When Apple removed the YouTube client from iOS 6.0, Google released a new YouTube for iOS app which only supported the 3.5 inch iPhone and iPod Touch displays. Users with an iPad or the new Apple iPhone 5 had to rely on watching videos on the YouTube website. Now Google has released an update for the YouTube client which supports all existing iOS devices including the iPhone 5 and the iPad.
You can download the update which is around 11.6 MB in size directly on your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch through the Apple App Store or by using the link which follows:
