YouTube for Android officially gets bottom navigation bar

30 May 2017
The new look has been in testing since September of last year, but now it's about to go live for everyone.

I was about to comment on how bad YOUTUBE is bad on iOS because everything was at the bottom. Thank you Google for transferring the disease to Android.

      I really like the new UI it is easier now to access to the playlists and subscribed channels, apart from that it looks almost the same.

              LOL. They're porting the UI from iOS. The bottom navbar is easier for whatever reason. Don't tell me about back button on iPhone that placed in top-left corner. There's a swipe gesture for getting back there.

                AnonD-617820, 31 May 2017now YouTube needs to add AdBlock featureCause its their income source dum dum

                  Yeah I saw it when I woke up and I thought that maybe I'm still dreaming haha. Let's see.

                    They should've still kept the swipe to navigate UI with the bottom bar. Not a big fan of the current implementation

                      now YouTube needs to add AdBlock feature

                        I still can't search any video from a specific channel. There is only global search. Also, no option to see the most viewed video of a particular channel, like we have on the desktop.

                              myTube for Windows is the best YouTube client there is in my opinion. It has more features than what is available on Android.

                                    That's good news, it's easier to navigate with important things at the bottom. Looking forward to the update. They are also developing a bottom navigation bar for Chrome, it can already be turned on in chrome://flags, but it's still a bit undeveloped. Still, I prefer to use a browser with ad blocking.
