YouTube Premium users, get ready for some exciting new updates! The popular video streaming platform has just announced the release of five brand new features that are sure to enhance your viewing experience.

Starting with a new skip feature for US Android users, you'll now be able to jump to the most popular part of the video with a simple double-tap. This feature will also be coming to iOS soon. Additionally, YouTube Shorts now supports picture-in-picture on Android devices, allowing you to multitask while watching your favorite short videos.

What's New and Experimental?

But that's not all – three more features labeled as experimental are being rolled out. Users now have the option to enable smart downloads for YouTube Shorts, ensuring you'll always have content to watch even when offline. Plus, US Android users can now interact with a conversational AI bot to ask questions about the videos they're watching. Lastly, a redesigned watch page offers a new layout for videos and other page elements.

These updates, along with the existing perks of YouTube Premium, make the monthly subscription of $14 / £12 / AU$17 even more worthwhile. As YouTube Premium's subscriber count exceeds 100 million, these new features demonstrate the platform's commitment to providing an improved and personalized user experience. Don't forget – with a YouTube Premium subscription, you also get access to YouTube Music Premium!
