You Can Now Upload Videos Directly to YouTube With iOS Share Sheet Integration

YouTube this week reintroduced support for the iOS Share Sheet, which means that it's now possible to share videos from the iPhone Photos app and other video apps directly to YouTube.

Using the YouTube Share Sheet integration automatically imports a video to YouTube, where it can be edited and then uploaded to YouTube Shorts. Sharing a video to YouTube via the Share Sheet was an option in a prior version of the YouTube app, but it was removed back in 2018. Until this week, there was no option to use native sharing to upload to YouTube.

YouTube updated its app to version 19.47.7 yesterday, but did not mention the new Share Sheet integration. You'll need the latest version of the app to use the feature.

I guess Google noticed the social media buzz around the IMG_0001 project ('https://walzr.com/IMG_0001/') and finally realized that their app lacks basic features.

Looks like YouTube finally remembered the Share Sheet existed—only took them five years to bring it back! Better late than never.

This is kind of awesome in a way. One video that played for me had only one single view in 11 years.
