![]() A toggle switch allows you to view the video as well, if you’re so inclined, but that means you can’t play it in the background and stash your phone in your pocket. So, if there’s a song that isn’t available in the standard catalogue, you can be pretty sure some enterprising fan will have uploaded it in video form. Its best trick by far is that it gives you the option to listen to audio-only versions of YouTube videos. However, unlike Spotify, Apple Music et al, YouTube Music has a way to fill these gaps. It’s not as if The Beatles are absent, but it’s worth pointing out that YouTube Music doesn’t yet appear to be a priority for bands and labels. ![]() The National’s recent live album is also missing, but shows as the most recent release on both aforementioned services. Without comparing every artist across platforms it’s impossible to say how they compare with total accuracy, but I did notice some strange gaps that you wouldn’t get with Spotify or Apple Music – namely Kaytranada’s album ‘99.9%’, Radiohead’s ‘In Rainbows’ and ‘Up’ by Ohbliv. YouTube Music doesn’t appear to publish a total number of songs available on its service, but for the most part you’ll struggle to trip it up with your searches. ![]() YouTube Music – Catalogue and sound quality It just lacks the editorial attention that you’d get from something like Apple Music. Those that do fit are badly formatted and difficult to read. You can restore it from your history, as is the case with any other tab, but it won’t remember the track you were playing or how far through an album you were.īand synopses and descriptions of albums are often too long for the space, with the text often cut off. This is good if you want to access it from a computer that isn’t yours, but can prove irritating if you accidentally close the tab in which it’s running. ![]() There’s no desktop app for YouTube Music, it just runs in a web browser. On mobile it’s also quite easy to accidentally hit the ‘like’ or ‘dislike’ buttons when you’re trying to skip tracks. It’s basic but clear, although an album I was downloading got interrupted halfway through and wouldn’t finish without me deleting it and starting again. Library is where you’ll find playlists you’ve made or subscribed to, songs you’ve ‘liked’ or saved offline, and artists and albums you’ve chosen to bookmark. The Hotlist is where you’ll find a selection of 20 songs that are ‘new, cool and trending’, so you can stay away from that if your idea of contemporary includes bands such as Bon Jovi and U2. Home shows personalised suggestions for albums, playlists and videos – some based on the time of day, others based on your listening history. The layout of YouTube Music is so similar to that of Spotify it’s practically a tribute act.Īt the bottom of the mobile app (or the top, if you’re on the website) there are icons for Home, Hotlist and Library.

Likewise, you can keep up with the latest hits and new releases. There are also lists based on different moods or activities, such as exercise or relaxation. If you don't know what to listen to, Vanced Music offers playlists filled with content based on your tastes. The app then uses that information to recommend songs according to your preferences. ![]() When you open Vanced Music for the first time, the app asks you to choose five or more artists you like. With it, you can access the YouTube music platform and enjoy all the songs you find there. Vanced Music is the modified YouTube Music app from the creators of YouTube Vanced. ![]()
