iOS/iPadOS 14 and VP9 support [Merged]

[CoronaOnTap]

On this video I’m getting 2160p HDR on my iPhone 11 Pro and the same on my 2018 iPad Pro, but it’s not giving me the HDR option.

I don’t see any HDR options on my 11 Pro.

They enabled 4K again. Having it on my iphone 11. Now lets hope they let it as it is.

Also seeing 2160p60 on my iPad Pro 11" 2018 & 2160p60 HDR on my iPhone 11 Pro Max here, wasn't there when I checked after updating to iOS 14.2 beta 3, so the switch was flicked on the server in the last 12 hours or so....

 

[Mac Rules]

I don’t wanna jinx it but SDR videos are now showing 4K for me and have been for the last 6 hours or so...

Can confirm that 4K SDR now works on 11 Pro.

4K now works with hdr and sdr on both iPhone and iPad, I’m happy let’s hope google stick to it and don’t pull it back

4K works on my iPad Air 3. It’s even a default choice. Only on YouTube app though. In Safari the same video will play in 1080p.

 

[MarcoLLLLL]

It's finally working (Youtube app) - Ipad Pro 2020

 

[Jurwin]

Does 4k youtube work on the ipad 10.5" (2017)?

 

[tbjohnson]

4k doesn't work on my 10.5 2017 ipad pro

 

[EdMarcello]

4k doesn't work on my 10.5 2017 ipad pro

Same here

Is there any chance to enable Youtube 4k on the iPad Pro 10.5 (2017)?

It works on my iPhone XS and with developer settings on MBP 2016.

for the first sentence no

also beg google to enable 4K HDR For YT App for iPP 10.5. It’s so dumb how this device doesn’t have these options (when A10X can easily support decoding 4K60) and the device also has a HDR Screen unlike iPhone XR/11/SE2 which supports 4K60 YT with HDR too

 

[marcel151]

Is my iPad 7 simply not powerful enough to play YouTube 4K? Never seen 2160p in Safari or in the app on it.

 

[muimui]

Does air 2 support 2k and 4k in youtube app?

 

[Luke10702]

I don’t understand which ipads support 4k and which ones don’t and why. Mine is limited to 1080p and it’s a shame.

Google is not friend of Apple and Google owns youtube.
