A YouTube focuses app “Play” by Marcos Antonio Tanaka allows users to easily organize the content they will like to watch later and also access it directly from the Home Screen. The YouTube app enables users to save videos to watch later only.
The “Play” app makes it easy to add and watch YouTube videos on iOS and macOS
Play app is integrated with the system’s Share Sheet which automatically identifies the bookmarked videos without leaving the YouTube app. In addition, users can manually add videos on the app by dragging and dropping their URL in the app. The marked “Watch Later” videos library can be organized by channel names, uploaded dates, and more.
iOS users can directly play the bookmarked YouTube videos from their Home Screens via Play widgets. And with iCloud support, users’ content is updated across devices.
Easily add videos by dragging and dropping them into the app. You can view your videos in a list, search, filter, sort, and organize them using tags. iCloud sync keeps your database up-to-date on your iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Start watching with one tap, from the app or from the Control Center, with some of Play’s customizable widgets.
