YouTube Music collaborative playlist

UPDATE: 2020/08/10 8:42pm PDT BY JULES WANG

Full rollout

YouTube has told us that collaborative playlists are rolling out globally to every user on Android and iOS.

Through our vast catalog of content, we have thousands of programmed playlists to match different genres, moods and moments. But, we think that creating and sharing a playlist can be just as fun as listening to one which is why were introducing playlist collaboration and assistive playlist features.

Weve started rolling out the collaborative playlist feature to some of our global YouTube Music users on Android mobile devices, with future plans to expand roll-out to all Android and iOS users. Collaborating on YouTube Music is simple!

• After creating a playlist, simply navigate to the Edit page where youll see the new Collaborate button.
• Once activated, you can share the playlist with any other YouTube Music user, allowing them to add content as well.

Collaborate on playlists for relaxing, working, or whatever else you need to get you through the day, as long as you're doing it with others.

We also know that sometimes you need a little inspiration when making a playlist. Starting today, were rolling out an assistive playlist feature for all global YouTube Music users on Android mobile devices, with future plans to expand to all users iOS devices.

• The new assistive playlist feature uses machine learning to provide users and their collaborators relevant song recommendations for their playlists.
• Recommendations are based on the existing songs in the playlist as well as personalized signals such as watch history and likes. Even if the playlist is empty, this feature can provide song recommendations simply based on the playlist name!

If you dont already have YouTube Music, download the YouTube Music app in the Play Store or App Store.

Happy listening, playlist creating and sharing!
