Microsoft and Google seem to have found a new idea in the
recent skirmish over YouTube on Windows Phone 8. Both of them announced this
idea on Friday, May 24th 2013 that they are going to build a new
version of a native YouTube app which will be available for Windows Phone 8. The
YouTube application is planned to be available in the Windows Store in few
weeks later.
According to CNET, yesterday they received a statement
written by Google and Microsoft that revealed if Microsoft and YouTube were
working together to update the new YouTube application for Windows Phone to
enable compliance with YouTube’s API terms of Service, in which the ads sustainability
was included in the coming weeks of YouTube application launching. Microsoft
said if it would replace the existing YouTube application in Windows Phone
Store with the previous version during the time of preparing the new one.
Meanwhile, when the two notable companies are developing the
new application, Microsoft is going to replace its Microsoft-developed YouTube
application that was released on May 8 and it was updated yesterday with the
older version, not so functional or good HTML version of the YouTube
application for Windows Phone.
Microsoft has been claiming that Google has been keeping the
access to APIs which is needed to create a truly functional YouTube application
for Windows Phone. This is what Google’s public API for mobile application
vendors wanting to be used in building YouTube mobile applications.
On the other hand, Google, for its part, has revealed if
Google intended to be the one developing any native YouTube applications for
mobile platforms. However, the users of mobile platforms Google who did not
support this plan, preferred to use Google’s mobile YouTube site. For this
reason, Google also made it clear if it planned not to launch many applications
for Windows 8 or Windows Phone 8, mentioning low market acceptance for the
platforms as the reason.
We do not know what will happen next, but as Windows mobile
users, you might impresses with both ideas since you can choose to using a
native YouTube application or YouTube’s mobile site.
