Introducing GroupTube v1.2 – More Languages + Improved UI
We are happy to announce Update 1.2, bringing more languages to GroupTube, and improving the ease of use. An improved user experience in groups, and availability in more languages will make GroupTube more accessible for everyone.
This update improves the layout and interface in many places, but most notably within groups. The YouTube search is now accessible in the top navigation bar, allowing users to search for new videos easier and quicker. There are now also basic recommendations in the search tab, to inspire users to watch together.
Tutorial sections have been added to multiple tabs in groups, to tell users about features available to them. The content of these tutorials are also available in all languages, except for the blog articles linked to.
Improvements
More Languages
GroupTube is now available in a set of languages, bringing GroupTube closer to our users worldwide. You can set the language either from within the settings menu or the top navigation bar.
The supported languages are English (EN), German (DE), Spanish (ES), French (FR), Hindi (HI), Italian (IT), Russian (RU).
The translations are currently mostly AI based, as we lack the ability to have manual translations for all languages. If you would like to contribute your knowledge of any language above, or suggest the addition of another language, please contact us at hello@group.tube.
User Interface
The most notable changes related to user interface are located within groups. The search bar is now accessible in the top navigation bar. And tutorials have been added to many tabs to help the user understand all features.
Also, the layout of many components has been changed to be simpler and therefore allow for better visibility, including group images in many places, and several buttons in menus.
This is just one of many updates to come, we will be working on continuously improving all parts of GroupTube to improve and optimize the experience of spending time and watching videos together with your friends.
