    As the title says - i cant watch videos unless i'm connected to wifi. Videos wont work through mobile data on any sites except the youtube app strangely enough.

    Anyone else have this problem?

    Thanks

    That's generally a per app setting.

    Thanks. It had been working fine up until a few days ago and I haven't changed any settings.

    What kind of settings should I be looking out for?

    Well look in settings for the app name and click on it. Some apps don't work out of the box by design.

    It could also be your carrier restricting access. In fact given it just started happening it looks like it is.
