Apple has once again shown its unrelenting yoke. The apple company has blown up YouTube , Google's video platform , in the new version of the iOS 6 beta 4 operating system that was published yesterday. What a surprise were the advantageous users who downloaded this new edition for iPhone and iPad yesterday , when they saw that the YouTube player application for iOS 6 had disappeared from the map, or rather, from their desktop. The justification is strange: Google's license has expired . This information was in contrast to the fact that in the old versions of this operating system ( iOS 5For example) application of YouTube will remain active as long as the user in question will not be encouraged to upgrade to the next beta version of the system icons of Apple . All suspicions are focusing on Apple's dislike for Google , something that already happened when Google Maps disappeared from iOS earlier this year. As you can imagine, Apple has taken care of debunking any malicious hypotheses.
The Cupertino one has reported that the YouTube application will be made available to iOS customers through a separate application, on which Google would already be working . This program would have to be downloaded separately, so that the classic YouTube application that normally appeared by default on the home screen will no longer be present.
The truth is that at the beginning YouTube became a vital tool for iPhone users to be able to view content through their smartphones without impediments, since Apple devices did not support Adobe's Flash technology . At the time, the company pushed Google to encode the entire YouTube library to promote proper viewing of the videos. In this way, Apple took over the maintenance of the application, adding new features to share content on social networks, for example. Curiously, in recent times Apple has perpetrated a progressive abandonment of the application , going to the current extreme in an attempt to get further away from Google .
Thus, Apple stated: “Our licensing to include the YouTube application on iOS has ended. Customers can use YouTube in the Safari browser . Google is working on a new YouTube application that will be on the App Store . " Indeed, customers who want to continue watching videos on YouTube through their tablet or iPhone will have to access the Safari browser to connect to YouTube.comand start watching videos normally. Of course, many options will not be available, so we will have to wait for Google to offer the new application in the Apple application store to enjoy watching videos 100%. In any case, YouTube has not wanted to make statements about it. All it has done is indicate that the company is working with Apple to achieve the best possible experience for iOS users . We will be attentive to any changes to inform you.
