The big one in this version is downloads. A video can be saved to the device and watched with no network at all. You can download subtitles, dubbed audio, comments as well. The other half of the release is playlists/mixes/jams, which now open a proper queue that does not stop after the first 20 videos.
New
- Downloads (#54). Save a video to the device and watch it offline. A new Downloads screen in the Library shows what you have, and the download state appears wherever a video appears. You choose what a download brings with it, so the video page and its comments can be kept next to the file and read without a network.
- Queue for playlists (#73). Playing a playlist opens a queue panel with everything in it, and the queue continues past the first 20 videos. A strip above the comments shows what plays next.
Fixes
- Kids livestreams play again (#83). They are served through the Android HLS manifest, which is the only source that answers for them.
- The home feed stops opening on the same videos (#100). The pinned first shelf is loaded deeper and shuffled, so the top of the screen changes between visits.
- The queue panel survives an iPad rotation, and its strip no longer hides under the comments (#101).
- A downloaded video shows its real length and can be seeked on iOS 12 (#102). The duration is read from the file itself instead of being asked for over the network.
