Comment on Dear YouTube; About that Chapter Skipping Feature

  Just to clarify, you use the one tap to bring up the controls then double tap the opposite direction to skip chapters? If so, then I stand corrected, at least in certitude.

  In either case do you see clicking three times better than the other option to simply two-finger tap the direction you want to chapter skip? That to me is more efficient and doesn’t have an unintuitive, user experience overlap with a very commonly used feature, skipping time increments.

    On the phone, ok, I agree. I mainly watch YouTube on the computer. I misunderstood your upset.

      I see. I probably should have been more clear, but thank you for the follow up. I’m genuinely curious if there will be people that do see this as a good feature, and if so, why? Not for debate, but as a matter of interest.

        It’s all good; I was reading before fully awake, so that’s on me, too.

    I think either a confirmation dialogue or at the very least a long tap would be a fantastic change to make. Most of the damn time if I’m changing a whole chapter it’s because I screwed up on a 30 second fast forward and got to do the wrong chapter anyway
