YouTube plays whack-a-mole, fixes another annoying account issue
The issue affected sign-ups, add-ons, and subscription changes.
YouTube faced a fresh round of technical difficulties on Tuesday, as the platform briefly experienced issues related to account sign-ups and subscription management. Users reported encountering errors when attempting to add packages or modify existing subscriptions. Google confirmed that the problem has been resolved, but some users who are still experiencing trouble are advised to refresh the app or browser.
The company has now closed another sign-in bug that had previously locked some individuals out of the app on smart TVs and gaming consoles, but this issue emerged soon after. This time, the problem specifically affected those trying to sign up for or change paid subscriptions across YouTube and YouTube TV. In a community post, YouTube mentioned that certain users encountered errors or failed dialog boxes during the sign-up process, package additions, or subscription modifications.
While the company acknowledged investigating the issue, it did not specify the cause or the number of individuals impacted.
