The update Google’s popular video sharing web site made to its Mobile service brought much joy and happiness to millions of mobile phone users, as now YouTube for Mobile can be used on handsets that can run video streaming and are supported by any 3G operator.
YouTube announced the big thing on Thursday; this update of its mobile applications will significantly expand the number of supported mobile phone technologies that can allow the viewing of the popular web sites’ millions of videos.
Until now, YouTube for Mobile was available only through deals with Verizon, Apple and Helio; but from now on, any user that owns a mobile phone running video streaming is able to access YouTube on his or her handset, as the service is supported by any 3G operator. According to YouTube, about 100 million devices will be able to access YouTube for Mobile thanks to this recent update.
In addition to this important improvement, new YouTube for Mobile features will allow users to personalize their use of the videos; they can access YouTube Favorites, Videos and Channels, as well as their accounts on their mobile phones, for example. Furthermore, from now on people will be able to upload video directly from their mobile devices, as they will also be able to rate and comment on videos directly from their phones.
The new mobile offerings will be available in 11 languages, in 17 countries.
