Update the YouTube app for Android 5.0 and 5.1
To continue getting the best YouTube experience, upgrade to the most up-to-date version of the app. With app version 12.13, you’ll need to accept new app permissions before updating on Android OS versions 5.0 and 5.1. You'll see a notification asking you to accept these new permissions. Allowing YouTube to have these permissions gives you new features and improves your viewing experience.
Update the YouTube app
- Open the Google Play Store app
.
- Tap Menu
My apps & games.
- Apps with an update available are labeled "Update."
- Tap Update All to update all apps. For individual apps, find the specific app you want to update and tap Update.
Why does YouTube need these permissions?
The new permissions enable new features which improve your viewing and creating experience. See examples below:
| Permission | Improvement from Permissions |
|---|---|
| Record audio | Enables video recording and live streaming within the app. |
| Precise location | Allows location information to be attached to video uploads and live streams. Also allows for improved ads and recommendations. Your precise location is never shared with advertisers. |
| Read contacts | Helps find people for you to share videos with. |
| Receive SMS | Simplifies additional verification of your phone number that you need to access some advanced features, including live streaming, long uploads, and sharing. |
| Send SMS | Enables sending an invitation to share via SMS. |
| Read phone number | Allows YouTube to optimize the experience for some mobile data plans which include special rates for video. |
| System alert window | Allows video live streaming from other apps, such as mobile games. |
Why do I need to update the app?
For some versions of Android (versions 5.0 and 5.1) the YouTube app includes new permissions to enable new features and improvements. Google Play Store requires that these permissions are accepted before updating the app. If the new permissions are not accepted, the upgrade will not proceed and the app will not be updated beyond its current version. 上一篇：
