- YouTube is rolling out a new interface for its TV experience.
- Users can now shrink the video to see information like the video description, comments, and products on the side of the screen.
- This functionality will also come to YouTube TV, allowing users to see Views without disrupting the viewing experience.
When you watch YouTube on your TV, you’re probably less likely to do things like look at the comments. One of the reasons why may be the fact that pulling up the comments ends up blocking half of the video you’re watching. To fix that problem, YouTube is introducing a new design where interacting with videos won’t get in the way of your viewing experience.
In a blog post, YouTube announced that over the next few weeks, it will roll out a new interface for its TV app. That new interface will allow users to reduce the size of the video player, providing room on the side of the screen for information like the video description, comments, products, and more.
