Official YouTube application updated
Google, who now own YouTube, have released an updated version of their application for Symbian devices. The YouTube application for Symbian is great, if you haven’t tried it yet then do it NOW!
Seriously, it’s a good piece of kit. It really speeds up the viewing of videos, which is especially great when showing off to your friends ![]()
But the S60 browser is fine at displaying YouTube videos… Yes, that is correct but it’s much easier to use the application and it also has a much nicer interface that’s more suited to a phone’s screen than any website will ever be.
Any ways, this new version comes with numerous improvements…
- Performance improvements.
- User account integration. (My Account)
- Search suggestions.
- New user interface tailored towards larger, touch screen based devices.
The user account integration includes favourites, subscriptions and playlists to help you out when on the move. For example, if you add a video to your favourites on your PC then boom, it’s on the app.
When you find the video you want to watch and click on it, a tasty animation transitioning from search results to video player mode is shown – adding to that already tasty user interface. The player offers all the usual functionality such as Play, Pause, Seeking and Volume.
So head over to www.youtube.com with your phone and you should find a nice little message telling you about the new version of the youtube app. Give it a go, it’s free! ![]()
