What YouTube Music really needs is to look more YouTube-y
And that means much quicker access to saved playlists for the purported 80 million YouTube Music and Premium subscribers globally . Why? Because instead of the current top app bar with Home, Explore, and Library, those three sections will soon appear in a navigation drawer that can be collapsed .
Hovering over a playlist brings up a play button to start playback – once pressed, a tap opens the full playlist. You don’t have to use it if you don’t want to , but YouTube Music apparently preserves the last open/close state between visits. The app bar, meanwhile, will be home to a search field, which shows a “songs, albums, artists, and podcasts” hint, while Cast is still up in the top right.
Analysis: YouTube Music still struggles to find a USP, but a more YouTube-y overhaul is a very good move Although our initial tests in the UK didn't reflect the big update, it's easy to see that this redesign – the first big overhaul of YouTube Music’s web experience since a major relaunch in 2018 – makes it very similar to regular YouTube on your desktop.
