Google is working hard in recent months and weeks as we can see in the constant updates of all its applications on both Android and iOS. It is clear that they have a little more in mind Android because it is "their operating system." One of the applications that are changing a lot in recent weeks is Youtube, the most popular video service app in the world, which is adopting multiple functions that we still cannot know on iOS. After the jump you have some of the characteristics that will soon be coming to the App Store from the Youtube app. The exact date the update will arrive is unknown at this time.
Let's welcome Material Design
Material Design is a set of rules and theories created by Google so that all applications have a similar design abiding by that set of rules. It went live in December 2014 and today many of the Google applications in the App Store have this design. Youtube, in its new update, will finally have Material Design characterized by the absence of menus and its simplification: at the bottom there will be three buttons: Home, Subscriptions, Playlists and Account.
Youtube will launch a new section: Home
In one of the tabs we can access the section Start, place where YouTube will give us a series of recommendations for both videos and playlists through an algorithm that takes into account our subscriptions and the history of videos viewed. It is a way to find videos that we like without the need to search for them, letting ourselves be carried away by our taste and the selection of Youtube.
The Vitamin Subscriptions section
When Google launches the new version of Youtube for iOS we will realize that the Subscriptions section It is no longer what it was. It will have interesting news such as accessibility to the notification of videos uploaded by the channels. For example, if we want iOS and YouTube to notify us when the iPad News channel uploads a video, we can do so in a way not as confusing as we did until now.
Your entire YouTube account in one place
Lastly, the last section is Bill, where we can consult the notifications configured in Subscriptions, the history of videos played and of course, our uploaded videos, and the playlists that we have created for our followers or for our enjoyment.
On the other hand, and to finish, we can edit videos Through the Youtube application itself, put copyright-free music on them, cut pieces, copy them, paste them ... that is, everything we could do with Youtube Capture but in the official version of Youtube.
I was using it for a while on my iphone 5 and I lost the update because I installed beta 3 of ios 9 but the app really liked an attractive design although at first it was difficult for me to adapt because I did not know where each function was, then I got used to it
