PinTube

Everybody loves YouTube, but there are still some really essential features that they haven’t yet implemented and from what it looks like they probably never will – being able to minimize the screen without losing the sound, for instance, or having to update your device's operating system to the latest version of Android so the app doesn’t become obsolete.

PinTube is an app that clones YouTube but adds these interesting features. You can use it with your own YouTube account credentials without missing out on any videos from your favorite channels, except that – and this is a big deal – when you minimize the screen you can still listen to the music or any other video. You no longer have to interrupt the video that’s playing if you want to IM someone or check something online or on your social networks. The app gives you the option to play the video in the background with either the visual part or just the audio. And the best part is that no matter how old your smartphone is, you can still the use the app.

This app is a must-have for people who enjoy YouTube but think it could improve on some things. PinTube adds those ‘some things’ that can make your experience more enjoyable.
