This eight-second clip tests playback without contacting YouTube.

  1. Set the Custom URL, then restart the iPhone.
  2. Open the original YouTube app and search for a short video.
  3. The first tap may play a Preparing video message. Wait a few minutes, then tap the same video again.

Videos up to 10 minutes are supported. Search and video playback are the initial target. Google account sign-in, live streams, and server-side playlists are unavailable.
