— What’s up Insiders?

We’re keeping it fresh, keeping it real.

Let’s get in to this weeks updates.

First up, let’s discuss
the launch of clips.

Now, last year, we introduced clips

to the creator community as an experiment.

If you’re unfamiliar with them?

We’ll leave more information
in the description below.

Since then, many of you
have expressed an interest

in the feature, and I’ve asked when clips

would become more broadly
available to creators.

We’re excited to announce

that we’ve been expanding
this feature to more channels

over the past few weeks and
plan to have this rolled out

to all creators by the end of next week.

Let us know what you think of
this feature once you get it,

and leave us your questions below.

Up next, let’s talk about the
launch of post image polls.

Being able to share images to polls

has been a top requested
feature from creators.

And today we’re excited to
announce that post image polls

are available on Android devices.

Up until now, creators have only been able

to share text polls on the community tab.

Now creators on Android
with community tab access,

so those with 500 or more subscribers,

will be able to create image polls

and viewers across Android,
iOS and desktop devices

will be able to see
and interact with them.

Creators will be able to share

up to four images per poll post.

And we’d like to call out
that, during this experiment,

we heard a lot of great
feedback from creators,

and we look forward to
hearing more feedback

from the creator community

as we roll this out to more devices.

Let us know if you have any questions

in the comments below.

Up next, let’s talk
places mentions update.

Last year, we started an experiment

showing Google Maps
information relating to cafes

and restaurants that were
mentioned in a video to viewers

in a new location section
on the mobile watch page.

We’ve expanded this to videos relating

to travel and entertainment,

and are working on expanding
it to more types of videos.

This helps viewers save time
investigating themselves

if they’re interested to find out more.

However, we’re aware that not all creators

want to show this information.

Therefore, we’re launching
an opt out option

as an experiment.

For every video, creators
in the experiment

will have the option to unselect

the allow automatic places
option in the upload flow

or when editing a video later

so the places won’t automatically be tied.

Let us know what you
think about this feature

in the comments below.

And that’s about it for
this week’s news flash

from the creators of
YouTube to YouTube creators,

have a great week.

And for those new to the channel,

make sure that you like and subscribe.

We’ll see you next week.
