YouTube to limit default video quality around the world for a month

I like the concept of it, but the app has atrocious UX on mobile.

For a specific example, it has a nice toggle above every track, where you can flip between video and audio-only. It works great, except that I cannot find a way to force it to stay on audio-only. As soon as the current track ends, the toggle resets back to "video".

And this kind of stuff is all over the app.

You can toggle off the video mode in the app setting.

You should try Newpipe if you're on Android.

that's weird, I use the app and don't have this problem. I love the UI even on iOS.
