YouTube Api for android exception “service_missing”

Question

I want to play you tube video in my android application

I got exception while youtube initialization like \"service_missing\".

I write following code,

Answer 1

As the API documentation for the Youtube API states:

YouTubeInitializationResult.SERVICE_MISSING
The YouTube API service is missing on this device.

You'll need to install the Youtube app into the emulator to make it work.

Answer 2

The issue with Android 11 is the os is restricting access to other apps. https://developer.android.com/training/basics/intents/package-visibility

Add the following to manifest tag in AndroidManifest to fix YouTube issue:

<queries>
   <intent>
     <action android:name="com.google.android.youtube.api.service.START" />
   </intent>
</queries>```
