YouTube has recently launched some exciting features for its premium users that are going to change their video-watching experience. Although certain features are accessible on both the iOS and Android platforms, sadly not all of them are. The users will be pleased with these new features, particularly those who enjoy watching high-quality videos.
The ‘1080p Premium’ video quality option is one of YouTube Premium’s most eagerly awaited new features. Those who require the highest quality video frequently often crave this option. Google claims that this option delivers an “Enhanced Bitrate” that gives videos a very high degree of clarity and detail. Although the option is only accessible on iOS at the moment, it is anticipated to soon be made available on the web and android platforms as well. Samsung users, in particular, can anticipate full benefit from this feature as it will greatly improve the aesthetics of videos on their smartphones and tablets.
The second latest feature allows you to queue videos with your tablets and smartphones. This functionality has long been available on the site, but it is now also accessible via the mobile app. Instead of having to manually begin each video, users can queue up their favorite videos and let them play automatically one after the other.

The third feature, dubbed “Co-Watch,” makes advantage of Apple’s SharePlay feature to let FaceTime callers and iPhone users simultaneously view YouTube videos. Using Google Meet Live Sharing, this capability is also accessible on Samsung’s Galaxy smartphones and tablets.
The fourth feature, which is compatible with a variety of devices, enables YouTube Premium subscribers to resume viewing videos from where they last left off. For instance, if a user pauses a movie on their smartphone in the middle, YouTube will enable them to choose to pick up where they left off on their tablet or TV.
The fifth and final feature is “Smart Downloads,” which prompts the user’s device to download suggested videos so they could watch them even if they unexpectedly go offline. For people who wish to view videos on the move without using their mobile data, this function is helpful. However, those with little free space on their smartphones could find it to be a storage hog.
