Means users can get new features even if OS updates are tardy.
Google has launched a new YouTube application for Android smartphones, making it available for download from its Android Market store.
Isn't YouTube already available for Android? Yes, but it's part of the core Android OS.
As Electronista points out, that means the native YouTube app only gets refreshed when users get an update for the whole Android OS.
With some carriers and handset makers taking their time to push out these updates, the downloadable app means users will get new features faster.
The application also lets users shoot videos and upload them without having to access the separate camera tools, and also has more recommendation features.
