so you can see the description of a video

Last October, we saw how the application of Youtube For Android devices, this already allowed us to see a video’s comments, description, and playlist while we played a video with the mobile horizontally, but first we had to display this information with the mobile vertically, then rotate it horizontally to activate full screen.

Well now we can see the description of a YouTube video made directly with the mobile vertically

, while a video is played in full screen, without having to perform the previous step of displaying the description with the mobile vertically, then turning the device to display the video horizontally or touching the full screen button.

So you can see the description of a horizontal video in full screen

If we play a full screen video with the mobile horizontally and want to see the description of the video, we have to tap video to activate playback controls. There we will see that the video title is now displayed in bold

ending with the arrow symbol ‘>’. Now the title of the video in a button. At tap the video title the new right side panel with its description will be activated.

In this side panel, in addition to displaying the description of the video, It also allows us to see the ‘likes’, the number of views and the date of the video.

. Of course, while we are viewing the description the video will stop displaying in full screen to be displayed in a smaller size on a split screen.

What it does not allow at the moment is to access video comments directly by viewing a video in full screen, but it is possible that Google adds a shortcut in its player in full screen so that you do not do not have to turn on the mobile to read the comments.
