What do iOS users think about the design of the app? I'm asking because from screenshots and a video, it looks the design is a close copy from the Android app. How do users accept common patterns like Actionbar or Slideout Menu on an iPhone?
There seems to be currently two entries of the same story on the main page ( http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4504246 ). In case someone here has kids and would be interested: I'm creating ToddlerTube, a YouTube iPad app for young kids. If you have a few minutes, would be awesome if you could help fill out this three question survey: http://goo.gl/nYIGD (Link to the other post: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=…
My baby cousins (I have around 6-7, and the number is quickly growing) are all huge fans of YouTube. Their parents teach them to search for appropriate things (Thomas the Train and Cars are popular searches) but I am sure they would love a version specifically for kids.
I'm not sure if I should fill out your form, or if you'd like me to ask the parents and see what their answers would be.
I often forget about comments I make on HN, so hit me on twitter @jonlim or my email in my profile.
Cheers!
I would have thought this would be much lower priority than a Google Maps native app for iOS, which also will be missing from iPhones when iOS 6 launches.
And about time, too. The old youtube app was the worst of the built in apps.

I doubt the teams overlap so priority isn't material to which is released first.

I think YouTube borrowed the menu-behind-the-content-when-it-slides-to-the-right from Facebook. Anyway, that's where I first saw it. Design-wise, it looks pretty much like the new mobile website.
The menu behind the content UI Pattern is actually one of the suggested UI patterns in the official Android style guide.
