Additional information

First, thank you for still supporting Android 6.0, and such a small screen size as smartwatches have. UI works perfecty on so small screen size. Everything fits on screen, and its easy to use.
I like that NewPipe is able to play at least audio on my smartwatch. Im usually using it just to listen music on BT speaker.

But if there is any chance to fix also video playback for that device, it would be nice.
