Deleted Hi,

1. Have you installed YouTube as an app? I can only reproduce it if I open the YouTube app that I have installed. The issue is not reproducible when youtube.com is opened in a tab in browser window. I only see this in the Canary builds from about some days back.

2. I do not have AdBlock Plus or AdBlocker for YouTube. I'm just using the Tracking Prevention, set to Strict level.

3. I cannot see the issue in any other PWA, its just YouTube PWA having the issue.

Thanks!

1. Yes, I had installed it as a PWA too. "I only see this in the Canary builds from about some days back." To clarify, does this mean that the issue is no longer happening, or that it's still in the current Canary build?

2.-3. Good to know!
