Hey, thanks, you may be right. I just checked my settings and it was originally clicked on the last one, restricted. So I switched it to the top one. unrestricted.

And I vaguely recall getting a notification sometime ago that YouTube was taking up too much battery and they asked me if I wanted to optimize the settings? I’m like “sure yeah whatever.”

But since then I think that’s when I haven’t been able to play the video while phone is hibernating or while I multitasking on different apps.

Thank you. hopefully now that I switch the setting I can go back to my full premium perks.
