How to Use YouTube from Safari on iPhone and iPad

The official YouTube app for iPhone and iPad is great, thanks to their latest updates has become a truly useful and productive tool. However, on many occasions we find it convenient to watch YouTube videos on Safari.

Unfortunately, when trying to access YouTube from Safari (either on an iPhone or an iPad)a popup appears asking if you want to open content from the application of IOS.

In this tutorial we will explain in detail how to use YouTube from Safari , both the desktop version and the mobile version.

How to access YouTube from Safari on iOS?

1. Click on a link to YouTube.

2. When the window appears asking if you want to open the video in the YouTube app, press "Cancel".

3. Enter the same link again and press "Go".

4. The web page will open directly in Safari.

From now on , when we introduce a YouTube link for the second time, the mobile version will open. You can make sure of it after seeing the "m" in the beginning in the URL. If we take this into account, it is possible to go directly to the mobile version without pressing "Cancel" on the question "Open in YouTube?". To do this, write "http://m.youtube.com".

And if, for whatever reason, want to use the desktop version of YouTube in Safari, you can just keep your finger down on the button to update the web browser of Apple and press on the "Desktop version" option as you we indicated in the guide hidden tricks Safari few days ago. If the pop -up window appears, press cancel and try again.

You can access YouTube from other apps

Note that you can enter the mobile version and the desktop version of YouTube from other applications. In fact, if you use Google Chrome you can access the web without having to answer the question "Open in YouTube?".

The same applies to the new Firefox and Opera Mini. Additionally, you can use other apps like YouPlayer or Player for YouTube. We leave their download links below:
