Google will soon allow Android users in India to download YouTube videos and watch them offline. The announcement was made alongside it's first Android One smartphones, a new initiative designed to give users a premium, Google-driven experience at cheaper price-points.
YouTube videos will be available offline in India, meaning that people ca store videos in the YouTube app when they are o WiFi and watch them later - a great benefit for times with a slow connection or re-watching videos without using up the data plan.
The move is significant and should make YouTube a more attractive service in India. Not everyone has contract plans with large or unlimited data caps, and so streaming videos simply isn't an option without incurring charges. With offline playback, Android users can store the videos from their favorite channels so they can be viewed at any time, regardless of their internet connection.
