YouTube Premium Lite Plan: If you're tired of the recurring ads while watching YouTube videos, there's good news for you. YouTube has launched its new subscription plan, Premium Lite, in India. This plan is currently in the pilot phase and will be rolled out nationwide in the coming weeks. The special feature is that this plan is priced at just ₹89 per month, which means you'll get an uninterrupted video experience for a very low cost.
The biggest advantage of YouTube Premium Lite is the ability to watch ad-free videos. This plan will work on all your devices, whether you're using a mobile phone, laptop, or smart TV. However, this plan does have some limitations. This plan doesn't offer an ad-free experience on YouTube Music. Additionally, ads may still appear on YouTube Shorts and during search/browsing. Premium features like offline downloads and background play are not included. This means that if your sole purpose is to watch videos without ads, this plan may be perfect for you.
Comparison with Standard Premium Plan
For users who want to listen to music without ads or download videos and watch them offline, the company's Standard Premium plan is still available. The personal plan is priced at ₹149 and the family plan is priced at ₹299. Additionally, an annual premium plan is available for ₹1490. This plan offers ad-free YouTube music, background play, and offline downloads.
YouTube will use AI to determine age
YouTube has also announced another important update. The company is now enhancing its Age Estimation Tool with AI. This technology will determine whether a user is a child or an adult based on account activity. The purpose of this move is to keep minors away from adult content.
Why is this plan special?
YouTube Premium Lite is a cheap and easy option for those who simply want to get rid of ads. It's much more affordable than the standard Premium plan, and the company is testing it in large markets like India.
