It looks like YouTube’s Android app is all set to be all the more useful, as we have received word that the upcoming version of the app will feature a permanent Cast button in addition to new privacy icons, now how about that for progress in the right direction? This update would mean that a permanent Cast button will be added to the action bar, regardless of whether there is any Chromecast or Android TV in the vicinity. Should there be no use for the permanent Cast button, it will remain greyed out so that you do not have to select it by accident.
Apart from that, there will also be new icons which will appear whenever one decides to select the privacy level of content that one is adding to YouTube. There will be a sense of familiarity to it, since all same three choices (Public, Unlisted and Private) will still apply, although the icons could very well be considered to be easier to understand.
If you cannot wait, there is an APK signed by Google which be sideloaded, although it might be better to just play the patience card and let Google push this particular update through Google Play. You will need a device that runs on Android 4.0.3 or higher if you decide to choose the former route.
