YouTube has been removed from iPad IOS 6: Best Alternative

Seems like Google is in a hates Apple these days. Apple has (voluntarily or involuntarily) removed the auto-install of the YouTube application. In addition the YouTube application is not there for iPad. The YouTube application is only available for iPhone.

Fortunately, iOS6 has a good developer base.  

There are two alternatives:
1. You can download the iPhone version of the YouTube app which is still in the store. The problem here is the app works in the iPhone small screen mode. I wasn't particularly impressed with this.

2. You can download the alternative iPad application called Jasmine which actually allows you to play YouTube music in the background as well. Click here

Jasmine is great because I always wanted to put a piece of music and use my iPad / iPhone for other things, but this was never possible in the regular YouTube application. It is also not possible on the Android. Therefore, with Jasmine you get a better application then the Android version on your beautiful iPad! :)

I will admit, there was one time it crashed. But what program doesn't crash once in a while these days?

We also liked the interface a lot. I was surprised how much better the interface was than the YouTube interface.
