Really? I've been on the Public Betas for months and YouTube has worked fine.
Edit: I'm on an iPhone 5C for what it's worth.

i cant get videos to load
Didn't fix it.
Reset network settings usually helps with this sort of thing after an update.
see if any of these will help.
i always forget about it since I don't really use it anymore, but updating iTunes and plugging into it is also an option
Works fine for me

Videos are really slow to start on my YouTube. I assumed it was an ISP thing.
The slider on embedded YouTube videos has been fixed for me after the update (iPad Air 2). Sweet!

First impressions of night shift are very positive from me. Seemed jarring when I first enabled it, but after half an hour or so of usage it feels more comfortable on my eyes.
Haven't really fiddled with anything else, but I'm looking forward to being able to add stuff to a playlist without adding it to my library.
Also no issue with YT here. 6s+

What setting does everyone have their night shift at? Center like the default or more orange?
Just at default currently.

I try and try to download iOS 9.3 but always get:
Now I’ve downloaded the update on iTunes, have 10GB free on my Mac, try to update the phone and can’t because it says I don’t have enough space on my Mac to backup my iPhone... even though my iPhone is set to backup to iCloud.
Plus when I plugged my iPhone to the computer, which I haven’t done in months, it opened Photos and asked if I wanted to import a bunch of “new” photos, which are nothing but many year old photos in my library, which I may have visualised recently on my phone, and I have iCloud Photo Library set and running. Why is it asking me if I want to import photos already in my library? IDK. I’m just... tired of all these things.

Thanks.
But so you’re saying that it is normal behaviour for iTunes to backup your phone even when you didn’t set it to, when you just want to update the phone? I’m pretty sure I’ve even updated friends’ phones on my computer via iTunes (for example to install Golden Master releases) and didn’t need to back them up.
Also I am a bit afraid of putting my phone into DFU. I actually thought DFU was just for restores. But anyway I don’t trust my iCloud backup that much, had a lot of trouble last time I needed to restore from it (when I bought the 6s+). So I fear getting stuck.
I am just thinking that maybe when I downgraded by "updating” to a previous version of iOS some months ago, (think it was the iOS 9 betas), something got messed up since, even though I’ve updated my phone some times after that, and is currently running 9.2.1, and normal functioning is fine, perfect even. Just all these issues with backups and iCloud, and iOS updates and app updates etc.
I’m giving serious thought to start over fresh, but for that I’ll need to get iExplorer or something, to backup some app data, especially messages.

At least for me it was normal. I just updated my iPhone and iPad through iTunes for the first time ever today, and even though they had recent iCloud backups it also did an iTunes backup right before. So it seems like the expected procedure to me
DFU mode for updates doesn't hurt anything, but I understand being nervous about it. It was just the one way I knew how to bypass the photo syncs and the local backups and stuff.

Breaking news: YouTube finally updates app. Finally includes slide over and split view support
might want to consider resetting as a new phone somewhere down the line. With icloud photo library and your apple id your contacts and photos/videos would at least carry over. bad part is you'd have to redownload apps and set up things the way you like them, and would lose imessage. But it might help if you've been having update issues to get a clean start.
EDIT: nm i see you mentioned that in another post. but yeah, something to consider. may be a problem carrying over from backup to backup.
fucking finally

Finally, split view in the YouTube app, it's been so annoying not being able to do this!

I think because it technically counts as "playing in the background"
It's not a perfect solution, but look up CornerTube and PipTube. Both allow to to watch YouTube videos in PiP, even from the official app. But there's an extra step involved.
Since PipTube's latest update, both have the same feature set: You can send a YouTube video to either of them by copying the URL and tapping a widget in Notification Center, or by using a sharing extension. The video will then play in the respective app using iOS's built-in video player, which supports PiP.
I prefer CornerTube, as the widget looks way nicer. But I found at least one video that didn't work in CornerTube: It said "Playback on other websites has been disabled by the video owner", but it worked perfectly fine in PipTube.

I don't think so, I'm not in the beta cycle and I didn't have it until 9.3

Which is completely stupid because the Twitch app lets me play audio from streams without having to be a subscriber of the streamer. YouTube is just doing this to get people to pay for something they don't want to.
Now that it's been a few months, what's the verdict on YouTube Red from the people who make their living off the site? I haven't heard anything about results since they introduced it and the initial outcry from all the channel owners.

Not sure where I heard it... but use Siri "activate night mode" to get around not being able to have Night Shift and Low Power Mode active at the same time.

Guhhhgh, I guess I'll try night mode. 🙄
I have been on the beta program and am currently on 9.3 beta 7 or whatever and want off the train because of battery issues.
Can I just update to 9.3 and remove the beta profile from my phone? Or worst case scenario, should I just update to 9.3 and then ignore the 9.4 betas? I don't want to do a restore unless the battery stays shit.

Oh, you're right, I looked it up.
I installed the beta for a couple of days on my iPhone two months ago and I got confused.
You can just OTA over to 9.3 proper. Then remove the profile afterward so you don't get the inevitable public betas for 9.3.1 etc.

I didn't have this problem the last few times iTunes updates but I did this release. It was really hard finding any tips and as a last resort searched gaf and found this post. I'm going to try it out when I get home and I can't wait to see if it works. Thanks, hopefully.
I have 15 days to return this iPad Pro w Best Buy. It would fall right about when the 9.7 is available. The Air 2 was my favorite tablet so far, so I figured I'd probably enjoy moving back to that size the most. This Pro is an amazing machine and a great display, but I can't quite get used to the size. Feels more suited for the laptop/keyboard case use than my 'lay back on the couch and read/browse/watch' general usage.
And yet....the more I use it, the harder a decision it is. Especially when I fire up something like, say, comics where the screen makes it glorious.
Worse still, I'm feeling a little too cautious with it. I've held off on a case because I didn't want to spend the money if I wasn't going to keep it, but I think if I had a case on it it would help with adjusting to handling it.

Yeah, and not only for the iPad 3.
I spent a while trying to figure out why I couldn't update my wife's 5S until I finally figured out it was because Apple had removed the update.
My dad asked me today what was going on with his 5S, as he couldn't update either.
This is a fucking joke on Apple's side. It really blows my mind how, after seven betas, they release the gold version and then remove it without saying a fucking word, and with obscure error messages.
jts
...hate me...
It is crazy that they didnt get the gold release right for some devices, but the obscure message is just a direct result of the quickest, most effective way of preventing people from installing it: stop signing it.
Of course, it would be cool if costumers would get a message about it, but thats not really Apples style unfortunately. I figured the issue would be gone by now though. We have a 5s in the house already updated (it was updated not long after initial release).
