# Known issues
1. **YouTube Reborn**:
- Downloading videos/audio not working. (probably a Client-Side change, don't know why this happened.)
2. **LowContrastMode**: this tweak doesn't work correctly with the ui if you use v17.39.4 or later versions of the YouTube App. [WORKAROUND - go to `Settings > YouTubeRebornPlus > Miscellaneous > Enable App Version Spoofer` and go to `Version Spoofer Picker` and select `v17.38.10`]
3. **YTClassicVideoQuality**: this tweak that shows the old video quality menu has stopped working on v18.19.1 or later versions of the YouTube App. [WORKAROUND - read YTSpeed's workaround above]
4. **YTUHD**: [Stuttering on 4K videos](https://github.com/qnblackcat/uYouPlus/issues/6).
5. **YouPiP** (iOS 14.0 - 14.4.2): due to Apple's fault, you may encounter the *speedup-bug* as described [here](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NKdv1fr_KRWgD8nhkMDfG2eLBnbdeVtX/view?usp=sharing). The bug also happens when you try to play multi-sources of sound at the same time. Enable **LegacyPiP** is a workaround. Keep in mind that LegacyPiP also removes UHD quality and breaks YouTube Autoplay next. Use it at your own risk!
6. **Not a bug**:
- The app won't be able to receive push notifications if you use a free developer account to sideload it.
- It's impossible to fix deep-link (a.k.a Open in the YouTube app). However, you can use this [Shortcuts](https://shortcutsgallery.com/shortcuts/open-in-youtube/) as a workaround (tested on iOS 14). **Credit:** RandomAccessMemories#5025
