To try on the new layout, users will need to install a third party extension to Google Chrome. At the moment, Chrome is the only browser in which you can try out the new YouTube design.A few changes to the new interface have been listed on Google System like the new design will replace the solid control bar with a gradient and rather simplifies icons. A few tweaks have also been made to the menus. Animations have been altered and will now offer a more subtle visual flair. The new player will also feature bigger and bolder icons. Toggles for autoplay and annotations have been given a better look and drop-downs for speed and quality are replaced by mobile-inspired menus.[caption id="attachment_263077" align="aligncenter" width="640"] Image: Google System[/caption][caption id="attachment_263078" align="aligncenter" width="640"] Image: Google System[/caption]To activate the new player interface on your Google Chrome browser, follow these steps:1. Download the extension EditThisCookie from the Chrome web store.2.
