If you’ve made use of YouTube recently, you know that it really wants you to sign up for a paid Premium subscription. Now, Google is providing another incentive by allowing premium users to try out experimental features still under development (via Android Central).

YouTube in the past has tested upcoming features like picture-in-picture with random users and beta app testers. It’s likely to keep its test running things that way, but now it seems to e saving the interesting Labs program toys for subscribers.
There are three new features available to premium users. One on iOS only gives you access to watch and seek within video directly from the home screen, another lets you search for videos using your voice the last helps you filter by topic in new languages: Spanish, French or Portuguese.
YouTube Premium only costs $11.99 per month for ad-free viewing, YouTube Music, background play, and other features. The Labs program probably isn’t enough to tempt anyone subscribing, but it could be a nice perk for loyal users.
