FREEdi YouTube Player 3.0.5
Clean and well-structured UI
The app's interface roughly resembles that of YouTube, except for the banner ads on the bottom of the screen. The menu is neatly arranged on the left side of the screen and there's a toolbar with specific features for each section.
No instructions of use but they could have been useful. At times when you navigate through the app, you may get confused so the UI should have a bar from where you can always access the video that's playing. The app has some stability issues and fails to load videos at times.
Log in to your YouTube account and enjoy your favorite music
As opposed to some similar apps, this player makes it extremely easy to log in to your YouTube account and access all your uploads, favorite videos and subscriptions. However, you don't necessarily have to do sign in, you can create playlists or watch videos even without an account.
All categories of videos are neatly displayed on the left side of the screen, making it easy to find clips on a certain topic. There's also a search bar with auto-fill suggestions and a list of last played songs. The app opens with a list of trending videos, their names is displayed at the top which may get confusing since on YouTube they're at the bottom.
Read comments and watch various videos
Each video comes with a comments section, but users can't actually post replies. Also the watch later icon is missing, but you can still rate clips or share them on social networks.
Videos play while you scroll for similar content and the app lets you add multiple clips to a playlist. You can set a sleep timer, adjust video and audio quality or have videos on repeat. The app comes with a privacy mode.
