YouTube Gaming update hits iOS and Android as it expands to Canada, Australia, and more

Gaming is one of YouTube’s biggest categories, and Google is trying to fuel its growth by updating its app and site dedicated to the hobby.

YouTube Gaming is getting a few tweaks and improvements today on iOS, Android, and the web. Google has already added the capability to capture mobile gameplay to YouTube Gaming on Android as well as Sponsorships, which enables viewers to financially support their favorite creators, across all platforms. But now the company is adding a number of requested features, like a pop-out player for Android that gives audiences the opportunity to watch a video or livestream while using other apps.
