jeff from Sami Guru back here again
0:01
today and today we're taking a look at a
0:04
brand new feature that Samsung has added
0:06
to the now bar in 1 UI7 yes as a lot of
0:10
you guys are starting to receive the
0:11
stable update this week samsung has
0:13
started rolling out YouTube support for
0:16
the now bar and live notifications which
0:18
means you'll be able to control your
0:20
YouTube play pause etc seek track and
0:24
all that good stuff from the now bar and
0:26
live notifications now the
0:28
implementation's a little bit different
0:29
depending on the device that you're
0:31
using it on i have here the S24 Ultra
0:33
which is still on 1 UI7 beta 6 right now
0:36
because we haven't received the stable
0:37
update in the US just yet my ZFold
0:40
special edition which is on 1 UI7 stable
0:43
because this is a Korean phone it got it
0:45
on April 7th and my Galaxy S25 Ultra
0:48
which of course is running the March
0:49
update hasn't received the April update
0:51
just yet this one does not have live
0:54
notifications yet for media so we'll
0:56

1:35
if you guys are interested so let's just
1:37
go in here really quickly and I'll show
1:39
you these three different versions
1:41
there's one big difference on the now
1:43
bar so if we go into lock screen and
1:45
AODD on each you'll notice that on the
1:50
Galaxy S25 Ultra you do not have media
1:55
player as one of the options see media
1:58
player here and here but you don't have
2:00
that on the S25 Ultra so because of that
2:03
the way this YouTube uh live
2:06
notification/nowbar looks is a little
2:08
different depending on the phone now I
2:10
received this starting on the ZFold SE
2:13
when I got the stable 1 UI7 update on
2:15
Monday then the S25 Ultra I received a
2:17
Google Play system update today which
2:20
was 12 megabytes and then the YouTube
2:22
live notification started working so let
2:24
me show you guys if I go in here let me
2:26
just
2:28
uh there let's see let's go back you'll
2:33
notice it's not up there in the live
2:34
notifications however if we go to the
2:37
lock screen here you've got your YouTube
2:40
and you can expand it your media player
2:43
right there now what you'll notice right
2:44
now is on the S25 Ultra the media player
2:48
uh still lives here the media output
2:50
lives in the quick settings so that's on
2:53
the S25 Ultra now if I go into the ZFold
2:57
SE it's a little bit different now
3:00
you'll notice not only do I get the
3:02
picture and picture popup for YouTube I
3:04
also get my live notification for
3:07
YouTube and over here I've got my
3:10
playback pause everything those live
3:12
controls are there and of course I also
3:14
have that on the lock screen which I can
3:16
show you guys here if I move that phone
3:17
out of the way you still have it on the
3:19
lock screen right there just like you do
3:22
on the S25 Ultra and of course the
3:24
pop-up looks very similar both of these
3:28
of course there's a smaller screen on
3:30
the ZFold SE so a little bit different
3:32
look and that's mainly because the live
3:35
notifications don't exist yet on the
3:37
Galaxy S25 Ultra you can't get those
3:40
live notifications for the media player
3:43
because it's not an option so you don't
3:44
get the live notification chip now on
3:47
the S24 Ultra on the beta it runs
3:49
exactly the same way as it does over
3:51
here on the ZFold SE if we go some
3:55
people making some crazy comments you
3:57
know you got to fire back you got to
3:58
fire back when people make some crazy
3:59
comments on your channel if we go over
4:01
here play this video you'll see you've
4:03
got live notification up here now one
4:06
thing I will notice is I will note is
4:08
that if you notice here I do not have
4:10
the YouTube picture and picture so I had
4:12
YouTube picture and picture when I close
4:14
it over here I've noticed this is kind
4:16
of hit or miss the picture and picture
4:18
doesn't always work with the live
4:20
notification chip and yes you do have
4:22
the controls there and of course they're
4:24
also on the lock screen as well as you
4:26
would expect we can show this one off on
4:29
the lock screen there as well but the
4:31
picturein picture does not always seem
4:33
to work on the ZFold SE and the S24
4:36
Ultra this is great news obviously that
4:38
we have YouTube controls and the live
4:40
notifications it should come to the S25
4:43
series in the same form that is over
4:45
here namely the live notification chip
4:47
once it gets media player uh capability
4:50
on the S25 series and I imagine that
4:52
also means if you look over here you
4:54
have duplicated this here the quick
4:56
settings you have the controls and then
4:58
you also have them inside the
5:00
notification shade so you should have
5:01
duplicated controls here and here once
5:04
it comes to the S25 series now this does
5:08
not work with any other streaming app so
5:10
far that I can tell i tried Netflix
5:12
Disney Plus Hulu Amazon Prime Video that
5:15
seems to be because of DRM copyright
5:17
concerns with those particular pieces of
5:19
content so I don't know if it's going to
5:21
come to other media playing apps but
5:23
obviously YouTube is a really big one
5:25
and an important one and Samsung and
5:27
Google of course have this really deep
5:29
integration and partnership so that
5:31
makes a lot of sense the other thing
5:33
that I noticed on my ZFold SE which is
5:36
actually how I originally noticed this
5:38
is if you take a look last night I my
5:40
son was watching his uh show when he
5:42
goes to sleep he watches a movie every
5:44
night my four-year-old The Snail and the
5:46
Whale and I noticed my TV is connected
5:48
although I wasn't actively casting it's
5:50
connected to my Samsung account and my
5:52
YouTube account it popped up up here in
5:54
my live notifications on the ZFold SE
5:56
allowing me to control the other device
5:58
you see how it says YouTube other device
6:01
i was able to pause play seek through
6:03
the video even though I left the house
6:06
after he fell asleep I let it keep
6:08
playing just to test i ran to the store
6:09
for a few minutes i was still able to
6:11
see kind of where it was playing and
6:13
pause and play it from my phone and uh
6:16
my wife was at home with the TV and she
6:18
said that the controls were working so I
6:20
find that very interesting kind of some
6:22
duplication of functionality that Google
6:24
already has if you're a YouTube Premium
6:26
subscriber where you can control those
6:28
things across you know sync them across
6:29
your devices anyway very excited about
6:32
this obviously bringing YouTube live
6:34
notifications and to the now bar is a
6:36
big deal hope you guys enjoyed this make
