How to Control Volume on YouTube with Sliding Gestures on Android

If you have been viewing media on your Android device long enough, you probably know how most media apps have gesture controls. While the official YouTube app for Android has a few cool gestures, it does not have the feature to control volume on YouTube with sliding gestures.Lucky for you, all you need is an app developed by AppListo that brings volume gesture control to YouTube. Moreover, you can simultaneously adjust the brightness of the screen while viewing a video, thanks to Touch Controls for YouTube.

Step 1: Download the Touch Controls for YouTube App

Available for free to users on the Google Play Store, Touch Controls for YouTube App brings you the ability to control volume on YouTube with sliding gestures. The best part is that the app is not only absolutely free but also does not require the device to be rooted either.
