I would like to create a small test app for iOS in which I get youtube videos from a specific channel. I would also like to get the comments in the channel and such.
How can this be done? Does the iOS API (Youtube) support this. Didn't find anything about it.
Thanks!
Youtube does have a Objective-C api. You can look through the example applications
here. Should be enough to get you started.

I am trying to implement a feature where users can upload a video to YouTube directly from the app, sort of like a share to Twitter or Facebook type way. I don't want to use the UIShareViewController, I want to allow it to be upload-able with the touch of one button.
I have done some research, and all the other posts are outdated, mostly in 2014. I am looking for a new version using Swift 4. I understand the whole process of registering my app through Google to get the API, I have looked at their documents. However, their section on uploading videos requires Python 2.5 or higher, so I am not sure where to go about it.
This is a link to their API:
https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/guides/uploading_a_video
I found these questions, but they are outdated.
Upload Video to YouTube in Swift
Are there any updated resources online that can help me?
A brief description of the process after registering the app with the Api would help.
So since the recent update in whatsapp, you can play youtube videos using the default AVPlayer in iOS.
I wanted to know how is this functionality possible? And if there is a way to implement this without violating Youtube's Terms of Service?
I know of tools like https://github.com/0xced/XCDYouTubeKit but they clearly violate Youtube's TOS.
Check the screenshot below
One option that I don't know if the guys on Whatsapp use but I already used in a production App is a Pod made by YouTube guys, called
YouTube-Player-iOS-Helper
You can see the link to the documentation below. With this Pod you can put a video preview in a UIView that helps but I don't know if is the best option to use because the Pod uses a Webview, injecting Javascript.
It's just an option... maybe there is a better solution for this problem.

I think Youtube API should available to integrate in your iOS app. Because normally in website youtube provide embedded api to play their video on other website. So, same for iOS also may be possible. Please check youtube's official developer website. You can Check this: https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/guides/ios_youtube_helper
I am trying to add some youtube videos from my Admin page to database. So that mobile application can make use of them to play.
I want to filter the result from YouTube API link so that i can make sure that whatever videos i add to the database will be able to play on mobile devices like IOS and Android.
I tried
&format=5 and &format=1
but no use.
I also went through Youtube API v2.0 Docs but unable to find the correct way to assign fields parameter to my query string
can anyone guide me to fix this?
What you need is videoEmbeddable and videoSyndicated.
Here's my answer to original question: retrive only mobile-supported video from YouTube API
based on http://youtubecreator.blogspot.com/2012/08/tags-removed-from-video-watch-pages.html, youtube has made media:keywords element empty in youtube api as well.
However, it is important for my application to scan through the tags/keywords. Is there an alternate solution for me to get the tags/keywords for a video?
This blog post gives information relevant to developers: http://apiblog.youtube.com/2012/08/video-tags-just-for-uploaders.html
You can get the tags if you're authenticated as the owner of the video. Otherwise, no, it's not currently possible.
