fix(YouTube - Change form factor): Restore Automotive form factor watch history menu, channel pages, and community posts #4541
Conversation
…ch history menu, channel pages, and community posts
The explore tab can be set hidden, if the user opens the app and immediately changes to the You tab or opens a video. The only simple fix I can think of, is to alway use the automotive form factor for the first few seconds after the app launches, but that is not reliable and will cause the undesirable automotive side effects if the user immediately opens the you tab or open a video. To avoid the issue for now, I've changed it to always hide the explore tab. I don't know if the explore tab is that useful, and if desired the change start page can restore the functionality on startup. |

Fixes various issues when using Android Automotive form factor.
If using the Android Automotive, the form factor override is selectively turned off for the following situations:
Navigation is currently on the 'You' tab
Video player is currently opened or is opening
Navigation bar shows a back button but not a search bar
Due to side effects with these fixes, the Explore tab is now always hidden if using Automotive form factor. If desired, use the
Change start page
patch to open the Explore tab on startup.
