Got ya. I can understand listening to something as opposed to watching.
So another question, is this situation caused by Apple or YouTube? I have just recently started back with Apple products so I'm not yet familiar with all the details like these.
I do miss being able to have two apps open on the screen at once. I would do my banking with split screen using the Wellsfargo app and my spreadsheet with projections. It was convenient.
My brother has an Android device.
Every time he taps on something, he gets a prompt asking him to open in the default app (he previously had set) or in another app.
Imagine you had to this every single time you clicked on a smart link on iOS?? It’d drive me crazy.
I have three Android devices and I don't have this issue on them.

The settings menu. Huge, confusing, hard to use and ugly. Much worse than competing platforms, although this is never mentioned in reviews. That's suspicious, right?
Probably because it's a one of a kind opinion. My guess anyway.
Is anyone seriously going to defend the settings menu on iOS? Go ahead if you want, but it's not going to be easy.

I think Apple has made some improvements, like putting the Apple ID menu at the top, but it's still rough. That being said, it's been a few years since I've messed around with the settings on an Android device. What are they doing today that's better than iOS?
Android's settings menu (since at least early 2014) is just much smaller and simpler. It's a small fraction of the size of the implementation in iOS, despite Android supposedly being more configurable. The layout seems logical and things are easy to find (and there's a search function) - compare with, for example, the "general" tab in iOS, which is an unsorted dumping ground for a variety of functions that seem to belong elsewhere. Setting (pun intended) aside the usual partisan preferences, Android simply does this better than iOS at the moment.
The settings menu is an important part of a mobile platform. After all, in the end iOS and Android are little more than platforms to run apps. Most of the time that we use a phone, we are actually using an app, and it makes little difference whether the phone runs iOS, Android or something else. The settings menu is one of the few points of real differentiation.
I'm not really defending it, just saying your opinion is not as popular as you may think. is known for simplicity, and the Settings on iOS is as simple as it gets. I've used Android devices, and even the settings is a mess.
I forgot to mention multitasking. Hopefully Apple take a few ques from Android. Ex I'm watching YouTube, while replying to this thread.
I can watch a video with picture in picture with my iPad. I am not at all interested in doing this on my iPhone.
