This new jailbreak tweak fixes an issue with images not loading in the YouTube app

Have you ever found yourself coping with an issue where images wouldn’t load in the official YouTube application for iPhone or iPad?

According to iOS developer Eevee, this is because channel avatars (profile photos) and community post photos are hosted using the yt3.ggpht.com domain, which some countries actively restrict.

Evidently, this causes those images not to load in many circumstances, and in the iOS & iPadOS apps, the issue extends beyond avatars and community post photos to include virtually any image, including video previews (thumbnails).

To help fix this problem, a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called YouTube Fix that switches URLs to the mirrored yt4.ggpht.com domain, which effectively fixes the loading issues that seem to be affecting a significant number of people as of late.

While we haven’t experienced this issue ourselves, likely because these domains aren’t impacted in the United States, anyone who does experience these issues in another country may want to consider giving the YouTube Fix jailbreak tweak a try to see if it solves the problem.

YouTube Fix is a free download from the Havoc repository via your preferred package manager app, and it supports all jailbroken devices running iOS & iPadOS 14 and later (all the way up to 17.x). The developer has also open-sourced the tweak on GitHub for anyone wanting to see what makes it tick.

Were you able to give YouTube Fix a try and resolve your YouTube image loading issues? We’d love to hear about your results in the comments section down below.
