The updated screen now offers a swipeable split between your basic music information and your &#8220;up next&#8221; screen. Starting with the former, the Now Playing screen still displays the album cover in the center with your media controls right under that.<\/p>\n<p>However, the toggles to switch between audio (the song) and its video are no longer present above the album cover. YouTube Music has also brought its row of elements (like, dislike, comments, add to playlist) down under the media controls. The app removed Lyrics from the bottom, placing them within this repositioned row of options.<\/p>\n<p>At the very bottom, users will notice a classic floating bar that mirrors what you&#8217;d see when using gestures on Android. Pulling up (swiping up) will display the songs YouTube Music plans to play next. The publication notes that users can pull this up part way, which will show four brief songs, or pull it up all the way to see a more extensive list.<\/p>\n<p>When fully open, this full list makes the Now Playing screen extremely compact, minimizing the cover at the top left with the title, artist, casting icon, and the three-dot menu beside it. This minimized state will also occur when opening your Lyrics and Related options, too.<\/p>\n<h2>YouTube Music brings people together<\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"slidecount\">Image 1 of 2<\/span><\/p>\n<figure class=\"caas-figure\">\n<div class=\"caas-img-container caas-img-loader\" style=\"height:600px;width:100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"caas-img caas-lazy has-preview has-width\" alt=\"YouTube Music's Now Playing view has been reworked slightly, offering a dual pane view with a repositioned bar of options, for liking, disliking, saving, lyrics, and more.\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/FrwUnGWKcceKMmt5lkfmjw--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTQyMDtoPTk0Nw--\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/android_central_347\/73843b7a752c4e239d21d4c9cdd58171\" height=\"600\" width=\"266\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"YouTube Music's Now Playing view has been reworked slightly, offering a dual pane view with a repositioned bar of options, for liking, disliking, saving, lyrics, and more.\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/FrwUnGWKcceKMmt5lkfmjw--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTQyMDtoPTk0Nw--\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/android_central_347\/73843b7a752c4e239d21d4c9cdd58171\" height=\"600\" width=\"266\" class=\"caas-img has-width\"\/><\/div>\n<p><figcaption class=\"caption-collapse\">YouTube Music&#8217;s Now Playing view has been reworked slightly, offering a dual pane view with a repositioned bar of options, for liking, disliking, saving, lyrics, and more.<\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p><span class=\"slidecount\">Image 2 of 2<\/span><\/p>\n<figure class=\"caas-figure\">\n<div class=\"caas-img-container caas-img-loader\" style=\"height:600px;width:100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"caas-img caas-lazy has-preview has-width\" alt=\"YouTube Music's Now Playing features a dual-pane system now, which lets users swipe up from the bottom to view a few \" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/7Qxg0CJrS_WUJATe7UDxQQ--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTQyMDtoPTk2Ng--\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/android_central_347\/d4da9ebe4d07ffdff4106ebf545396fa\" height=\"600\" width=\"261\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"YouTube Music's Now Playing features a dual-pane system now, which lets users swipe up from the bottom to view a few \" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/7Qxg0CJrS_WUJATe7UDxQQ--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTQyMDtoPTk2Ng--\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/android_central_347\/d4da9ebe4d07ffdff4106ebf545396fa\" height=\"600\" width=\"261\" class=\"caas-img has-width\"\/><\/div>\n<p><figcaption class=\"caption-collapse\">YouTube Music&#8217;s Now Playing features a dual-pane system now, which lets users swipe up from the bottom to view a few <\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>The publication reports that this update is slowly rolling out for mobile users (Android, iOS) today (Sep 12). It might take some time before it arrives, but it also seems that a download isn&#8217;t necessary. So, keep your eyes peeled for when it appears on your device.<\/p>\n<p>YouTube Music&#8217;s just been cruising along as of late, but it did celebrate <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/tech.yahoo.com\/streaming\/articles\/youtube-music-calls-celebration-notes-102600314.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:10 years of Fandom;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\">10 years of Fandom<\/a> in late August. The celebration was all about how YouTube Music has continued to bring listeners and their favorite artists together on one platform. Not only was it a time to party, but it was also a time for the platform to highlight an update for users. Soon, YouTube Music listeners will get the option to create &#8220;taste match playlists.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>These playlists will combine the musical tastes of you and another person to create a unique list of songs that represents you both. Moreover, YouTube Music states it&#8217;s preparing to introduce live performance and upcoming show alerts for artists. These alerts are said to appear when you&#8217;re engaging in their content on the platform.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source currently.att.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission.
