YouTube’s watch next suggestions are crossing the line on Android — literally
The UI bug is obscuring the YouTube progress bar for many.
Some Android users of YouTube are reporting an issue with their watch next suggestions covering the full screen player and blocking the progress bar. The problem has been reported since at least April, with more complaints surfacing recently. Google has not officially confirmed whether this is a bug or a deliberate UI test. YouTube's recommendation algorithm is known for providing relevant content, but lately, the recommendations seem to be getting too aggressive, causing a significant number of Android users to have the suggested videos cover parts of the video and progress bar, making it difficult to navigate.
