Nice to know Google is so concerned about accessibility!
You do know that Youtube is owned by Google so you have to email their

Subject: Re: The youtube app...what on earth happened?

desperately to old versions of apps. I've never e-mailed an app
developer before, but I do hope to try and get in touch with this one
somehow. I deeply regret having updated.

Thanks very much for commiserating!
