- I'm gonna share with you a list of apps
that all YouTubers should be using
and we're starting right now. (hip hop music)
What is going on, my name is Nick, welcome to another video.
If this is your first time here
and you wanna learn how to grow your channel,
make videos and all types of other YouTube related stuff,
start now by subscribing and clicking the bell
so you don't miss anything.
Okay, so I'm doing this every single month
to make sure that I can introduce you to new apps
and new software and things like that
that you should be using for your YouTube channel.
In this month, we are focusing 100% on apps.
Some of the apps on this list are free,
some of the apps are paid, get used to it kids,
that's how life works but all of them are awesome.
Okay, since you are a content creator,
the very first thing that we're gonna start with,
of course, is video editing apps.
This month we have a new one for Android,
but we are still holding strong on Videoleap
being the video editing app of choice for iPhones.
I personally use Videoleap on my iPhone
to help me put together YouTube stories
and Instagram stories.
I really should do Instagram more
but you know, I got a thing for YouTube.
But if you're on an iPhone,
Videoleaf is the one that you want to use.
Now, if you're on an Android,
since Videoleap is not available
for Android devices at this point in time,
the app that you should be using is called VLLO.
There might be a way to actually say VLLO,
but I'm not sure,
so we're just gonna go with the letters for now.
It's called VLLO, it's a new comer for Android devices,
at least it's come on my radar recently,
and it's getting tons of great feedback.
So if you are an Android device,
VLLO is definitely something you wanna check out
for your video editing solutions on your phone.
Next on the list is the Streamlabs mobile app
for live streaming and it's probably not what you think.
So I know a lot of people are stuck inside
at the time of this recording
and because of that a lot of people are also live streaming.
So I have two reasons that you should be using
the Streamlabs mobile app right now.
The very first is, if you are a content creator
with under 1,000 subscribers on your YouTube channel,
and under 4,000 hours of watch time,
YouTube doesn't let you stream from the YouTube app,
but you can stream to YouTube,
if you have under 1,000 subscribers
with the Streamlabs mobile app, you're welcome.
Now, another reason that you should be using
the Streamlabs mobile app is because a lot of people,
like I said before, are streaming right now.
I know a lot of people are watching
my live streaming content at the moment
to learn how to live stream.
If you're one of those people,
you are going to wanna check this out.
Inside of the Streamlabs mobile app,
you actually have a remote switcher,
what that means is, once you have the app open,
you can just tap into different options on the phone,
and it'll actually change it on your computer.
That's right, you heard me correctly,
if you have a stream going on your computer,
you can actually use your phone to control
what's happening on your computer
while you are live streaming,
it's awesome and it'll save you a few bucks
so you don't have to go out and spend money on a switcher.
Next on the list, is Time Buddy, not TubeBuddy, Time Buddy.
But real quick, you're a YouTuber,
you should be using TubeBuddy anyway,
there's a link to that in the description below,
so make sure that you check it out
'cause it's gonna help you with your YouTube channel.
But anyway, Time Buddy is great for collaborating
with other content creators in different time zones.
So if you're wanting to collaborate
in terms of just making content,
you're trying to find the right time to do it.
Or if you're one of the millions of people
in the world right now that are trying to find
the right times to connect with people
that you care about around the world,
Time Buddy will help you line up the timezone
so that you can know the perfect time
to get in touch with them,
you can know basically what the timezone is
without having to do the math and figure it all out.
And as a side note, as a YouTuber,
if you're not collaborating yet, you should be
and the reason for that is because it's extremely effective
in terms of just making YouTuber friends
and it's extremely effective
in terms of growing your YouTube channel.
So if you're not collaborating yet,
go ahead and start figuring out how to do that now,
I got videos on it that you could watch,
I'll actually link some in the description.
The next app on the list is called Productive.
You know those things that you need to do every day
that just for whatever reason, they slip your mind,
like for example, you gotta post on Twitter
or you gotta make a YouTube story or something like that.
Speaking of which,
hey, Q&A time, if you have a question
about what it is that you are doing on YouTube,
but anyway, productive will send you messages
throughout the day, little tiny alarms throughout the day
on a schedule so that you can always remember
to do those things that you need to do
in terms of posting social media, meditating
or anything else that you keep forgetting
to do every single day.
I also wanna say that Productive is not to be confused
with the regular scheduling app.
Here's what I recommend, if you're going to use Productive,
I recommend that you use it for small tasks.
So for example, if it's something,
hey, I gotta make sure I post a Twitter,
I gotta make sure I post a YouTube story
or a YouTube community post or something like that,
small tasks, it's perfect for things
that you can just go, "Oh, forgot about that."
And then you do it real quick
and then you get on with your life.
Next on the list and I've got some free stuff for you
for this one, next on the list is Adobe Lightroom.
You wanna make your thumbnails really stand out
and grab attention and just pop overall,
Lightroom will help you do it.
With Lightroom, you can literally take lame photos,
photos that when you look at them,
you're like, "Oh my gosh, this just looks horrible,
"the colors off, it just doesn't look that fantastic."
And turn it into something awesome
that you can use in your thumbnails.
And the best part about Lightroom
is that you can create presets.
So let's say that you typically take photos
in an environment that is typically the same all the time
or you have a certain look that you really like,
like a stylistic choice that you're making,
all you have to do is make a preset.
And then once you load a photo into your phone,
you tap on that preset and bam,
it applies all of the effects that you like to that photo.
Because I like to get my channel members free stuff,
I made an entire stack of presets for them.
That's actually what brought this whole thing
to my attention but I'm gonna give you some free ones
that you can use as well.
I'll put a link to where those are,
down in the description below.
Next on the list is the Google Sheets app.
Hold on, let me explain myself.
If you're trying to figure out what's working
and what's not working on your channel,
and you're digging around your analytics,
at the very top of the screen, there's a little icon
that lets you export all of the data
that you happen to be looking at.
Let's say that you have a job, stay safe out there folks
or let's say that you share a family computer
and because of that, you have a limited amount of time
on the computer and the other family members
take it for the rest of the times, so you don't have time
to really dig into what it is that you're doing,
export the data into a Google Sheet from your computer
or open it up on your phone
and then you can dig through stuff
and run your own formulas on everything if you want
while you're watching TV or walking around
or hanging out at the park or riding in a car
with your family or whatever happens to be going on.
Okay, now that I've lost about half of the audience
talking about analytics and Google Sheets, let's continue.
Since it's been a while since I mentioned it,
it's also important to let you know
that TubeBuddy has a mobile app.
It's not as full featured as the desktop version yet,
but you can still use it to plan your videos,
to answer comments and apply your canned responses
to those comments, check your video performance
and a bunch of other stuff that you do as a YouTuber.
So if you haven't installed the TubeBuddy mobile app yet,
you should, now is the time to do so.
Next on the list, is Thumbnail Maker,
next on the list is Thumbnail Maker and Channel Art.
Okay, so on this one, I'm not sure if the Android version
and the Apple version are made by the same company.
I know the Android version is just called Thumbnail Maker
but I've used the Thumbnail Maker
and Channel Art app on my phone, it's pretty solid.
And on the Android version,
the one is just called Thumbnail Maker,
that particular one has 13,000 positive reviews,
so I'm gonna take a guess
and say that, that one's probably solid as well.
