@sarbagyastha, I updated the plugin from v3 to 4.0.0+2 and I am still getting this error on iOS.

komaromil · 2019-08-12T15:12:40Z

Same here :-(

kmcgill88 · 2019-08-13T17:00:48Z

I simplified this and made my own HTML file and ran it locally. The iOS web view still didn't work with the youtube iframe api from their code example. However, if I loaded HTML with an embedded iframe from the share section of youtube.com videos would play just fine. 🤷‍♂

sarbagyastha · 2019-08-13T17:13:57Z

@kmcgill88 @komaromil Could you check if Version 4.1.0 fix it?

kmcgill88 · 2019-08-14T04:02:44Z

@sarbagyastha I got it to play once but the performance was awful! It still crashes a majority of the time. I tested on real iPhone and Simulator. I also confirmed it works on Android Emulator.

buncis · 2019-08-14T19:05:47Z

@sarbagyastha I'm using 4.10
