YouTube Premium will now offer higher-quality videos for web and iOS users, allowing viewers to enjoy crisper images and a superior viewing experience on devices. This addition comes as YouTube looks to retain subscribers by catering to their individual needs. For those looking to share video with others through FaceTime, the subscription plan now supports co-watching. Finally, subscriber controls such as limit tracking which videos can be played in succession are now available on mobile devices.
Some have argued that YouTube Red, which served as a premium subscription service with fewer restrictions than the ad-supported version, didn’t achieve as much success as was initially hoped. With this expansion of features, YouTube hopes to better compete against rivals like Netflix and Hulu by providing more value to its subscribers.
There is something very exciting about watching a YouTube video over and over again. The Continue Watching feature allows you to do just that! This handy button keeps you right where you left off the last time you watched a clip, making it even easier to revisit
Premium subscribers in the US and Canada can now watch Virtual Reality (VR) videos on their favorite devices. This includes 360 degree videos as well as photos and live streams that can be viewed through virtual reality goggles or apps like Oculus Rift and HTC Vive. The new addition also allows users to use YouTube cards to share specific VR experiences with others.
Fans of YouTube Premium will likely welcome the addition of an enhanced bitrate for 1080p HD videos. This could mean that videos look extra crisp and clear, which could help to better live up to its name as a premium service.
YouTube is expanding its viewing options with the addition of support for Apple’s SharePlay, which allows users to watch content together on a screen. This differentiates YouTube from rivals such as TikTok, which was one of the first platforms to support the feature. With this addition, YouTube is positioning itself as a more versatile video service for users.
Some people will respond better to a fun experience, while others may value reliability and ease of use. YouTube’s SharePlay tries to be both by adopting the co-viewing perk model of some services like Netflix and Meet, but also including some unique features that set it apart. For example, users can add specific people they want to share videos with without needing their email addresses or phone numbers. Additionally, if there is ever an issue with a sharing connection or video playback, users can easily cancel the share manually without any penalty.
Since its release, YouTube Premium has had a number of features that differ from the regular YouTube service. This new feature, which is available to both premium and free users, lets users control what video they want to play next during their current viewing session. This could be useful for people who have a lot of videos waiting in their queue and don’t want to have to keep watching one after the other without some sort of pause or stopping mechanism. It also gives premiumusers an advantage over free users in that they are not limited to only watching YouTube videos on YouTube’s website and app; they can watch them on any device that supports Flash playback.
YouTube Premium is a paid subscription service that bundles ad-free viewing, background play for watching when the screen is locked, offline downloads, and access to YouTube Music Premium. This new update includes new features such as Dynamic Playlists which create playback recommendations based on what you’ve watched in the past. These updates join other YouTube Premium features which, beyond ad-free viewing, include background play for watching when the screen is locked, offline downloads, and access to YouTube Music Premium.
