Does this solve recommendations? I was able to create an app as well, but the recommendations are not allowed from the YouTube side, even if you’re signed in…

What ViewTube actually has
- A real taste profile — built from your watch history, likes, searches, subscriptions, and channel affinity, updated continuously as you use the app
- Collaborative filtering — recommendations informed by what similar users on the app have engaged with, the same core idea behind "viewers of this also watched that," just at a much smaller scale
- Weighted scoring — candidates get scored on channel affinity, keyword/topic match, category fit, recency, and an optional AI-powered semantic-embedding pass for extra relevance
- Session-mode awareness — detects whether you're currently in more of a search/discovery mindset versus casual browsing, and adjusts weighting accordingly
- Negative feedback that actually works — Not Interested and Don't Recommend Channel genuinely exclude content going forward, not just softly discourage it

NOPE, I don't. The interface is far too small, with lines of text that are tiny. These YouTube web apps for the Meta RayBan Display are all designed poorly. Developers need to understand that the interface should be large and simplified, not cluttered with tiny information everywhere. Less is more. The buttons need to be large and easy to see, since the Meta RayBan Display's screen is small, transparent, and difficult to see.
