Samples were taken by purposive random sampling, there were 91 economics students who agreed to use YouTube videos for learning English and installed English application and routinely used it for one semester. The results showed that the regression equation was Y = 65.568+ 0.304 X1 + 0.425 X2+ e. It means that: 1) partially, using YouTube videos gave influence on students’ vocabularies for 5.19%, 2) partially, using mobile learning through English learning application gave influence on students’ vocabularies for 9.55%, 3) and simultaneously, using YouTube videos and mobile learning through English learning application gave influence up to 21.1%. Some students said that it was easier for them to study via mobile app on their mobile devices because they bring mobile devices everywhere and they were not boring which had many features and levels.
