I have watched YouTube without account (mobile app), and I saw this notification video below, I have no idea who is it, but now I know that he/she watches this channel
Could you please give some documentation about this feature
Image was taken from reddit post just to show how it looks
"(x) viewers also watched this video" is driven by YouTube analytics based on your personal 'history' list. The ONLY WAY to 'stop' these pop-ups (which now cover half of the thumbnail of the new video you wish to watch) is to completely clear your 'history' list.
There is no 'turn this feature on/off' button in settings that will work. I'm not sure WHY this is important to YouTube to push 'viewing' of other people's views...other than more 'herd mentality' social engineering at work...but...
There you go.

I am a teacher and I have a YouTube channel with videos for my students. Every time one of my students see a video, I would love to know how he interacted with it: where he has paused it , where he has rewinded it, etc. This would help me in knowing the parts of the video that are difficult to understand.
My question is: is it possible to get all this data from a user's session? Specifically, can I get these detailed raw data from YouTube APIs?
From what I have explored so far, it seems that it is not possible, as YouTube APIs only seem to send "aggregated" data (example: total number of views of a video) or "properties" (example: title of the video).
I would really just need a Yes/No answer to my question, just to know if I am not waisting my time in exploring the APIs as a solution to my problem.
Thank you.
Yes and no,
But here is a more detailed explanation.
The YouTube Analytics api will give you analytics data on your own YouTube channel, but it wont be user specific you cant track who exactly did something. You may however be able to get some basic information about each video and what was clicked and how much was viewed. video reports But its not going to be user specific you wont know what Mike did as opposed to what Jane did.
The YouTube Data api will allow you to manage your own YouTube Channel for example upload videos and see subscriptions. It will also let you search for public videos on YouTube.
If you do want user specific then What you are looking for is session data related to user activity. Something like this is not publicly available. Google couldn't share your students activity without the students permission due to GDPR not to mention the fact that tracking anyone under the age of 13 would also be against some GDPR laws if i remember correctly.
Even Google analytics doesn't offer websites a decent way of tracking individual users activity on their websites. You can do it but you have to add additional tracking data to your website, and notify users that you are doing it.
SO your answer is yes kind of
I want to connect vimeo video with an android app, the process is like this:
I want to upload the video on Vimeo, and want to see the list of video uploaded in the vimeo from the android app and play it from the android app.
In simple words I don't want to upload the link of every new video in my code.
Is that possible, help me with this
What sort of technology require for this
and what is the process ?
Honestly I am new to Android apps too. If you wish to save links you had already accessed, then I assume you should look at "Room" (The name of Android Internal Storage). Room would helps you to remember links/videos even if you close the app.
In regards listing items, I'd look at "RecyclerView".
I don't have enough knowledge on that field, to provide you with an accurate answer but I'd suggest start looking on these two topics.
I have a responsive website for kids. Kids can watch selected Youtube Videos in a webbrowser. To make ann Android app, I used an APK creator. This app shows my website in a fullscreen webviewer. I set it up to hide the addressbar, so kids can more safely brows the App (website). On the website are no external links, except the links from the Youtube player. The YouTube video's are loading with a normal Wordpress YouTube plugin. When hitting the YouTube logo or Video URL, the Youtube website wil show.
Now Google Plays said i am violating the rules of the YouTube Api:
"Your API Client will not, and You will not encourage or create functionality for Your users or other third parties to: (8) separate, isolate, or modify the audio or video components of any YouTube audiovisual content made available through the YouTube API;"
This I truely not understand. There is no way I want to violate anything. When I appeal for reinstatement the just saying:
"After further review, we are unable to reinstate your application. You can find out more information under Reason for Suspension in the initial removal notification from Google Play."
The initial removal notification said what I wrote above.
No, wait, don't go! I'm serious.
I was (am?) attempting to rickroll my coworkers in celebration of defeating the iOS beast in our latest battle, when the hydra decided to get the last laugh. Clicking on links to, or openURL with, either of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0 (the two major rickrolling videos) results in a "Could not load movie" error. But when I find the video through the Youtube app, it plays fine. Other video URLs chosen at random and run through the exact same pathways work fine.
I'm not sure how else to ask this, other than WTF? Could Apple / Youtube be special-casing these videos?
Official music videos often have all kinds of restrictions for mobile playback... try a less popular video of the song?
Could Apple / Youtube be special-casing these videos?
Sure, they might. The Wikipedia entry on "rickrolling" says this:
The meme is a bait and switch; a person provides a hyperlink seemingly
relevant to the topic at hand, but actually leads to Astley's video.
Fooling the user is very much against the spirit of the iOS app store review guidelines, and it's probable that you're not the first person to try this. So it's possible that certain videos are special-cased, or that certain videos are marked with an attribute that prevents them from loading.
Further down in the article, Wikipedia also says:
In October/November 2009, a worm designed to infect jailbroken iPhones
changed the wallpaper of infected phones to a picture of Rick Astley
overlaid with the text "ikee is never going to give you up".
This seems like an even better reason for iOS to have code that avoids videos involving Rick Astley. Not that the worm is directly connected to the videos, but if the unexpected appearance of Rick Astley is a meme that's associated with malware, you can imagine Apple wanting to prevent loading such content by untrusted apps.
STATUS: Although the OP's VideoID's are restricted for viewing on YouTube website only, this is the method to watch YouTube Videos on iOS Devices.
You will need to link using YouTube's Embed URL Method for iOS.
Example links:
http://www.youtube.com/embed/VIDEOID
http://www.youtube.com/embed/VIDEOID?autoplay=1
NOTE: The second links is formatted with YouTube autoplay Option.
Status Update: See this SO Answer that may prove useful. As those answer comments state, iOS will swap out the HTML tags automatically.
Is it possible to add to my youtube account a video I liked in youtube without having to upload it?
This is for an application i´m developing... I´m looking for something similar to share on twitter feature.
But any help is welcome!
Thanks
You can add it as a favourite, as Yuliy has said, or you can create yourself a channel, add a playlist to that channel, then add the video in a similar way to the playlist.
Doing it this way means you can 'see' it from the API(getplaylists, getplaylist)... But, if the original author decides to take the video down, then of course it will disappear from your channel page as well (or more likely say 'this video has been removed by the user').
You cant keep a 'copy' of the video like this.
