2ButtonTube

2ButtonTube is designed for users who need a simplified way to get to their favorite YouTube channels and videos. Channels and Videos are presented in a clear grid, no scrolling or swiping. Simply tap to select. Alternatively, users can use two-button scanning and selecting to navigate. When scanning, the app highlights your selection with a bright blue outline and can announce the title. Selected videos open in a full-screen presentation using YouTube's official embedded player, without opening the YouTube app. Setup is easy. Users, attendants, or guardians can simply search for the channels or videos to bookmark, or use direct hyperlinks. Parental lock is available to disable any changes to settings. Settings can also be exported to a file for backup and imported to restore. Optional two-button access maps Spacebar to scan and Enter to select, which means the user can use Origin Instruments’ Tapio or AbleNet’s Blue2 devices. Users do not need to use Apple’s built-in accessibility features to enable this option. There is an option to limit short videos. All videos three minutes or shorter, labeled as #Shorts or #YouTubeShorts can be filtered away. Unfortunately, YouTube does not provide a dependable Shorts classification, so these filters cannot identify every Short. Age-restricted videos identified by YouTube can also be filtered. Live streams, private videos, and videos that cannot be embedded are also excluded. YouTube's filters cannot guarantee age-appropriate content, and its player may show ads or recommendations. Videos stream from YouTube; downloads and offline playback are not supported. 2ButtonTube is an independent app and is not affiliated with or endorsed by YouTube or Google. Videos are not downloaded and require an internet connection to view.
