Youtube Gaming, an app that connects you with the players, games and cultures of video games, features live streams and videos with chat. You can also view let's plays, speedruns, reviews, trailers and more from your favorite publishers and gamers. You will explore the games and watch videos of the most popular titles like Grand Theft Auto, Minecraft, Call of Duty, League of Legends, Garry's Mod and Battlefield 4. Enjoy thousands of videos on the Youtube Gaming app.
Up until this app's creation, you could only watch the streams from specific groups of gamers, but this feature now focuses the limelight on you. You can even broadcast your Android games on Youtube and share what your camera phone records. The mobile version was designed to capture the games live. You also have a radial menu where you can stop and restart the broadcasts. You can also activate and deactivate videos, sounds and ambient noises. You can choose to record the video locally or you can direct stream it.
Before you start, you will need a WiFi connection. The video broadcasts in 720p, and you will need unlimited data because this eats up a good amount of data. After that, it asks for your permission to access Google and whether you want to associate it with a Google+ account. Once you have finished, you select the app you want to broadcast and start transmitting. You will pick up a link to share with Twitter and other places. The viewers will see a window with a Youtube steam, and it will materialize when the channel starts streaming.
