Some YouTube links are not recognized


#1

Hi,

Some links from YouTube are not recognized. For example, all links from domain “youtu.be” are not recognized, but they are still official YT links. Usually I get them from iOS app using share button.

Also, the UX is kinda confusing for me. Since the app doesn’t always recognize the link I don’t realize right away what is the problem. Then I go to some other app, paste the link and see what the problem is. If there was a button which opens u p a modal to input a link and then confirm and get back some useful information like a message:
“The link is not valid. Domain {link-domain} is not supported.” would be much more useful. People get confused about this, especially since they copy link directly from them app it is expected to work.

Love your app :slight_smile:
