YouTube recently added some new features for YouTube Premium in order to increase the sales of the premium subscription service.
YouTube premium offers basic features – ad-free viewing, downloadable clips, YouTube Music that can be played in the background, etc., which comes at a cost of $11.99 per month.
Here are the new features for YouTube Premium –
From this week, YouTube Premium subscribers will also be able to access:
Content queuing – Premium users can now create a queue of content that they want to watch in sequence, to streamline the viewing experience.
Watch Together – YouTube’s also expanding its Watch Together options, which will enable Premium subscribers to create watch parties via Google Meet.
“Through Meet Live Sharing on Android devices, Premium members can host Google Meet sessions where all attendees, regardless of whether they are Premium or free users, can watch YouTube videos together. In the coming weeks, we’re also rolling out this experience for FaceTime users on iOS via SharePlay.”
That’ll provide more options for engagement and interaction within the YouTube Premium experience.
Cross-Device Transition – YouTube will also now enable Premium users to continue watching YouTube clips wherever they previously left off, even as they switch between devices.
Offline viewing – YouTube will automatically download videos to your library when you’re connected to Wi-Fi, so that you can watch your favorite clips in offline mode whenever you choose.
Enhance Video Quality – Finally, YouTube’s also launching an enhanced bitrate version of 1080p HD video quality starting on iOS.
“While all users will still have access to 1080p, this enhanced 1080p quality setting will look extra crisp and clear, especially for videos with lots of detail and motion. Whether you’re an avid sports fan or locked in on the latest gaming videos, this new feature will bring an even deeper visual quality to our members!”
Nice offerings! YouTube says that it currently has 80 billion Premium members.
