As it says on your device and here https://apps.apple.com/us/app/youtube-watch-listen-stream/id544007664
YouTube requires iOS 17 or higher. If you can, update the iOS version on your device. This support article has instructions about updating an iPhone or iPad wirelessly --> https://support.apple.com/HT204204 Read the article for recommended criteria for being able to use wireless updating. You can also use Mac and PC computers to update system software --> https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/update-ios-iph3e504502/ios
If you cannot update then you will need to buy a newer device which can run iOS 17. Alternatively, try watching YouTube with a web browser.

Though you don't mention what iPhone and version of iOS you're using, that error message leads me to believe that you are running a version of iOS older than 17.0. If that's the case, and you can update, do so. If you can't update because your phone is too old, you're out of luck.
If that's not the problem, please use some words to explain what is.
