New YouTube App Comparison To Older Version (4.0 vs 2.4)

2012-06-27
hey guys Davey here Boombah calm and let's finish oh you the differences between the old D to Bob that came with Ice Cream Sandwich compared to the new YouTube app now just recently updated by Google so I just opened both of these guys up and they both took me to this page where I see my recent videos from the channels I'm subscribed to on the right on the old version you have smaller thumbnails with the text on the right and on the new version you have larger thumbnails which does look a little bit better with white text over top of them not that big of an issue to me either way I mean I it's I think it's better looking but at the same time I feel like this is a little bit more efficient because you see like six videos at once compared to just three but not that big of an issue I do like the new way to navigate around the new YouTube app so for example over here on the old version if I want to see my categories I'd swipe over to the right wanna see my account so I were again I see my channel stats my uploads favorites playlist etc on this version what you do is you just swipe over to the left and you can just tap on account right here at the top so you actually see some more information this time or different information so I see my video views in total for my channel compared to just my channel views which is nice you also have an extra tab or two which is watch later and history when I go back out of here I also have the option to see all the channels that I'm subscribed to and their specific videos as you can see they're showing up right here so pretty cool way to navigate over here I have to hit subscriptions and then find the channel I want tap on that channel and then go to it that way so a little bit faster to get to you know the videos do you want from the channel you want I wanted to regular categories like I have over here under browse I just keep scrolling down and there they are but again not that big of a change um I do like it I think it's a little bit more convenient at least for the way I use YouTube app but what I think it really excels in I suppose the new app is the way you watch videos so I'll go ahead and load up this video really quick on both phones so let's go to uploads and load up this video so as you can see both videos are loading up but it does look a little bit so this one's volume up is up anyway um as you can see you see the like bar right here it's actually showing green verse over here you just have regular text which is nice you have the option to subscribe right there where over here you don't so I mean a little bit of differences you see the description the same way nothing different you have the related comments tab and nothing changed but I don't know if you guys can see that right here you have a red little red slider that I could actually fast-forward and rewind on the video which is awesome but over here there's no such option you know in order for me to fast-forward I actually have to take this guy and tilt it which you know I always do because I do watch a lot of YouTube on my phone and I have to swipe over like that so it's nice to be able to watch it in that portrait mode if I wanted to and be able to fast-forward the same time so definitely a cool advantage right there but other than that I mean there isn't really that big of a difference between the YouTube app obviously you know with any new version it's better I do like it I feel like everything's a little bit bigger if you guys noticed that I feel like the like buttons bigger that text is a little bit bigger but anyway that's pretty much it for me in this video just wanted to make a quick video showing us the differences if you found it helpful please hit the like button and subscribe thank you
