YouTube says goodbye to decade-old video player UI, but users hate the new design

Credit: Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority YouTube has begun rolling out a redesigned video player interface for its web platform. The new video UI features clearer pill-shaped controls, but users say they can no longer scroll on the volume bar to adjust volume. YouTube‘s first uploaded video just turned 20 years old, and the video platform has spent almost a decade with the current UI for the web video player. We’re all so used to the look and layout of the buttons that any change will disturb ten years’ worth of muscle memory. Google is marking the special occasion of twenty years of video uploads with a new UI for the web video player, but as expected, users aren’t taking kindly to the change. Several users are reporting that a new UI is appearing in some videos on YouTube’s website. Reddit user NoSpHiel got the new UI on their second account, but not on their primary account, and this is what it looks like:

That’s hot: Android will soon add an easy shortcut to the Pixel Thermometer app

Google is working on a lock screen shortcut for the Pixel Thermometer app, aiming to make temperature readings quicker on supported Pixel phones. Found in Android 16 Beta 4 code, this optional shortcut aims to reduce the steps currently needed to open the app via the launcher after unlocking. The Temperature shortcut isn’t live yet and could potentially roll out with the Pixel 10 or a later update. Of all the many amazing Pixel-only features, the Pixel Thermometer app is perhaps one of the most polarizing. For many users, it serves little to no purpose, but for some, it’s an invaluable tool. The app uses an infrared sensor available on select Pixel Pro phones to measure the temperature of objects and the human body. Simply open the app, select the mode, and point the sensor at the object or person whose temperature you want to measure. Pixel Thermometer offers simple, contactless temperature readings without needing a dedicated infrared thermometer. However, launching the app could be simpler. Currently, you have to unlock your phone before you can open the app from the launcher. If Google offered a shortcut to launch the Pixel Thermometer app from the lock screen, that would reduce the time needed to take a reading. Fortunately, Google is working on doing just that.
