YouTube Features:

➠ Better Design

It’s very clear that the new YouTube app has some great improvements compared to the last version. Thumbnails for videos are well-designed and rightly placed.

➠ Hidden Slider Menu

On the interface of new YouTube app, you will find a menu icon in the upper left corner. You can slide it to the right to see your menu.

➠ Fast and Smooth

The new YouTube app brings a smooth transition from page to page. You can tap your fingers to feel every movement.

➠ Better Sharing Options

Now you can share anything on YouTube with your friends and family on Google+, Twitter, Facebook, or via text and email.

➠ Better Search Functions

The improved search function of YouTube helps you find the videos you’re looking for in a much faster way. The automated suggestions will pop up in the search result.

Note:

Apparently, Google has done an excellent job to improve the YouTube app. It’s not easy to roll so many things on a small screen especially videos, but Google accomplished something wonderful, just as well as its search engines. And we hope to see more good stuff later.
