San Francisco, Aug 5 (TIWN) With larger and easier-to-interact buttons, Google-owned content sharing platform YouTube is testing a revamped user interface (UI) for the "Up Next" videos on Android.
If the “Autoplay” toggle in the “Up next” playlist is enabled, you have 8 seconds before the next video starts. This countdown was previously a circular indicator around the play button that let you start immediately. In the top-left corner, YouTube noted the clip coming up next and channel, while a rewatch button for the current one was below. This new interface is frankly barebones, but utilitarian and more straightforward with larger touch targets. In the top-left corner is a numeric countdown that actually specifies how many seconds are remaining. A larger preview thumbnail is included, with title and uploader next to it. The biggest enhancement are two large, side-by-side buttons to “Cancel” or “Play now.” The latter is lighter in color, while the former action can also be accomplished by an “X” in the top-right corner of the screen.
