Google rolled out a pretty big update to the YouTube app for iOS on Monday that includes the new Material Design introduced with Android 5.0 Lollipop, along with some pretty nifty new editing tools.

“The redesigned YouTube app makes it easier to find what you love,” an update note explained. “Now your recommended videos, favorite channels, and subscriptions can be accessed by tapping each icon or swiping your screen. You can also create fun videos on the fly with new in-app editing tools.”
