About this app

The official YouTube Studio app is the best way for you to understand and connect with the people in your community using the device you always have with you. Use the app to:

- Get a quick overview of how your content and channel are performing with the new Channel Dashboard.
- Understand how your channel and different types of content are performing thanks to detailed Analytics. You can also see performance data for different types of content in the Analytics tab.
- Cultivate a deep relationship with your audience with the ability to sort and filter comments to find the most important conversations in your community.
- Make changes to the look and feel of your channel, and manage individual pieces of content by updating the information for individual videos, shorts, and livestreams.
- Start a business on YouTube by applying for the YouTube Partner Program so you can get access to monetization.

Ratings and reviews

Terribly slow! Especially with the content section or tab, it takes more than a minute to show up all the content. Sometimes I clear the cache on my phone and still doesn't work, I found out that rebooting my phone usually works but only for a while (a few hours), then the app starts slowing down again. I can't be restarting my phone 4 or 5 times a day just so one app can work properly...

The app in itself is not that bad as there are no crashes and the layout is simple, what's bad about it is the lack of functions and the fact that you can pretty much only change the thumbnail of your videos there (in the regular app you can change description, tags and the name already) and see your analytics, that's it. Would be nice to have the editing tool or the appeal process in the app but that'd be too easy and this is YouTube we're talking about, is never easy with them.

Uploading videos is so unnecessarily tedious. When trying to select the video I wish to upload, the app completely ignores the file names of the videos and only shows the video length. I have to open each and preview it to make sure it's the right one. Even after the upload, the title doesn't update to the name of the file like in the Studio website. Another feature I would recommend is to allow other apps (such as Google Files) to share videos to the YouTube studio app which would upload it.

What’s new

• A newly designed Dashboard that lets you see your most important performance data.
