ProTube (Cydia version) 1.12.4 is out with a fix for downloads, as well as improved ad blocking :) Sorry for the long delay for the download fix!

It‘s also so awesome to see how many people are still using the app even though it‘s been taken off the App Store close to 3 months ago. It‘s still working perfectly, no update needed :)

ProTube launched on the App Store 3 years ago! In total people used the app for over 1000 years and watched more than 150m videos since then. It‘s been a good run 🙂 I would have loved to keep it up on the store, but I‘m still so proud of what the app achieved!

Using ProTube you can play a video in 4k and then AirPlay it to an Apple TV and it uses h.264. This is just part of Google's codec war, trying to force VP9 on everybody. Too bad Google killed ProTube :( teapaw.org/JonasGessner/status/91…

There are many news articles saying that Apple TV 4k can't play 4k YouTube videos because it does not support the VP9 codec. YouTube 4k videos also exist as h.264 streams so they can be played. The actual reason is that YouTube has not updated their app to play h.264 4k videos.

Thanks! It's awesome when someone notices these small things :)

YouTube serves 4k videos in 2 different codecs. One is unsupported but the other one is supported. It is possible to play 4k YT on iOS/tvOS

That is unfortunately not possible with the YouTube API :/ Otherwise the app would have that feature already

ProTube 2.5.9 is available in the App Store now. It adds a workaround for a bug in the YouTube API that caused some feeds to fail loading.

Anyone else having issues with Protube after the last update? @JonasGessner @ProTube4iOS Please help us. reddit.com/r/ios/comments/6o…
Replying to @MonoWarrior00 @JonasGessner
It's something YouTube needs to fix on their side. They probably won't do that soon and I will prob update ProTube and use a workaround

It is untelated to the update, happens on all versions. It's a transient bug related to batch queries in the YouTube API.

I'm aware of the "The data could not be read" error message in ProTube. It's a bug on YouTube's side and I hope they will fix it soon 😑

The latest ProTube update (2.5.8) adds iOS 11 support, fixes some bugs and adds haptic feedback. Please leave a 5⭐️ rating if you like it :)

i've already submitted a new update that fixes the iOS 8 crash. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Replying to @DeaNHtiD99
it seems like it's a bug on YouTube's end.
