YouTube Go is a lightweight app, compared to the regular YouTube app that is especially useful for 2G and 3G networks. The app was developed by Google LLC and it aims to offer users a way to save some mobile data. In this article, we discuss some of the app's key features, as well as some additional information.

What are the key features of YouTube Go?

Data Saving: This is undoubtedly one of the most important features: the app allows you to control your mobile data consumption. This means that you can choose the quantity of MB to use for every video you want to watch.
Download Videos: Another great feature is that YouTube Go gives you the opportunity to download the videos you want. This is possible even if your Internet connection is very slow, or even absent, and you can also choose between downloading videos on your phone's internal memory and on your SD card.
Preview Videos: If you are not sure whether to download or watch a given video, then you should know that you can simply preview it - this will also save you some data.
Interface: To make the experience even more enjoyable, YouTube Go has an intuitive and user-friendly interface.

Is it safe?

It seems that the app has no history of security issues or abusive data collecting. However, it requires entering your phone number in order to associate the app with your Google account. As always, we recommend reading the official Privacy policy in order to take note of the way YouTube Go uses your data. In general, the app seems as safe as any other YouTube app.
