(iOS issue) Youtube videos won’t load in brave playlist

So after updating my iPhone (14) to iOS 18 when I try to download a Youtube video in my brave playlist it always says: “Failed to load resources”, I tried things like: restarting my phone, Emptying the cache and downloading it again, incognito tab and desktop version but all of them failed.

Anyone got any suggestions?

I’ll appreciate every answer!

Cheers all

Hi, I have the same issue. Can’t run the latest YouTube video saved in the playlist and get the same error response.

I am experiencing the same problem, have tried several things including following the topic from a year earlier (wasn’t even logged in but did log in and then out again).

I have no idea why it is not working, it always did so flawlessly. :confused:

I experience the same or similar problem for some time and went through 2 brave updates and one iOS update. also a couple of restarts of both app and phone btw.
general troubleshooting tips like clearing cache, history, offline data etc did nothing but deleting the vids I still had.

i found a workaround though:
open a private tab
go to youtube
do not log in but scroll down in the notfication window and click ‘reject all’
find the video you like to add to playlist
add as usual
make sure to start playing it to get brave to actually download the video

after this you can access playlist from regular browser tabs and play, just not add videos to the playlist. You will still have to go through a private tab.

iPhone 13 mini, iOS 17.7.1
brave 1.71 (125)
and about 60gb still available storage capacity

[edit]
playlist does still work normally on my iPad Air(5th), ipaDOS 17.6.1, brave 1.71 (125)

Hello, i have the same issue (ios 18.1.1) but an old post suggested a workauround which worked perfectly. On yt i load a video then on the bottom right corner i click on the 3 dots and instead of using the mobile site i force it into desktop mode. Then add it to the playlist and tada it works atleast for me.
I had to close and restart the app and repeat the steps above to further add songs to my playlist

@Bouneschlupp can you confirm your current Brave version? We released 1.73.97 late last week which should resolve many of the reported Playlist issues.

Hello Steeven, nice to meet you! I have the App Store Germany and latest version i have access to is 1.73
