My @YouTube app has inexplicably began stopping autoplay, seemingly at random, and insisting I press a button to continue to the next video on the viewing list.
Since I mostly use autoplay to cycle music while I'm carrying groceries home, this is INFURIATING.

Auto-play won't start if you're connected to a mobile network and have been inactive for 30 minutes. On Wi-Fi, it will stop automatically after four hours – this prevents long Auto-play sessions that you might forget about. Hope this helps clarify!

That was annoying enough, but that's not what's happening. Recently when I've started setting YouTube to play, after one or two videos it will stop and prompt me to press a button that says "Play Now." This is an entirely different annoyance than autoplay pausing after 30 min.

Hmm, is this happening on both mobile and desktop? Here are steps that usually solves common issues: Desktop: Clearing cache and cookies. Android and iOS app: Restarting YouTube app and device, uninstalling and reinstalling YouTube app. Hope it helps!

Okay, I'll try that, but for reference this is what the screen looks like. This isn't autoplay pausing because of inactivity:pic.twitter.com/ahQ1llFjeR
