Stephen Robles of AppleInsider shared a shortcut for redirecting YouTube links into the app:

Or, long press the YT link, run this Shortcut, you’re watching in the app: https://t.co/oFQBvwkkf7

The shortcut works by replacing the https with youtube – using Stephen’s own YouTube channel URL as an example, it’d appear like youtube://www.youtube.com/@beardfm.

Time to add this to my YouTube collection 🙂

Get the Watch In YouTube shortcut from Stephen’s tweet.
