Official Windows Phone 8 YouTube update gets a major update

The official Windows Phone 8 YouTube app has received a major update.

The new app features:

• Pin videos, playlists, channels, and even search queries to Start as Live Tiles for fast access.
• The tile flips to show either the latest video from your subscriptions or the most popular one.
• A filmstrip view of playlists.
• Background playback of video.
• You can share videos to popular social networks, and via email and text.
• Kids-corner enabled for parental control

The app can be found in Windows Phone Store here (may take some hours to go live).

Thanks Sunny for the tip.
