Google has started the process of rolling out an update to YouTube taking it from version 6.0.3 up to version 10.02.3. The jump in version number seems odd as most indications thus far are that the changes are mostly cosmetic in nature with no major changes or features included. The biggest change seems to be in the “intents” screen that pops up when a user decides they want to share a video. Instead of a list of applications to choose from, a grid display is brought up instead.
Besides switching to a grid display for sharing, the new window also includes an option to “Copy URL” that is displayed in the top bar of the pop-up window. Outside of the change in the sharing options, voice search is once again present in the app. Upon hitting the search icon, users will notice a small microphone in the search bar. Just tapping that brings up the voice input box.
Others who are really paying attention to the YouTube app may notice the “replay” spinner is now pointing in the opposite direction. Sources indicate the code for the APK also includes some references to YouTube’s forthcoming video editing features. None of that code is active or visible to end users at present though. Users are also reporting performance seems to be a little bit better, particularly on older hardware, so the code may have been optimized a bit.
You can grab the APK to install manually on your device by visiting the source link below. If you are willing to be patient though, you can wait for the update to hit your account and then handle it through your normal update process.
