To open the Options menu, tap the Menu icon at the upper-right corner of the screen. Choose Settings, Send feedback, Sign in\/out, or Help. You can also toggle What to Watch. After you have made all necessary changes, you can reopen the YouTube app.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Close_and_reopen_the_YouTube_app\"><\/span>Close and reopen the YouTube app<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are times when you may experience crashes when opening and closing the YouTube app. Those crashes usually occur because the app is experiencing slow or no connection. Try closing and reopening the app to force it to close the old session and start again. You can also force it to close by force stopping it from running. Force stopping YouTube is possible with the Settings app on Android. Go to the Apps &amp; Notifications tab and find the app.<\/p>\n<p>Another cause for app errors and crashes is an outdated version of the YouTube app. There may be several pending updates in the App Store, including security fixes and new features. By force closing and relaunching the app, you can fix a lot of issues, including crashes and slow performance. Also, an updated version of YouTube will show you your account details. This should solve the problem completely. If you are still having trouble, try contacting your network administrator to see if he can grant the YouTube app access to your computer.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Uninstall_the_YouTube_app\"><\/span>Uninstall the YouTube app<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you are looking to uninstall the YouTube app, then you should follow the steps below. You don&#8217;t need to be a tech savvy user to follow these steps. You can follow these steps in case you&#8217;re unsure how to proceed with a particular procedure. If you&#8217;ve downloaded the YouTube app from the Google Play Store, then you can follow these instructions to remove the app. Listed below are the steps you should follow to uninstall the YouTube app from your Android phone.<\/p>\n<p>To uninstall the YouTube app from your Android phone, first go to your phone&#8217;s Settings. Next, choose the app and click on &#8220;Disable.&#8221; By disabling an application, you&#8217;re simply removing it from your phone&#8217;s app screen and preventing it from running in the background. Obviously, you can&#8217;t delete the app entirely from your phone, but this action can save some space and prevent updates.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clear_the_cache_and_data\"><\/span>Clear the cache and data<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To clear the cache and data before opening the YouTube app on your mobile, go to the Settings menu and tap on Clear Cache. The cache is a memory of the website that keeps data from previous visits. It remembers videos you&#8217;ve watched, liked, and cookies that are associated with your account. By clearing the cache, the app will load faster and be easier to track across devices. It will also prevent the app from storing your personal data.<\/p>\n<p>The cache is the memory that your computer uses frequently. The cache saves content and images you&#8217;ve viewed in the past. It can be an issue when the cache fills up, and it can be easily solved by clearing the cache. The cache also takes up a good portion of the device&#8217;s storage. By clearing the cache, you will be able to improve the speed of your device and ensure that it&#8217;s free from malware.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Play_YouTube_videos_in_the_background\"><\/span>Play YouTube videos in the background<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are several ways to play YouTube videos in the background, and one of them is to use picture-in-picture mode. This allows you to watch YouTube videos while you are working on other things. However, you must be a YouTube Premium member to enable picture-in-picture mode, and it&#8217;s not available for every browser. To enable this feature, you should make sure that you&#8217;ve downloaded the latest version of YouTube.<\/p>\n<p>To play YouTube videos in the background, open the YouTube app and go to the settings. To do this, tap on the video&#8217;s settings and choose Picture-in-Picture mode. If you have external speakers, you can select that option instead. If you don&#8217;t have an external speaker, you can play YouTube videos in the background. In both cases, you will see a &#8220;Picture-in-Picture&#8221; effect for a few seconds before the video is stopped.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe frameborder=\"0\" width=\"458\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9HU9g7hi3Xc\" height=\"256\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Do I Open the YouTube App?
