It don’t work
How can I end my subscription
Haven’t found shorts yet hope there is
The videos are all literally one min long and shows nothing but those
The search is worthless and I don’t know if it’s because you need the “plus” version to get that feature. I paid for this “non-plus” version and wished I put that money towards WristTube. That watch app works waaaaaaaaaaay better than this one. I would recommend WristTube over this hands down. If I could, I’d ask for a refund for this app.
I purchased it based on the description that it works independent without iPhone. I tried it many times and it does not work. iPhone is required to be on for it to work.
Misleading, as you are unable to log into your account. Whole point of having this on the watch is to have access to your account which you do not.
I can watch videos on my Apple Watch and search for what I want to watch. Perfect for when I’m bored.
検索がほぼ完全一致でしか引っかからないです、これは有料ではきつい…
It’s a scam
misleading app, can really only search for shorts and no full videos
Typed the title and channel of a video I wanted to watch verbatim and couldn’t find the video. Instead a million YouTube shorts popped up.
