Get ready for a better YouTube experience! YouTube is adding many features for mobile and tablet users. Stay tuned, because these awesome updates are on their way to YouTube users worldwide over the next few weeks.
Lock Screen: A lock screen feature is being introduced for mobile and tablet users, preventing interruptions during video playback.
Users can now easily switch video playback speed to 2x by pressing & holding anywhere on the video player in full screen or portrait mode. This feature will be accessible across web, tablets, and mobile devices.
YouTube was originally intended to be a dating app, which is one of its little-known facts.
YouTube is introducing a 'Stable Volume' feature to ensure a consistent audio experience, reducing abrupt volume changes while browsing videos.
The Library tab & Account Page are merging into a new 'You Tab,' streamlining access to watched videos, playlists, downloads, purchases, account settings & channel information.
Creators can now make the 'like' and 'subscribe' buttons come to life with visual cues synchronised to their videos. And when viewers take the action, they'll be greeted with a subtle burst of delightful sparkles as a reward.
Users will soon have the capability to search for songs by playing, singing, or humming, with AI matching audio to the original recording. This feature will initially roll out on Android devices.
