Official YouTube App On iOS Review

2012-09-11
how's it going guys Davy here from phone booths calm and in this one we're doing a quick overview of the YouTube app on iOS it's actually the iphone version because the ipad version hasn't came out yet but it's gonna be coming out in the near future but i'm demonstrating it on my iPad because i don't have my iphone on me right now so let's go ahead and go to the App Store and take a look at the app page as you can see it is made by google inc so it's the official youtube app and there's a couple of reasons why this has actually come up now instead of into the future mainly because the partnership or the licensing agreement between youtube and Apple has expired they opted not to renew it you just said the main reason is because nobody can make a better YouTube app than you to themselves which is probably true but another reason you know i think is probably more of the reason is because the iOS version of the youtube app didn't allow for advertisements like the youtube app on android does and obviously that's how YouTube makes their money and also their partners make their money so it's clear to see why they did this um honestly I think it's a good thing because i'll show you right now why i wasn't too happy with the iOS version of the youtube app that's pretty much you know been the same since the iphone came out go ahead and tap on this guy so against the iphone version I've enlarge it on my iPad when you're when you first open the app you're taken to your feed page and you'll see the feed of all your channels that you've subscribed to I just download this so I didn't actually log in and you can see that i just have the popular videos that are on YouTube right now on my feed page if i want to go to my menu all i have to do is swipe over to the left kind of like you would on the android version i mean exactly i do what I'm android version I'm you can see your categories for YouTube right here if we were to sign in you would see all your channels right over here let's go ahead and tap into settings so you guys can see what you guys can do so you did make your home feed be whatever you want like uploads only or highlights you could have you know save search filtering all that good stuff that you would normally expect if you actually watch a video so let's go ahead and watch a video really quick so watch you know what we'll do a search for phone book so you search you search for the voice or you could type i'll hit search my typing i'll tap on a video really quick and you can see it can be playing go ahead and pause that and you can see the descriptions right over here you hit suggested and you have basically related videos go to comments could read the comments that you have over here and also you kid add a comment cool things you can be watching the video while you're doing that from here you can subscribe as well so if you haven't subscribe to phone buff please do that now because I'm be doing a lot of videos like this into the future and hoping to compare this anyway enough of my little advertisement you could thumbs up and thumbs down the video from right here and also you can share it on google+ twitter facebook email etc and you can do a whole bunch of other options you can see here like watch later as favourites add to playlist flag so pretty cool options that we have here we go back to the search and hit settings you can see I can actually have a whole bunch of search options so you search you know between the relevance or upload date you can choose between how long the videos etc so overall I like the YouTube app a lot more now I mean I wasn't happy with the YouTube app on iOS like i said before but it's really cool now you i like the fact that i'm able to go in here of course you get fast forward and rewind you go fullscreen if you tilt the phone over I'm on the iPad so I don't feel like doing that because it won't fit into my camera's viewfinder but anyway that's pretty much it for the youtube app i'll go ahead and show you guys what it looks like on android you guys aren't familiar so that way gets to see looks pretty much the same so let's go to unlock the sky so here here's the nexus 7 you can see my trending videos if I swipe over to the left I get all the categories just like it did on the iOS version I'm actually signed in here so you can see some channels and subscribe to and far to go to settings pretty much the same stuff so pretty cool um anyways that's it from me and this review if you found it helpful please hit the thumbs up button and subscribe to the channel like I said earlier um thank you for watching the video bye
