Why some YouTube videos are not available in the app?

Note: This article has been updated with lastest available information on June 5th, 2025 at 07:37 am

There are a couple of reasons why certain YouTube videos may not appear in the Spark app:

  1. Video length limit: The app only shows videos that are 20 minutes or shorter. If a video exceeds this length, it won’t appear in the search results.
  2. Privacy settings: Only public YouTube videos are available in the app. Private and Unlisted videos will not show up.

    Does anyone know how to watch an “unlisted” YouTube video in the Spark App? I can watch it on my laptop as I have a direct link saved to it. It is unlisted, not private.
