The popular video-sharing service is available for mobile phones, smart TVs, and media streaming devices. While it offers many advantages, including the ability to download videos to watch offline, it also has some drawbacks. Here&#8217;s what you need to know about the app. Read on to discover how to download and install it on your device.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"YouTube_is_available_on_mobile_phones_smart_TVs_and_media_streaming_devices\"><\/span>YouTube is available on mobile phones, smart TVs, and media streaming devices<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To watch YouTube on your TV, first download the YouTube app and sign into your account. Once signed in, you will need to choose the option to watch on TV and enter your TV&#8217;s code. The app may also automatically link with your TV. Then, just tap play on your TV to enjoy the videos on your big screen. You can also drop comments right on the TV screen!<\/p>\n<p>In addition to mobile devices, the YouTube app is available on smart TVs, media streaming systems, and mobile phones. You can even watch live TV on these devices. YouTube has made this option available nationwide, and it&#8217;s available for both smart TVs and media streaming devices. It&#8217;s also free for up to a week, which means that you can try it without risk.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"It_lets_you_save_videos_for_offline_viewing\"><\/span>It lets you save videos for offline viewing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Whether you&#8217;re looking for music videos or movies, YouTube has the features to help you keep them for offline viewing. You can choose to save the videos to your phone as MP4 files and watch them later. After downloading, you can select the quality of the videos to watch them offline. You can also choose to download videos in HD or low quality. If you want to view them later on your phone, you can turn off the &#8220;Save Over Wi-Fi only&#8221; toggle.<\/p>\n<p>Another way to download videos from YouTube is to change its URL. You can search for the videos by entering their keywords. When the search results appear on your screen, tap on the three dots next to the video. Once you&#8217;ve selected the quality you want, tap download. You can watch these videos offline whenever you like, as long as you have the appropriate software. You can also subscribe to a YouTube channel to have content automatically downloaded to your phone.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"It_has_some_drawbacks\"><\/span>It has some drawbacks<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The YouTube app is a great tool, but there are also some drawbacks. Depending on your device, you might experience problems with the app if you have an older version. Some of these issues can be resolved by clearing the data or cache on your device. This will clear out all data stored on your device and reset the browser or Chrome if necessary. However, if you are still experiencing problems, here are some ways to fix them.<\/p>\n<p>YouTube claims to have strict filters on what users can and cannot post, but it doesn&#8217;t always work. When you search for a particular topic on YouTube, you might find videos that contain hate speech or graphic violence. Another problem is the annoying recommendations, which can fill your home screen with videos you last watched. While this is a minor inconvenience, the downsides are worth considering. If you are a parent, YouTube&#8217;s parental block option can help protect your children from inappropriate content.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"It_can_be_uninstalled\"><\/span>It can be uninstalled<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>YouTube app comes preinstalled on Android devices. However, you can still uninstall it from the Google Play market. In this guide, we will show you how to do this. First, you need to go to the home screen of your Android device. After you have opened the home screen, you can find the YouTube app icon. Next, tap the application icon and hold it down. A list of available actions will appear. Select &#8216;Uninstall&#8217; or &#8216;Trash&#8217; to get rid of the app. Finally, release your finger to dismiss the application.<\/p>\n<p>You can also uninstall YouTube manually from your Android device. To do this, open the Applications app. In the Applications app, locate and click on &#8220;YouTube&#8221;. Tap the YouTube icon and then tap the &#8220;Uninstall&#8221; button. If you are using an old Android device, you can delete the old version of the app. Otherwise, you can install a newer version. If you have a newly-installed Android device, you can also delete YouTube from your device.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"It_has_some_alternatives\"><\/span>It has some alternatives<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve been frustrated with the Google Play Store&#8217;s limited selection of apps, you might want to consider the following Youtube alternatives. If you&#8217;re looking for a simple, lightweight YouTube alternative, you may want to check out Flytube. With a size of only 5 MB, this app will not take up much space. It comes with many useful features such as a multitask window mode, explore feed, live streams, equalizers, and moveable pop ups. It can also play videos in the background or in PIP mode, which means that you can work on something else while you watch videos.<\/p>\n<p>Another great alternative is Dailymotion, which lets you cast the interface onto a Smart TV. Dailymotion also allows you to follow verified channels and find trending videos. You can also share videos to social media accounts like Facebook and Twitter. If you are looking for a YouTube app for Android, you may also want to check out RaveDJ, which offers millions of videos and a live chat feature. While many of these YouTube alternatives aren&#8217;t ideal for everyone, you can find something you like in no time.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YiXHhDZaiIw\" height=\"197\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"353\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Do I Download and Install the YouTube App?
