Login With YouTube On iOS For Better Sync [iOS Tips]

YouTube Subscriptions

Who doesn’t like YouTube? Well, besides Vimeo. No one, that’s who. If you’re a true YouTube user, however, chances are you have your own account, channel and merchandising deal. For the rest of us with only an account to track, having it synced up to our iOS devices makes a lot of sense. Here’s how.

Open up the YouTube app on your iPhone or iPad. Tap on the “More” tab at the bottom of the screen, and you’ll see a list of stuff you can do, like look at the most recent videos, top rated videos, and your history. In addition, you can see your own uploaded videos, your subscriptions, and your playlists, right from YouTube and into your pocket. To enable this mug of awesomeness, simply tap the “Sign In” button at the top left, or tap the Subscriptions or Playlists items near the bottom of the list. You’ll be prompted for your YouTube credentials.

Enter them here, tap “Sign In” in the little dialog box, and you’ll have access to all those carefully crafted Machinima videos you’ve created, and your playlists of favorite music set to static picture slideshows wherever you are and have network access. Thanks, YouTube!
