YouTube has launched a new app for iPhone and iPod touch.
According to a blog post, “the new app is built by YouTube engineers, to give our iPhone and iPod touch users the best mobile experience” offering more features than a previous pre-loaded version.
New features now offered by the updated app, that seems to focus mostly on watching rather than uploading the “tens of thousands more videos” now available, include a channel guide that can be viewed by swiping and tweaked search tools that autocomplete suggestions for you.
According to iSource, The reason that “œtens of thousands more videos“ are now available, is due to the new app’s ability to display advertisements.
Users can now also share their favourite videos on Google+, Twitter and Facebook. Alternatively YouTube fans can also share videos through text message in the app as well as email.
YouTube are also currently working on an optimized version of the app for iPad, expected to be available in the coming months.
Download the new app from the App Store.
