features. I hope the speed of this app can be improved

Update: Clicking on title to go to YouTube app works only when video player is open, and not on videos list page. This increases the steps. Clicking on channel icon works fine. --- Some versions ago, when the video thumbnail was clicked, it directly opens the video in youtube app but now it plays the video in its own player which I don't like. At least there should be an option to change this. Since this change, I am not able to use PocketTube and waiting it to be fixed. ❤️

I was hoping for a subscription solution but doesn't seem to work for me. I can add a folder, but when I try to add subscriptions, and click a character on the keyboard, the keyboard disappears and the screen goes grey. Pity. The list of videos works and clicking them launches YouTube, but that's not what I wanted. Maybe it's caused by changes made by YouTube

Great idea for an app! I hate that YouTube doesn't have this natively. A few usability features to improve: -Channel search within add to group only does exact sequential string search instead of searching whole channel names for the search string -Sometimes there is a lag between clicking to add channel to a group, hitting back, and the channel being added. Sometimes it doesnt show when you hit back until it reloads...leading to people thinking add doesn't work I'm sure. Ill update as used

Brilliant. This makes YouTube into what it should be. I don't know what I'm going to do if you ever stop developing this. I love it. I have 150+ subscriptions and now they're all organized as they should be. Selecting topics and then sending a playlist to YouTube is brilliant along with everything else the extension plus app combo brings. Seriously can't say enough good things about this. Don't stop doing what you do! Did I mention I love it?

Spent a long time organizing tons of subscriptions into multiple categories. Was excited to use the app on a regular basis. But almost three days later, the app kept requesting to reconnect to Youtube even after successfully connecting multiple times. None of my subscriptions would show up. Uninstalled/reinstalled and now all my categories are gone. I'm hesitant to put in all that work again. It would be nice if there was a way for the app to remember your profile and categories.

Great app with the exact functionality I want. Allows me to organize my subscriptions. Easy, looks fine, functional. As of right now the app is not loading for me. Still giving 5 stars though because I haven't had a single problem leading up and this is the only mobile app that I've found that sorts and shows videos. Will update in a week or so.

Update: Within 24 hours of my review the developer published an update which fixed the issue! Amazing, thank you! I only recently discovered this app and really appreciated the ability to organize my subscriptions, but now it has stopped working for some reason. The app opens and I can open up my folders, but then when I click on the channel I want to view, nothing happens! I tried deleting and re-downloading but am still having this problem.
