Most people who answered a new survey say they do not like YouTube's redesigned app on Android phones. Android Authority, a site that covers Android, asked its readers what they think of the changes. The site's summary says the vast majority "hate" them.
What we know
The redesign changes how the YouTube app looks and works on Android phones. The survey asked readers for their opinion, and the early result is a clear thumbs down. The headline on the original story calls the redesign a massive miss.
Who it affects
Anyone who watches YouTube on an Android phone. Many people open the app every day, so even small layout changes can feel big. If you use YouTube on an Android phone, expect a different layout from the one you are used to.
What is not known yet
The full article was not available, so several details are unclear. These include how many people took the survey, exactly which parts of the redesign people dislike, and whether YouTube has responded. A reader survey also is not a scientific poll. It reflects the views of people who chose to answer.
What happens next
The thing to watch is whether YouTube changes course after the pushback. Companies sometimes adjust a design after strong complaints, but nothing in the material says YouTube plans to. For now, the redesign is what Android users will see.
The takeawayIf YouTube looks different on your Android phone, you are not alone, and it is worth watching whether the company responds to the complaints.
