There are quite a few unofficial YouTube apps even on platforms like Android which do have a YouTube app. What is a minority for a big company like Google, is an opportunity for third-party developers. Since these users are in minority, Google probably never will launch a YouTube app for Windows.
The world has over 7 billion different kinds of people though and that some people would prefer to use a YouTube app on their desktops shouldn’t come as a surprise. It is much easier and more convenient to use Facebook, YouTube, Google, etc. On Desktops, one might argue that apps for web services don’t exactly make much sense. With these 4 YouTube apps for your Windows 10 desktop, you can enjoy video content without visiting.
There wasn’t an official YouTube app on Windows when Windows Mobile was around, and there isn’t one now. When it comes to Windows though, Google has been pretty reluctant to develop any apps for the platform. If YouTube search is counted as a search engine, it would be second only to Google itself. It’s the largest online video platform with the largest user base and nothing else is even close.
At least you can avoid Android by going all Apple but YouTube is pretty much unavoidable if you’re online. YouTube is one of those Google products that just keeps growing and growing like Android.
