There are slight changes to the UI when playing videos and shorts on YouTube’s mobile apps.
YouTube recently rolled out a bunch of features for Premium users, and it appears that’s not everything new coming for its mobile users. Some users are reporting a new look for the YouTube mobile app, and their feedback is not positive.
Multiple users on Reddit are reporting that they are seeing a redesigned interface when playing a video in the YouTube mobile app. The reactions are not the best, with one user posting that they’re not a fan of it, while another user commented that they “got literally jumpscared by this.”
The most striking change is that the title of the video has moved next to the profile picture of the channel. The profile picture is now bigger, which leaves less space for the title and cuts it off.
