    New YouTube Update: “Shorts”, “Live Streams”, and “Videos” have been separated into different tabs

    YouTube has introduced more changes to its website and mobile app, this time users will notice separate tabs for Shorts, Live Streams, and Videos on the Channel Page.

    This is in response to complaints from viewers that a user’s channel page was always scattered with vertical thumbnails that had short titles and “#shorts”, regular videos got crowded out, and scrolling became quite annoying.

    you heard correctly 📢 you can now explore different kinds of content on YouTube by using our new Videos, Shorts, and Live tabs!

    The new update will now make it easier for viewers to discover the kinds of content they’re most interested in when exploring a creator’s channel page.

    Viewers will start to see a “Shorts tab” that had only Shorts videos. “When you are watching Shorts in the Shorts feed and navigate to a creator’s channel from the feed, you will be directed right to this new tab to keep enjoying Shorts,” YouTube explains.

    The “Live tab” is where users can find all streams including any that are currently active, scheduled, or archived.

    Finally, the “Video tab” will specifically hold long-form content where viewers who are interested can go to.

    So, instead of the three different types of content thrown together in a single tab labeled “videos,” which show you a list of all the user’s uploads, there will now be separate tabs.

    YouTube says these changes will take effect from Thursday, and should make its way to more users “in the coming weeks.”

    YouTube gives users more reason to stay on the app with a brand new interface

    Though this makes sense, however it might make it less convenient for viewers who like to binge on everything a channel has to offer and like seeing it all at once.

    But I think it’s somewhat liberating for viewers like me. Many of the YouTubers I follow cut up their longer movies and upload them as shorts, making it a pain to move to the videos tab, look through a few thumbnails, and then remember that I have to go back to the top to put the filter on.

    I also dont have to waste time watching longer videos when I know there’s a Shorts tab where I can quickly get a glimpse or summary of the knowledge or information I’m seeking.

    YouTube now has a new pinch-to-zoom feature that allows you to zoom in and out of a video. When you pinch in on a video, the view stays magnified even when you release your finger, so you can see the rest of the video in crisp high definition.
