The main highlight of this new beta version of the app listed for India is that it allows download and share of videos. Yes, you can download videos in two resolutions – Basic (144p) and Standard (360p). The motto behind the YouTube Go is to make video-streaming accessible in low connectivity areas where one gets 2G signals. With this new beta version for Android, users can download YouTube videos and can also save them on SD card. For sharing, users can use Bluetooth connectivity after running an online in-app security check of 15KB on the app. To keep the authenticity of every account, the app would ask for user’s mobile number for verification.

How Does It Work?

After you download and install the app on your Android phone, open it and search for any video. After performing the search, simply tap on the video and the app will ask you if you want to view it in basic or standard resolution. The basic resolution will, of course, suck less data. In the video window, you will also find a download option that will save the video in desired resolution (144p or 360p) on your device’s internal storage or SD card. You can also share the video via Bluetooth. For sharing purpose, the app will run a small internet security check and once it is done, you will be allowed to share the video.
