3. Background mode

You can leave the video, or rather the sound from it, in the background while doing other things on your smartphone or tablet.

iOS

Open YouTube in Safari and play the video you want. Then exit the browser by pressing the Home button. Swipe up to open the control panel: information about the video you started watching should appear there. Then just click on the Play triangle - now the video will play in the background.

Android

Launch Chrome or Firefox and search for the video you want on YouTube. Go to the settings menu in the upper right corner and select "Open full version". Then start the video and exit the browser. The audio will remain in the background.

4. YouTube for kids

In order not to worry about what your child, younger brother or sister is watching, download the special YouTube Kids app. It will only have filtered videos that are safe for children.

This app is free, just like mainstream YouTube. Advertising in it is also only appropriate for children. Special algorithms are used to filter content, which are good in their field, but, as Google warns, no algorithm is perfect.

5. Save video

To download YouTube videos to your mobile device, you need special programs. Here's how to do it on Android and iOS.

6. Download video

To add your video to YouTube, click on the camera icon in the app. You can take a new video or choose from your device's album. In the editor, fill in the required information and add special effects. In the application, you can trim videos, add music and filters.
