Now we’ve got something a little bit more 21st Century in our hands. Searching for videos using the 360’s controller always felt a bit more like you were entering your initials on the Space Invaders high score screen than anything else. The YouTube experience on Xbox 360 has always been hobbled by that awful hunt and peck typing system. Once you’ve inputted a nine-digit code on your phone, you’ll be able to search for videos on your phone, tap the ‘add to TV queue’ option and your video selection will be magically pinged to your TV screen. In the new YouTube app, in the settings there’s an option to pair your phone or tablet. Microsoft has rolled out an update for the Xbox 360 which sees the YouTube app being vastly improved with a feature which lets you queue up video playlists from your phone.
