YouTube’s new Home Page – Quick wrap


The new YouTube homepage is here. Bringing more features to the viewing experience on Home, the update is rolling out today across desktops & YouTube apps on Android & iOS Tablets.

YouTube said on its blog that the new look included longer video titles & larger, richer thumbnails to give viewers “clearer information about the video at a glance”, plus higher resolution video previews. As part of this cleaner design, some content shelves have been removed. You can still find rows of videos for breaking news, music mixes, & more.

When browsing on Home, you’ll also see channel icons below each video making it easier to recognize your favorite creators & Content you love.

You can now customize what to watch next with your queue

Also introduced is the add to queue option on the desktop. You can select a handful of videos to watch next without interrupting the video you’re currently watching. Videos in your queue won’t save after you’ve closed your browser, but you can always save videos to your permanent “Watch Later” playlist, too.
