Some Android users report seeing a new video player UI in the YouTube app. Many feel this new UI is too dense and cluttered.
You can only swipe down to minimize a video if it’s the first video in a playlist (or not part of a playlist at all).
That seems really daft. Things like swipe gestures work on muscle memory - but if you have yo also consciously remember whether what you’re watching is in a playlist or not, it’s much less intuitive.
I like swipe down to minimise and use it a lot. This feels like it could be a real pain.
Can’t wait till it’s revanced…
Thanks for reminding me to update
Why does it now have two play/pause buttons? Also - yay, more swipey navigation gestures so you can doomscroll 40% easier…
Me on Revanced what are they talking.
( i don’t use it that much btw)
I’m confused. Is this for the youtube app or the android mobile site?
YouTube app on Android.
Wonder if they are trying to go after all the public/open source apps that are pulling from their site and removing the ads.
