Quoting Slashgear, YouTube also rolled out feature updates and system improvements, such as an expanded set of gesture-based navigation options and video pages.
This video page or chapter will make it easier for users to search for uploaded videos. Content creators can also apply a timestamp to their videos which allows users to quickly jump to a specific part of the video or rewind to re-watch an important part.
This feature is automatically activated as a timestamp and title row, based on the chapter information the creator added to the video description, starting at 0:00.
Lastly, the navigation has also been updated to include an expanded set of gesture controls. Currently, you can double-tap on the left or right side of the video to fast forward or rewind 10 seconds in the video. Now, you can swipe up to enter full screen mode and also swipe down to exit full screen.
