YouTube forced me to update. The update wouldn’t load and now I can’t use YouTube. When I try to open I get an error and I either have to “quit” or “update”. When I try to update, I can’t. My operating system is current, iPad is 6 years old. I’ve forced a restart and I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app. Anyone else having this problem?

Hello,
I am sorry, the YouTube application is not compatible with your legacy iPad model.
Hi, Jfray
An possible alternative, although a little less friendly, would just be accessing m.youtube.com thru safari
Let us know if this works!
Best of Luck, S
