Google announces changes to YouTube mobile interface

Home lets users explore and discover videos with recommendations based on the viewing history and the customized playlists.

The update, which debuts three new tabs: Home, Subscriptions and Account, is available for Android now and will be rolling out for iOS soon.

Home lets users explore and discover videos with recommendations based on the viewing history and the customized playlists.

A new Subscriptions tab helps you find the latest videos from your favorite channels and creators. You can even tap the Bell icon on a channel to be notified when new videos are posted. The Account tab lets you check your playlists, watch history and the videos you’ve uploaded in one location, TNW says.

The Android version and now the iOS version, both support full screen playback of vertically shot videos.

In addition, Google says users can now trim footage, tint an image with filters, add music and upload – all within the YouTube app.

While that may be enough to get people started, YouTube promises even more improvements to come, TNW says.
