YouTube has announced that it is rolling out new design elements and product features, including options to zoom in and out for videos, to enhance user experience on the platform. The Google-owned streaming platform will allow users to zoom in and out of a video while on their iOS or Android devices.

"Starting today, we are rolling out a new look and several features that offer a more modern and immersive viewing experience while also improving how users watch videos. But don't worry, the same YouTube you know and love is still at our core," the company said in a blogpost. Using dynamic colour sampling, the ambient mode introduces a subtle effect, so the app background colour adapts to match the video.
