Could use more music apps like Google or Tidal

It automatically connects with my Kenwood

Works great most of the time. Sometimes I have to reinstall the plug on my phone cause the apps won't load but great after that.
★★★★★
It's a GREAT stereo that plays my Amazon Music and gives me maps and verbalizes directions. My only issue is it turns on by itself, with no vehicle running when I turn my phone on in the morning.
★★☆☆☆
Very poor app. Wish I bought a head unit with Android auto support. The map app on this is useless, and you're unable to search for a destination! Waze support has gone since kenwood firmware update.
★★☆☆☆
Can't play some of my videos on YouTube. I don't know what happened but this sucks.

This app worked somewhat ok when I purchased my head unit, (Kenwood 8180DABS unit coupled with a new Sony Expedia 10 III android 11 phone)) although be it worked for only a couple of months - but even then, it was very slow to connect to the YouTube app (all the other apps worked fine.maps etc.). A shame because YouTube was the only app I was likely to use. I have a constant error message on the YouTube screen which says "video unavailable" but on home laptop hey-presto! The same video plays without fail. It's as if this app doesn't have enough energy/power to connect to YouTube; either that, or YouTube has a tendency to block the Weblink app?? I even went to have my entertainment checked over in an attempt to get YouTube to work, without success. Everything else on the entertainment system works well; SatNav, DAB Audio etc. etc., ...so this suggests there is no problem with the GPS... I have updated as much as this Weblink app allows, removed and re-installed the app and made sure all connections with the unit are in the correct slots... This app is very poor; so beware if you're purchasing a Kenwood head unit with the Weblink app - at best it is extremely poor. Will never purchase anything with Abalta Weblink name attached again - utter rubbish app, be warned, stay clear!
