Systematic error. Impossible to use new pipe as of now

[test2a]

Please update to 0.20.2

[opusforlife2]

I am using the latest version - 0.20.1

Is that what you got from the instructions in the brackets?

Hello,
Thank you for your feedback. After search on fdroid it looks like I should use newpipe legacy on my device.
I just dowloaded it now and it works just fine.
Thanks again.
