Like Google Search, YouTube is adding the ability to let users hum a bit of a song they remember to find it online.
This experimental feature was spotted on the YouTube Android app and asked for at least 3 seconds of recording(either humming or recording a tune of it) to find it in it’s vast library. Further, the platform also tested a virtual Shelf feature to organise all the video releases from a single creator in a day to keep your feed clean.
Finding Songs on YouTube by Humming
YouTube on Android is adding support for a unique feature – that lets users hum a part of a song to find it’s original or relevant content on the platform. A similar ability is available on Google Search on Android too, that can pinpoint songs with vague descriptions if you can hum adequately.
Well, now, YouTube lets you do the same, with at least a 3-second hum or a record of the purported song. Once identified, it’ll show you relevant videos and possibly the official content featuring that song. This feature is only available on the YouTube Android app, accessible via voice search.
Furthermore, YouTube is also testing a new Shelf feature to de-clutter your feed from a bunch of videos from a single creator. If a channel – to which you’re subscribed – has released several videos in a day, YouTube will organise them in a single window for better viewing.
Both these features are currently in limited testing, so there’s a possibility that you may not see them for now. Wait patiently until YouTube rolls them out more widely.
