Last night, Microsoft rolled out their new YouTube app designed specifically for their new Xbox 360 dashboard redesign. The new YouTube app is not available to all Xbox users at the moment, just those that are preview program participants.
However, from first reports, the new app seems a great addition to the Xbox 360 dashboard. If you are a member of the Xbox preview program, you can install the new Xbox YouTube app from the Apps Marketplace to give it a try.
Features and Enhancements
The new YouTube app for Xbox 360 brings a host of features and enhancements designed to improve the user experience. One of the most notable features is the integration with the Xbox 360’s Kinect sensor, allowing users to navigate the app using voice commands and gestures. This hands-free control makes it easier to search for videos, play content, and even control playback without needing a traditional controller.
Additionally, the app supports high-definition video playback, ensuring that users can enjoy their favorite YouTube content in the best possible quality. The interface has been optimized for the Xbox 360, providing a seamless and intuitive browsing experience. Users can easily access their subscriptions, playlists, and recommended videos, making it simple to find and watch the content they love.
Community and User Feedback
The initial feedback from the Xbox preview program participants has been overwhelmingly positive. Many users have praised the app’s smooth performance and the convenience of using voice commands to control the app. The integration with the Xbox 360 dashboard has also been well-received, as it allows for a more cohesive and streamlined user experience.
One user commented, “The new YouTube app on Xbox 360 is fantastic! The voice control feature is a game-changer, and the video quality is excellent. It’s so much easier to find and watch my favorite videos now.”
Another user shared, “I love how the app integrates with my Xbox 360 dashboard. It feels like a natural extension of the system, and the interface is very user-friendly. I can’t wait for the full release so that everyone can enjoy it.”
As yet, Microsoft hasn’t released any information as to when the new YouTube application will roll out to the masses. But it’s hoped the new features will arrive before the end of this month. As always, whenever we discover any more information, we will keep you updated.
In the meantime, those who are not part of the preview program can look forward to the app’s eventual release. The anticipation is building, and many Xbox 360 users are eager to experience the new YouTube app for themselves. The addition of this app is expected to enhance the overall entertainment value of the Xbox 360, making it an even more versatile and enjoyable platform for gaming and media consumption.
