News come to the Youtube app for iOS
The Youtube app has just implemented new gestures. These will allow us to use its interface in a more intuitive way and we will not have to rummage through the video options to activate and deactivate the functions most used by the user.
We already had gestures available such as double-clicking on the sides of the video to move forward and backward in 10-second frequencies, now a few more are added that we mention below.
New Youtube Gestures and Features:
These gestures can be enjoyed after updating the application to its latest version. If you do it and they don't appear, be patient because the implementation will be done little by little.
Gestures to access and exit full screen mode:
Playing the video with the iPhone in portrait, just swipe up to enter full screen. If you want to exit it, slide your finger down on the screen.
View video playback time:
If you'd rather see how much time is counting down compared to elapsed time in a video, now tap the timestamp to toggle between the two counters.
Access the list of chapters of a video:
The new chapter list view that we can find in a video, is seen by clicking on the chapter title in the player.You'll be able to see a full list of all the chapters included in the video you're watching, each with a thumbnail preview of what's in it.
In the following video you can see what the chapters of a Youtube video are. Access its description to see them.
New sub title and autoplay button location:
The sub titles button is no longer inside the button with the 3 dots and appears in the upper right part of the screen. In this way we can access them more directly.
As for the autoplay button, say that it is no longer under the videos and is now at the top right of them.

New actions are coming to improve the experience:
They are starting to implement suggested actions, which will ask us to rotate the phone or play a VR video when they think you can have a better experience.
How about all these new features and gestures? Would you ask them to add any more?.
We hope the news has interested you and you share it on your networks and favorite messaging apps.
Greetings.
