Odysee 17+

New user, and right at the start there are a couple obvious bugs, and a few things that could be improved on:
- Audio frequently becomes unsynced with the video.
- Detaching the video so you can view it while doing something else on your phone doesn’t always work correctly. Sometimes the video goes somewhere off screen and the only way to get it back is to go back to the app and “re-home” the video.
- There isn’t a way to quickly advance the video while in full screen mode. To jump forward 10 seconds, you have to get out of full screen, tap the button, and then go back in to full screen. YT addresses this perfectly by allowing you to double tap on the right or left side of the video. Something similar would be a welcome change.

All in all it’s a great start for a new app. I’m in it for the long haul, and I’ll be eagerly looking forward to improvements as they happen.

A free an open, decentralized hosting system that anyone can link to using crypto yo further enhance creator payment and support , while viewers are rewarded for their time instead of being spoon fed commerce to satisfy the big tech giants greed & pimp out creators for pennies. The creator of odysee makes no bones about his desire for
Others to create their own app to link to lbry. He created odysee to demonstrate its ability and capability, but sadly it’s about too good and I haven’t seen or heard of any news projects. I expect odysee will
Become a household name in a few years.
I still use the browsers (brave and quant) because the app needs some work. When you watch a video and desire to go back out to the Home Screen, you’re stuck in the feed you selected and then have to restart the app. I’m positive this will be corrected, and am eagerly waiting this app to be used and YT app deleted.

if i could give it less than one star, i would. hands down THE worst video player/hosting app i’ve tried. there is still NO playlist option on the ios app (which in itself is a whole mess), and when you do manage to get around browser, it’s slow, buggy, warms my phone, freezes, and shows creepy ads. you have to unmute every single video manually, so there are no options to just enjoy a playlist on mobile hands-free. there are plenty of weird and unnecessary options i’m sure the few users the app has don’t even know what it’s for, meanwhile, it lacks options that pretty much every other video player app has (and that makes them handy and necessary). the design is ugly, tight, and full of useless options and buttons. oh, and even worse outside of the app version. just a complete 0/10 in terms of functionality, design, and compared to pretty much every other similar app on the market.
