YouTube raised the price of its Premium subscription for all plan tiers, with increases ranging from $1 to $4 per month, effective for new subscribers immediately and rolling out to existing subscribers on upcoming billing dates. Separately, users on TV apps reported seeing 90-second unskippable ads — three times the platform's official 30-second cap for connected TVs — prompting widespread backlash. YouTube confirmed the lengthy ads were caused by a bug that displayed "higher, inaccurate timers being shown for shorter ads" and stated it was rolling out a fix.
