YouTube is one of the most popular services that Google has. The video service in streaming enjoys a high market share that reaches 1.500 billion users per month. However, since its appearance on the internet took place 12 years ago, the logo had remained intact.
It is the biggest change in memory. And it is that from now on YouTube won't make that emphasis on the word 'Tube'. And it is that this word in English refers to television in an informal sense. But a television of yesteryear, those that worked with cathode tubes. They were CRT televisions. Now, this technology has now passed away and revealed Google's negligence in updating this vision of the service.
Now the word YouTube will be preceded by a red 'Play' icon. That is, the red TV is removed from the word 'Tube' and the name of the service is left completely in black. Likewise, along with this redesign of the logo, the service also launches new functions, both in its desktop version and in its mobile version. If the new tools haven't arrived yet, don't worry because there won't be much left.
First we will go to the main novelty in your desktop version is that now you can change the background color of the service. Now going from normal to dark background will be a matter of clicking on your profile photo. Once there you only have to activate the 'Dark theme' function.
Meanwhile, in the mobile version the new features are various. For example: now you can enjoy vertical videos full screen. Likewise, you can rewind backwards with a double tap of the screen on the left side. Or you can tapping forward on the right side of the screen. On the other hand, now you can also decide the playback speed of the videos.
