iOS 8.3 broke YouTube!

I've updated two iPads (iPad 2 and iPad Mini) and 2 iPhones (4S and 6+) to iOS 8.3.

YouTube will not run on any device. Circling flower, greyed menus...


I am located in Thailand, but YouTube is not blocked here, I can use it on my OS X Macs. Help!!

iPad 2, iOS 8.3

I, too, have lost the ability to play videos in Safari after the 8.3 update. Worked with the previous build.


I use the iPad for business and will not clutter it with a bunch of 3rd party apps just to overcome a code flaw in 8.3. No video plays in Safari; it looks like it wants to play, but it never starts. Yes, I have reset the iPad several times. Prefer to not restore it as I will lose game progress and other critical information.


I have a first generation iPad Air. My iPhone 6 works fine with the 8.3 build.
