Reasons Why YouTube Isn’t Working
There are various reasons why YouTube might not be working for you. You could be experiencing internet issues. Your YouTube app might need an update. Or, perhaps, the YouTube service is experiencing an outage.
How to Fix It When YouTube Isn’t Working
Try the following troubleshooting solutions in order to fix YouTube when it’s not functioning properly:
Close apps on Android. Close apps on iOS.
Also check your network’s bandwidth while you’re focused here. YouTube videos won’t load very well on a network that’s already bogged down with other network activity like online gaming or video/music streaming. Easing off on other network-related stuff, especially on a slow network, will free up some bandwidth which can help make some available for streaming from YouTube. Streaming devices, such as Apple TV, Google Chromecast, Nvidia Shield TV, and Roku, may offer the YouTube app and operating system updates. Check your device maker’s instructions to learn how to install patches on these devices.
