The app gives users the ability to watch videos simultaneously. While watching, you can see a visual timeline how far you are than your friends in the video.
You can also post comments at specific times, similar to the Facebook streaming feature.
YouTube is mostly trying to target younger audience with this app.
Uptime is preliminary in testing phase and will only be available very soon in the US and on iOS. The app appears to be dependent on YouTube searching for videos.
