Google launches a new feature in YouTube Music, named “Samples,” which is set to revolutionize how users discover tunes.
As revealed in an official YouTube blog post, users can find this feature within a distinct “Samples” tab in the YouTube Music application on both Android and iOS, strategically positioned between the “Home” and “Explore” tabs.
The essence of the Samples feature is to offer users a continuous stream of short video clips, nudging them toward their next favorite track.
These recommendations, deriving from YouTube’s vast music video library, are tailored to individual listening preferences. They span a wide musical spectrum, from classic tunes to emerging hits.
When accessing the Samples tab, users are immediately presented with a brief segment of a track. This clip aims to give a flavor of the song’s vibe, genre, artist, and associated music video.
Each visit to the Samples tab or the YouTube Music app brings a fresh song suggestion.
For those smitten by a “sample,” they can effortlessly like it, add it to a playlist, share it, or play it directly. All these options are conveniently laid out vertically on the right.
Furthermore, there’s a feature to view YouTube Shorts made with that song by tapping the specific “Shorts” button, which redirects to the main YouTube app.
