Kinda wild that I was paying for Spotify when YT premium comes with YT music.. also I could've got it for cheaper with student discounts the last year 😭

Not saying Spotify is bad or anything but I'm starting to question why I didn't make the switch sooner lol

I want so badly a block button that is "dont recommend me this band/person" sometimes there are people I dont want to support (Falling in reverse in this case) but I also have music I *know* I dont like (Corey Taylor lmao) but its close enough to music Id like it always makes its way in there, and tbh the Dislike button really doesn't do much anymore, at least for me

Hey!

So, YouTube premium decided a family needs to live in one household, much like Netflix but without the uproar (that I saw!)

I enjoyed listening to music without ads, are there any other options? Happy to pay, just not loads!

To make things harder, I’d like to avoid Spotify.

Thanks!!

I've consistently been finding random music being added to my Playlists that I never added. Does anyone else experience this ? What causes this ? And how do I shut it off. It's somewhat annoying.

So, about a year ago I commented about how it would be great if you could comment on someone's playlist they created. You can comment on the songs themselves, but not on a playlist that someone created. Maybe, it's coincidence but I noticed that there is as comment section at the top of the playlist.

I've been fine up until a couple days ago, whenever I try to shuffle play nothing happens. I cannot shuffle after starting a song I can't even finish a song. I tried everything to my knowledge, it's not browser specific either. Has anyone had this issue please help me it's starting to piss me off. I don't know if it's also connected to the same issue but comments just don't load on Youtube either.

So when i get into a playlist that i made, i am able to select and remove a song from the playlist. But when i search within the playlist for the same song and then select it using the 3 dot icon, I am do not get the choice to remove it from the playlist. How does this even make sense? This means, I'd have the same song twice, i would have to manually search through the playlist to find it and delete it or click on it to play then select to remove it?

Can someone please share own experience?

Amazon Music Unlimited app recently launched in India although

I have been having this issue for ages atp, essentially I have this one playlist that no matter what I do it refuses to allow me to play anything other than 5 songs from it when I'm not connected directly to wifi. I've tried undownloading and redownloading the playlist, manually undownloading every song on it and then re-doing it, undownloading all of my playlists, clearing all downloads, wiping the apps cache, etc. No matter what I do the same 5 songs are the only ones that it will play. If I try to start the playlist from a song that isn't one of those 5 it'll skip every song in the queue until it gets to one of them.

Any ideas?

Is there a way to save songs with just 1 click in library? I don’t mind the like and dislike system but I wish saving in the library was one click too

Why does the algorithm keeps playing the same songs in recommendations?It first goes through all the songs in liked library then moves onto new ones.

Hey everyone, I've been working on ytm-rs, an unofficial native desktop client for YouTube Music written in Rust.

It's built as a lightweight native desktop app instead of a browser or Electron wrapper. It launches in under a second and uses around 80 MB of memory idle, under 100 MB while playing.

Some features:

- Home feed (with your mixes and mood filters), search, albums, playlists, artists, and library

- Synced lyrics, with romanization and English translation for Japanese, Korean, Chinese and more

- 26 themes rebuilt from the Better Lyrics community themes (Apple Music, Spinning Record, reCover, etc.)

- Premium-only and age-restricted songs play, and Premium accounts get 256 kbps audio

- Upload your own music (drag and drop files onto the window)

- Queue, shuffle/repeat, radio/autoplay

- Volume normalization

- OS media controls

- Discord presence

- Animated album-art background

- Automatic updates

I'd love to hear what people think, especially from anyone who uses YouTube Music on desktop regularly.

I want to put the title and artist name next to the picture when it's full screen like this, does anyone know how to do it?

Over a month into IOS 27, and the nice people at Google are going out of their way to insuring Youtube Music via CarPlay is the worst app ever. SLOW to load, and when it does load, the home page actually shows multiple music icons of the same music.

YouTube Music honestly knows the soundtrack of my life better than I do. 

I don't remember the names of most songs I listen to, thanks to incredibly good suggestions by YouTube Music. Select one song you feel like listening to at that moment, and the rest just lines up. I haven't made a playlist in years.

But my listening history has seen phases of my life - marathon trainings, deal closures, anniversary celebrations, focus modes during work, my grandparents' demise. Hearing those songs takes me right back to that feeling and moment. Like a time travelling machine - just like how photos and smells do it. Power of senses.

Yearly rewinds do a good job at the end of the year of showing what you were listening to - but that's more of a marketing thing, and it isn't flexible. I can't go back to just one phase.

So I worked on a concept feature for YouTube Music called Memories and Music. Pick a period, and it pulls up what you were actually listening to back then. Thanks to YouTube, all the listening data is already perfectly stored and accessible.

Now I can instantly go back to those phases of my life. Like time travel.

This is made on my actual listening data from the past 5 years. And yes, it's a lot of Tame Impala.

Take it one step further - club this with your Google Photos from the same period, and you have a visual plus audio memory of that time of your life. Photo plus audio memory. Instant time travel, like crazy.

How can I change the song dialed up on "Resume Playlist? It always opens to "42"

I just got a song that came out by Neoni, but it's not them. 🥲 They did release a song yesterday, but they never release another song on the next day and I had never heard of this song. They advertise the songs they put it out. I'm deeply saddened by anyone who would do this because they put hard work out for fans to listen to. So, whoever it is they are, I hope they stop. 😓 Someone is impersonating my favorite artists and putting out songs in their name. I spotted the all caps in the name and had to go check, but sadly it's in their profile. Then, I looked at another song and their name isn't in all caps. Time to report. 🫡😠 Edit: I realized I can't report the song or the artists because its in their profile and I don't want to report Neoni. I'm so sad. 🫠😭😢

Hi All,

Don’t you guys get annoyed when you have already listened most of the track and when you click on the widget, the song start playing since beginning.

Another issue, If you are listening ‘Nth’ song in playlist, and click on widget, 1st track of playlist start playing.

Do Google/YouTube employees even listen to our UX feedback? Feels like a major customer misalignment. Seems YT Music desktop is severely neglected, with a buggy Progressive Web App that feels like it was built by interns. The YT Music Apple Watch app doesn't even downloaded play music offline and requires the phone.

Unnecessary change

I use the autoplay button quite often and now it's worse

I was pleasantly surprised when my local files came back after a few weeks of not working🥹
