iPhone/iPod Touch: The new YouTube app for the iPhone and iPod Touch offers thousands of new VEVO music videos that were previously desktop only, lets you search by voice, and features an overhauled UI that makes browsing playlists and favorites easier.
we knew that Google was planning to launch its own iOS app since Apple said iOS 6 won't come bundled with it, but the new YouTube app is more than just a stand-alone version of the previous iOS version. In addition to the sharing features, the new app has a good-looking channel guide full of recommended channels and videos based on the ones you've watched and liked. The design is similar to the Google+ app, with a slide-out sidebar that provides quick access to settings and playlists.
Sharing in the new app is easier as well: one tap brings up options to share a video on Google+, Twitter, Facebook, and more. The news isn't all good though: the new YouTube app is optimized for smaller iPhone and iPod Touch screens only, and an iPad version will be available "in the coming months," according to Google. Plus, the new YouTube app lets you consume video, but there's no way to record or upload your own video, a feature that's sorely missing. Either way, the new app is worth a download, if for no other reason than that the old one is going away.
