Youtube Search Issue in ATV

[skottichan]

Okay, having a weird issue with the search function in YouTube on the AppleTV. Basically, if I either use voice via phone/iPad/iPhone or type via the iPhone/iPad in the search bar in Youtube, the search typing will just stop and the search will just reset back to a blank space.

If I do the manual typing using the ATV remote, it works just fine. Any ideas what could be going on?

Oh and this is on a 1st gen ATV 4K.

I have the same problem. Seems to be a bug in the app...

Yeah, I think so too. I've tried un/reinstalling the app and resetting the ATV, looks like I'm stuck with the issue for the time being.

Same here. Crappy app IMO

Same issue here, pretty annoying.

Problem solved for me after the tvOS 17.4 update.

Same issue here. I will try updating tvOS, hopefully that fixes the annoying problem.

I still have the issue after the update.

Same issue here. If I force close YouTube after attempting a voice search - when I reopen YouTube the search result is there. Trying 17.4.1 beta now to see if it’s any different. Not holding my breath.

It didn’t let me install fyi.
