The iPhone camera has continued to improve over time as new iPhone models are released. You can now take high-definition pictures and videos with your iPhone that look very impressive on large televisions and monitors.
Occasionally you might record a video on your iPhone that you would like to upload to YouTube.
However, if you have tried this before, you may have discovered that the uploaded video is not in HD, despite the fact that you recorded it that way.
This is because of a setting in the iPhone YouTube app that restricts the quality of your uploaded videos.
Our tutorial below will show you how to change this setting so that you can upload your iPhone videos to YouTube in high-definition.
