Despite the news that the YouTube application is not present in the iOS 6 system, Apple and Google confirmed the news, and then Google released a separate application for YouTube that we referred to. In a previous articleBut there is a large percentage of users who were surprised by the lack of the application after updating to iOS 6, and they wondered where the YouTube application went? Will it come back again?
Apple is seeking to stop relying on its main competitors such as Samsung and Google. For Samsung, Apple has begun to acquire companies that provide some of the products that Apple buys from Samsung, such as processor, memory, and others. As for Google, Apple has announced the suspension of the Google Maps service in iOS 6 and revealed Its "weak" maps application and also terminated the YouTube contract, which led to the end of the existence of the application, which had been in the phone for 5 years, but this is not bad, as we mentioned earlier that removing the official YouTube application will be in the interest of the user; Because it prompted Google to launch a separate application and can update it periodically and add features to it without waiting for Apple to update the iOS system as it used to happen in the past, so YouTube has an independent application as it happens in the Android system
The Google application is considered a good application as a first copy and its specifications can be known in detail through this article, but the application did not like a good number of users and pushed them to give it only 3 stars in the store, but of course this is not the end as Google can now issue continuous updates to the application and add features And fix the defects and deficiencies in it, such as not supporting the iPad, but also life does not stop at Google and it is not a requirement that Google offers the best application for YouTube as the owner of the site, for example, the best Twitter application is not the official application but the Tweetbot application with a wide difference between the two applications.
Currently, if you feel that the official YouTube application is not good, you can try other applications such as
- The app is clearly fast.
- You can choose more than one theme
- The application supports iPhone 5 and also Universal, which are points missing from the official YouTube application because it does not support the iPad.
- Play videos in the background and also "Play List" playlists, which is another point that the official app is missing
- If you play a long video and then close the app, it will remember where you left off the video.
- The ability to see comments and also comment on any video.
- There are dozens of other advantages that make it a distinct application and surpasses the official application and it is beautiful that all these advantages are in the first version of the application, meaning there are updates coming with more advantages:
You can also try other applications, some of which are not free, but have many advantages, such as FoxTube, which is not free and has many advantages
IPad version
The conclusion is that the old YouTube application has gone without return, and this is in the interest of the user and not against him, because it is now free and chooses between many applications that can be updated without waiting for Apple to update the system, and the same thing may be repeated with the Maps application and Google introduces an application and perhaps even Nokia puts its maps in an application There is nothing to prevent.
