Have you tried reinstalling the application?

If you read the reviews in the App Store, lots of people are reporting the same problems with the latest version of the App. Use the website via Safari until Google bring out an update.
 
Yeah, the official app sucks. I tried a third party one today on a whim and while not perfect, the seeking actually works and it plays videos in the background (well its audio I mean). Not to mention it shows your subscriptions every time and not recommendations by default. The app is called Tubex. My only real complaint so far with this is that your subs wont go back as far as Id like.

But give it a try see if you like it.

+1 for Tubex, my only complaint is i wish they offer paid version to get rid of the ads
 
I wonder if they will bring the Material Design to Youtube and Google Plus on iOS
 
you tube application

Wow Tubex is great. Just tried it and I'm amazed. Lol. The official app had me a little worried of the IPhone 6 plus hardware coming from an android device. Videos kept buffering and barely were viewable in 1080p. After trying YouTube with safari I realized that it was the app not the phone, unfortunately with safari videos kept crashing. YouTube with the Chrome browsers was good, but you can not create a home screen shortcut for easy access. So finally I'm happy. Thank you.
