YouTube
Watch videos uploaded by your favorite subscribers
The app was designed to provide you with quick access to your favorite videos on YouTube from anywhere. Log into your account or simply browse through various videos divided into categories and you'll surely find something interesting to watch.
You can either browse through channels or playlists, but those are basically your only search filters and considering you'll be watching from your phone, it would be useful if the app allowed you to search videos based on their lenght.
Sign in with an account to use all features
This app is useful for watching videos, but if you want video suggestions or to check out the latest uploads by your subscribers, then you should sign in with an account. It offers you the option to see your viewing history and to save videos to watch later. You can also upload your own content or rate videos you watch.
One of this app's cool features is that it allows you to add videos to your own playlist or favorites while on the go or share them with friends via social networking sites. The app makes if easy to find new music or check out some of your old favorites. You can discover songs and artists on the music homepage. There's also the option of listening to an endless YouTube Mix inspired by your favorite song or artist.
Unstable and rudimentary built
A YouTube app for Android is surely welcomed, but the developers didn't come up with anything new or interesting for this app. The GUI is easy to use, but the video minimizing option may prove annoying when browsing for other videos, especially since it covers part of the screen.
There's also no option to adjust volume directly from the screen, which could come in handy and this built isn't very stable, the app stopped when the highest available video quality was selected.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The user-interface is neat, but more search filters could come in handy and minimized videos take up a fair portion of the screen. |
Function7
The app actually stopped when the highest video quality was selected. There are no icons or gestures to adjust volume. |
Security9
It requires online registration to use most of its features. |
Battery6
It's an app for playing videos, so it will take a tool on your battery, keep a charger nearby. |
Price7
It doesn't have an ad bar, but some videos do come with ads and there's no option of removing them. |
Compatibility8
The developer doesn't specify the Android versions required for this app. |
It's a great app for checking out videos, but it has few search filters, volume adjustments and this version actually crashed when video quality was increased.
