One of the most-used video sites in the world, and a great many of the videos that we flock to on the platform are about the music that drives our lives. If you don't subscribe to a music streaming service, chances are you've checked out a cover by an up-and-coming artist, or watched a mind-blowing music video, if you haven't already.
A music app that brings the best music on the most popular video platform in the world together with traditional albums and songs from top labels has been created by the creators of YouTube. Many of the best music streaming services are out of step with the times.
It's easy to set it up since it's powered by YouTube.

The app will take a second to get to know your tastes before throwing you in, as it is pretty simple to set up.
This is the first thing. To sign in, tap.

The app does a great job of finding what you're looking for when you start a search. It's very easy to find a song. I only knew the English title of the song. Several English covers of the song were brought up when I searched for "70 cm square window."
There are a lot of results in different forms. You can find the top result, songs, videos, albums, community playlists, and artists that may have sung or covered the song by scrolling through results.

The microphone can be found in the top right corner of the page. It's possible to blurt out the lyrics to a song, and the app does a good job of finding what you need. The app came up with the result for "Savin' Me" after I murmured the lyrics to a nickelback song.
Since we can't remember the lyrics, it's a shame that the one search feature of YouTube Music doesn't include a melody. I suppose that's what the show is about.
There are some differences between Playback on YouTube Music and other services. The buttons to play, pause, skip, go back, shuffle, and repeat are the normal ones.
There are three tabs at the bottom. You can change the queue of songs before they play. To drag a song into a new spot, hold the two lines to the right of the track and then use your finger to move it into a new spot. If you want to remove a track from a queue, you can just move it to the left or right.

One area in which it falls short is its ability to listen to audio files on the go. It's technically possible to access your music files on YouTube Music, but the experience is not very good. It can take a long time to load your files and play songs.

Music may be one of the most important things that the assistant can do. Every time you ask for a song, you'll get a default music service in the assistant.

Getting used to Google's music service should be easy because of its search prowess, but it is a bit of an adjustment from traditional music services.
The app is constantly updating and evolving, even though it isn't as popular as other services. Make sure you download YouTube Music on your Wear OS watch for a connected experience if you want to try it out.
