same on windows and ios

Same thing happened to me. I tried reinstalling and it did not work. It was fine this morning and both my desktop (arch linux, installed via flatpak) and my android device (installed via fdroid and also tried the one in Play Store) suddenly stopped working today around 3pm.

I checked my log and it is just a bunch of 403 and "TrackNotFoumd"

Did YouTube do anything that stopped from spotube frpm running?

• note: I have YouTube as my source and I am able to access YouTube.com without any problem

piped seems to not work too, now the other, that asia one i forgot the name i havent tested yetr

i did some testing and saw that other providers are not working too...

seems like that piped and invidious are both down (?)

in another word, youtube is limiting all thr frontends

[dhay3]

It must be something has been done by Youtube, though I do not found any announcements. The youtube_explode_dart dependency is not working which Piped and Youtube audio source rely on( related issue: Hexer10/youtube_explode_dart#286 ). And people has discussed in discord that some other thr frontends eg. Innertune and Newpipe are still working.

so basically all it takes is to figure out a new way to interact with YouTube api?

[saxomorris]

Exactly my problem as well, nothing plays.
I don't want to lose my playlists, how to backup if I was to try a reinstall.I will wait for update.

[hervoan]

same problem here, on windows 3.8.1

[dhay3]

It should be fixed asap for temporarily used. For the detail check this PR Hexer10/youtube_explode_dart#287

[JaivishChauhan]

switch the source to piped close app then open and play would work
