YouTube now makes it easy to continue watching mobile videos on your computer

Developers at Google continue to make YouTube more attractive to users by adding useful features. This time we are talking about the ability to easily return to watching mobile videos on a computer. Simply put, the user can stop the playback of any video on the smartphone and continue watching it from the same place already on the computer.

According to the available data, the mentioned function works when watching videos in the mobile versions of the YouTube app for Android and iOS devices. If the user has stopped playing any video on his mobile, then when he starts YouTube on his computer, in the lower left corner of the screen he will see a player window with the same video and a proposal to continue watching it. When you press the play button, playback will start in a compact window, which, if necessary, can be expanded to full screen. The new function will allow you to quickly jump to watching a video that was started playing, for example, on the road. The user just needs to click the “Continue Watching” button instead of opening the browsing history and looking for the desired video.

According to the source, the new function is currently available to a limited number of users. It is expected that for its mass distribution it may take several weeks, during which the ability to continue watching mobile videos on a computer will become available to all users of the YouTube service.
