YouTube lags

What do you mean by the video lags a lot? I've personally not noticed any difference between oneUI 7 and 8, and I watch a couple of hours of YT per day.

It's your phone complaining about the amount of ads in YouTube 😂 😂
My s24 is a bit laggy when opening and closing videos but playback is the same as it was in ui7

He's correct but I force stopped it and restarted the app now it's fine.

The YouTube video lag you're experiencing in the first One UI 8 Beta may be due to ongoing resource optimization or compatibility tuning during the beta phase. Here are a few tips that might help improve performance:

1. Clear Cache – Go to Settings > Apps > YouTube > Storage > Clear Cache.

2. Update YouTube – Ensure the app is updated to the latest version.

3. Close Background Apps – Free up system resources by closing apps running in the background.

4. Disable Power Saving Mode – If enabled, it might limit performance and cause lag.

If the issue continues, please send feedback via the Samsung Members app and include log files.

This will help our developers investigate more effectively. Thanks for your patience! 😊
