Bright Focus Helped Me Understand Alzheimer’s and MCI
I was diagnosed with MCI in 2019 by my PCP. He referred me to Neurologist in December 2025 because of worsening of MCI. After Neurologist at PARADIGM, he reviewed all my recent bloodwork from my PCP and Rheumatologist, gave me similar clinical memory, motor, and balance Tests, a brain MRI, EEG, and had his on-site Labcorp Lab draw my blood for the new FDA Approved Lumipulse Beta Amyloid 42 and pTau217 blood test, after he reviewed everything he had me come back in and told me I tested high for Beta Amyloid Plaques and pTau217 tangles in my blood and brain.

Used to be so much better
Like the title implies, this app used to be so much better. Now? Now it’s a cesspool of corporate greed, you cannot go 30 seconds without seeing some kind of advertisement, and with each new update they find new ways to have ads take up your device’s screen and your time. Blocking ads you don’t wanna see is purely cosmetic, it’ll claim “you shouldn’t see this ad again, but you might see other ads by the advertiser”. Which effectively means “they paid us, so you can deal with it”. Reporting ads for not adhering to YouTube’s own guidelines for ads is an even bigger joke, a good 85% of advertisem

Finally making the money they deserve
They’ve added banners over videos after ads have played that require multiple taps to dismiss. There is not one human alive whose experience is improved by this change, unless their only contact with the platform is in their stock portfolios. It’s good, though; I’m happy knowing that every bit of joy I lose dismissing an ad I’ve already skipped is going to someone who really did something important with their life. Unfortunately, the fact that I, one of the swine, am being left any shred in which to find solace is an unforgivable mistake. Hopefully one day they’ll just chain my ankles behind m

Latest update auto plays on wrong user account
The latest update has broken the app. Speaking as an iPhone 11 user, here. Never had this issue with the app. While viewing a short, rather than loop, sometimes it will start playing another short but will still show the original video’s account and comments, it really strange. On a secondary ongoing issue I have. When a video has ended and an ad comes on, it’s INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING, that if I’m scrolling looking for what to watch next, I’m very rudely pushed back to the top so so the non video portion of the ad can load. It does the opposite of making me want the product, it goes on my never

Latest update issues
Overall, great app. It’s a streaming app so what’s not to like. Easy to use, ad-free or ad version, no biggie. But my biggest issue now is for some reason on my iPhone and iPad, when I go to delete a video by sliding left, the trash icon appears behind the video name and is essentially behind the name of the video unable to delete. So I have to pull the history page down for it to load again, and then I can swipe left and delete a video from my history without the trash icon disappearing. I’ve uninstalled both, thinking maybe it was a bad update, something of the sort. But still, as I’m writin

5 stars with a few fixes
The clarity, the speed of the videos sound qualities are all five star. There are a couple suggestions I would like to make, however number one for on screen performance they used to be the three dots at the end of the title area when you’re looking at the review of the video before you start it those dots are gone and those critically allowed you to save the video to the watch later list and several other functions, but you can no longer do that without having your phone connect it up, which isn’t always practical so please put that that capability back on the screen. It would be appreciated.

How Artificial Intelligence is changing you tube and the wider internet
I think AI technology is making you tube smarter and more efficient than every before the goal is to outsmart the algorithm which might seem impossible because the algorithm operates in a different way than the human mind it could possible take years and that’s a big if becuase there are so many distractions and so much to see billions of videos possibly more who knows??? However I know no rather I think that if a person watches only Islamic positive videos and avoids negative sinful content for a period of time then the person might

I have patience, and it pays off.
A while, back friends of mine that I was just being acquainted with some of my stories. They’re very colorful and insane. Have a channel out there cause even my stories are very immersive. So for like happy year I had a video that were not publicly available ones worked little little worse. I watched myself over and over. Then I would allow someone to watch it and tell me their feedback on. I decide January 1 which is horrible idea because it’s so cold and my supposed to be done outside. And I put up some videos and they’re not even really the way I want them done they’re kind of in the middle

Life Changing App!!
This app is so much better than TikTok in my opinion, you have short form videos and long form, all by different creators! The shorts features are impressively convenient for major scrolling sessions! And the long form videos are great to watch if you are cleaning your room, or just to watch and listen. There are hundreds of great creators who listen to their audience and have merch, and do giveaways, etc, etc. There are major news sites like CNN 10 and others who make videos on news and give their opinions on everything. Everything about the app I feel like is made to make the consumer feel

Ad problems
If you’re gonna force people to buy your premium make it affordable for everyone. Having 8 ads before, in the middle of, and after a video is beyond annoying. And the next button feature doesn’t need to exist. The fact that you added it proves you’re putting too many ads in your forced as segments. People who can’t afford it use ad blockers cause it’s significantly cheaper. Stop with the ad overflow and people will probably flock to this app more, you’re being outclassed by every other streaming platform and it’s mainly cause yall don’t make your ad count and ad times reasonable. 5+ ads, each

These updates coming with a complete layout change are NOT accessibility friendly! I have eye problems and have low vision! Right as I think I’ve mastered how it’s set up and I DON’T need assistance with using the app, YOU CHANGE IT! I was just using the app 2 or 3 hours ago- finally used to the new layout- and now I’m back and it updated and it’s different AGAIN!

Default App Behavior Ruins Every Video Experience
When scrolling to select a video the moment you stop to read a title, or look at the poster frame, the video instantly starts playing. By default there is no audio. If you touch the video to watch it advertising will play, which is expected. What’s not expected is that when the opportunity to leave the ads and go to the video appears, the video CONTINUES playing with audio, but 5, 10, or whatever number of seconds in from when you touched it. This means in order to watch from the beginning the user must use the navigation. Very annoying since the initial play back is silent and instantane

Stop changing things and bring back the old stuff
I really like it since it has so many options and it’s generally a great thing, and without it would be bad and weird especially on weekends since that’s when I watch it most. But recently it updated and made it so that when you watch a video and click on all the videos made by that channel, it shows the longest videos instead of the most recent ones. And it says “recently uploaded” but I hate it a lot. I cannot see anything new that person has made unless I search up “____ newest videos” and that won’t work either because the search thing is weird though I’m fine with the search. Also, you c

Unnecessarily cluttered, non-intuitive, with multiple issues
I am surprised at the percentage of 5-star ratings for this app which I find substandard especially given that the service is owned by Google. It is indeed cluttered and has an unnecessarily steep learning curve, but let’s be a little specific too. Among its (numerous) problems, if one searches for and saves a group of videos already packaged as a playlist — course lectures, say — it will appear as a playlist in your collection but not on the list of playlists accessed from the menu by which a new but related video could be added to it. Such a video, even though it would be most usefully seen

I remember back then, YT was great! Everyone who made and watched videos had much fun. However, yt is now adding changes to the app that many creators and people alike are not liking. Its states that people who make kid friendly videos will not have personalized advertisements for the safety of children, in case the child gives away any important information. Many creators are devastated since most get their money from their YT career. The money they earn will drop. And, many creators have stated this as a problem.
