14 DAY TRIAL // Users in the Windows ecosystem certainly know that, right now, Google has no app on Windows 10 or Windows Phone/Windows 10 Mobile, aside from Search, which is basically useless.
And despite the fact that YouTube, Gmail, and Google Maps would certainly be very successful apps on Windows devices, Google still has no intention to invest in Microsoft’s modern platforms, leaving users on Windows 10 and Windows phones with no other option than to search for alternatives.
At this point, there are several worthy alternatives to YouTube on Windows 10, but it goes without saying that an official client would still be super compelling for everyone on the platform.
And designer Jei Dawnn is envisioning in his latest concept what an official YouTube app for Windows 10 would look like with support for both desktop and smartphones powered by the new OS.
Featuring Microsoft’s own design language
As you can see for yourselves by opening the photo gallery at the end of the article, the YouTube for Windows 10 Universal App concept follows Microsoft’s own design language requirements and comes in line with the other apps that are currently available on Windows 10.
It boasts a hamburger icon that hides all the other menu options and lets you access videos on YouTube, log in with your account, access your playlists, upload videos, save and share clips, and pretty much everything you can do on YouTube right now.
The design simply makes sense and is just another proof that Google can easily create a YouTube client for Windows 10. And if the search giant ever decides to do this, it should hire this guy to at least give them a few ideas on how exactly the app should look and feel on Windows 10.
Unfortunately, hell will freeze over when Google decides to launch apps on Windows 10 and Windows Phone, so users on these platforms can safely continue with their alternatives because nothing’s likely to change in the coming months.
