youtube-update-api

Google has just announced on its support page new changes to the YouTube application for the different operating systems where it is located. And it's not good news at least for users with older iPhones and users who still enjoy a second-generation Apple TV. With the new update you will receive the application for watch kitten videosDevices that are running a version prior to iOS 7 as well as models prior to the Apple TV that is currently on sale will no longer be able to use the application.

They will not be able to use the application, but If they will be able to use the browser to be able to enter YouTube and use it regularly, although this method is much more cumbersome and annoying than using the native application that is installed on our device. But not only will Apple devices be affected with the YouTube API update, but users who have a Sony and Panasonic Smart TV before 2012 will be forced to use the browser integrated in the TV if it is necessary. they have them, Blu-ray players and game consoles.

If you are a user of an iPhone or iPad with iOS 6 or earlier version of iOS, if you want to continue using your device to watch YouTube videos you will have to do it through the browser introducing the web http://m.youtube.com On the other hand, if you have a second-generation Apple TV, things get complicated since you won't be able to use it again for YouTube.

Maybe it's a good chance now that Apple has lowered the price of the third generationUp to 69 dollars / 79 euros, to update the device or wait a few months to see if Apple, according to all the rumors, launches a new version of Apple TV.

    I do not know who makes the headlines but has little or no idea about what the issue is about ... They will NOT stop working, what will happen is that they will NOT give support. There is a world between not working and not supporting ...

      What do I do now with my son's ipad? We throw away the iPad?
      And the option is to buy a new Ipad for a child to see pepa pig ???
      They are covardes and what happens is that surely it has to do with ads and that they have no way to continue stealing.
      ridiculous.

        I suppose you are talking about a first generation iPad. If the YouTube app doesn't work, you can use Safari to access YouTube.
