Google Assistant on YouTube now allows users to find a song by humming a tune.
Google has introduced an innovative new feature on YouTube, allowing users to easily find songs by humming or singing a tune. This feature is now accessible via the YouTube Music app on Android phones. To utilize this groundbreaking function, users must navigate to the search bar within the app, find the waveform icon next to the microphone, and hold it to activate. The app will then use its algorithms to identify the song based on the melody hummed or sung.
Initially launched on platforms like Google Assistant and Soundhound, this feature serves as a personal music detective within one's mobile device. To initiate a search, users should hum or sing a part of the song for at least three seconds. YouTube Music will subsequently display the video containing the desired song, which could be an official music video, user-uploaded content, or a clip.
Access to this feature is currently limited to a select group of Android users, as Google rolls out the beta version of YouTube for testing purposes. The tech giant aims to assess the functionality and user reception before making it widely available to the public. If you haven't yet access to the hum-to-search feature, remain patient, as it may soon be available for everyone.
In other news, Google is also experimenting with a new feature on YouTube. This feature will consolidate all recent videos from a channel in a single location, helping viewers stay updated without having to check each channel individually. Similar to the hum-to-search feature, this new functionality is also being tested by a small number of users. Google plans to perfect the feature before releasing it to the general public.
Whether you're trying to identify a catchy melody or discover newly released content, keep in mind that your mobile device might be hiding some amazing tools to aid your quest.
