EasyComp YouTube App is a lightweight web application that lets older or limited smart TVs keep playing YouTube, even when the official YouTube app is no longer supported.

Instead of a heavy native app, it runs in the built-in web browser of your TV, media box, Raspberry Pi or mini PC. The interface is deliberately simple: large cards, clear buttons and a layout that stays readable from the sofa.

Main features:

• ✔️ Works on older smart TVs and simple media boxes with a basic browser
• ✔️ Sign in with your own YouTube account via the official Google device code flow
• ✔️ Search YouTube and play results directly inside the player
• ✔️ “You” section with subscriptions, liked videos and a local history inside this app
• ✔️ Built-in player (YouTube embed / no-cookie) so videos stay inside the app
• ✔️ Multilingual interface: automatic language selection based on your browser/TV settings
• ✔️ Right-to-left support for languages like Arabic and Hebrew

How it works:

1. Open the browser on your TV or media box and go to the URL of this app.
2. Click Sign in.
3. You will see a code and a link to google.com/device.
4. On your phone, tablet or laptop, go to that link and enter the code.
5. Confirm that this app is allowed to access your YouTube account.
6. The app detects the link and shows your personal sections (subscriptions, liked videos, etc.).

Privacy & storage

• The app only stores the access tokens needed to talk to the YouTube API on your behalf.
• Tokens are stored in a protected directory on the EasyComp server, not in public web folders.
• No own tracking, analytics or ads are added by this app.
• All content (videos, thumbnails, channels) comes directly from the official YouTube API.
• The extra “History” / “Watch later” inside this app is only used by this application itself.

Costs

The EasyComp YouTube App is free to use for end users. You only pay for your own internet connection and any hosting or service agreements you may have with EasyComp Zeeland to make this app available.

Who built this?

This app is developed and maintained by EasyComp Zeeland (and related labels such as EasyVoice Telecom) to give existing equipment a second life. Instead of throwing away perfectly fine TVs because the YouTube app stopped working, you can keep using them with this web app.
