The webui version is legacy and yeah like stated it will tell you to upgrade as the old qtwebkit version in SailfishOS will not allow you to see the newer version.
The UI now looks very different from what it looked like when I first installed LLs video player.
Strange, maybe I accidentally installed an old version. I feel stupid.

Before, the main window had iirc 6 square tiles, one of them was "Search youtube" and brought me to the mobile web interface.

Now, it looks like this and the version is 3.0.2-1. That's OK then I guess.

May I ask what the top search bar is supposed to search for? It does not directly search YT afaics?
If I tap "Search on Youtube" first I can enter search terms, and that works as expected.

Thank you, this is good to know.
I don't much watch movies on my phone anyhow, the YT functionality is the most important thing for me.

I am very grateful for this app, please don't mistake my critique for complaining!
