"<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>" on line 634 needs to be replaced with a short rule that explains what the program does.

I think the label shown on F-Droid, i.e. "A free lightweight YouTube frontend for Android", would be suitable

Ah yes. The author of the issue should have demanded or taken action at some point...

As a user, the most important things I would notice in the logo are FOSS, Youtube and other services, and Android.
The lightweight doesn't matter. Nor does front-end.
How about "Newpipe - A FOSS client for Youtube and other streaming services"?

On GitHub it is "A libre lightweight streaming front-end for Android"
Libre is a disambiguation between free (price) and free (as in freedom) and libre means free (as in freedom). You should read this to know more about libre software.

I would not change the license at all. There is no need to do so, I don't think it's a good idea to deviate from the upstream text.

You know what? Please ignore my previous review. I think you have a valid point, at least with the first change of the description. It seems you're right about other hosting platforms.
However, I think @B0pol and @TobiGr need to propose a proper text we should include there. Ideally, this'll be the same slogan we'll later apply in all the other places.

We are Team NewPipe, not TeamNewPipe. The repo url is TeamNewPipe but if you go it, you'll see Team NewPipe as name.

Update all copyright notices with HTTPS links, as mentioned in the license here (with this change, and according to the newest version on gnu.org), the copyright notices in files should have HTTPS links.

change NewPipe by NewPipe Extractor for NewPipe Extractor.
And move this right after package declaration, before imports
