SkyTube Extra

I haven't tried SkyTube but looking at their GitHub it seems the video player it relies on is the cause of the issue and is also needing minimum 5.0: https://github.com/SkyTubeTeam/SkyTube/issues/1062

Legacy requires Android 4.0 minimum, it was branched out to Legacy due to crashes and development burden getting the main one to work properly. You can find it here.

Interesting. I can recommend Skytube extra for casting without ads. Smarttubenext seems to be another good option if you have the newest chromecast with google tv or an android tv box (which I don't)

SkyTube Extra (version 45): A simple and feature-rich YouTube player

Download from Google takeout only. For each photo, takeout downloads 2 files-a json file containing its metadata and the actual file itself. Now to fix this issue we'll make use of both the files using the script given below: https://github.com/TheLastGimbus/GooglePhotosTakeoutHelper Run this script recursively until all your photos have their dates corrected. dm in case u r stuck on any step

So for the past several hours I have been utilizing Google Takeout so that I can upload my photos directly into iCloud, sort of a backup space for my photos. I downloaded the files, extracted them, and then used the Google Photos takeout helper to help sort through everything. everything was done and I was ready for things to begin backing up to iCloud but it now won’t back up anything because it doesn’t support folders and only wants JPEG files.

There's also this one, but it didn't work with my external drive for some reason: https://github.com/TheLastGimbus/GooglePhotosTakeoutHelper

Here is a free utility + guide for windows (Edit, it seems there are instructions for Mac too, but you have to use the terminal) , but uploading to iCloud on windows isn’t suggested, doing it in Mac is significantly easier.

Have you tried managing the takout with this?
