Tweaks to YouTube music have been surfacing online. One of them made its way to Wear OS generally, allowing users to stream with WiFi and LTE connection. Adding to the previous enhancements, the New settings layout for YouTube Music has started rolling out.
At the just-concluded I/O , the Big G, Google announced that it was going to update up to 20 first-party apps on large screens. While the company didn’t make known the list of the apps that are participating in the update, it has been hard trying to adapt these apps to a tablet-friendly setting.
Google has been testing redesigns for various apps among which the YouTube music is part. Before the just-released new settings layout for YouTube Music, Google rolled out a new YouTube Music home for tablets giving a more spacious layout. After which it started testing a new playlist UI.
According to sources, the new settings layout for Youtube Music is available on both Android and Chromebooks and it features a new two-column layout for the app alongside a pop-up feat for the Accounts Menu.
How the New settings layout for YouTube Music looks like
According to photos from xdadevelopers, the new YouTube Music layout shows a list of grouped settings on the left while the control for each group is seen on the right. Contrary to the old settings UI, the new setting gives more spacing by reducing the settings page to an extent.
The Big G might not employ the similar two-column setting on Android phones generally, but we are sure to expect a reduction in the settings page and the usage of similar grouping. The new playlist UI as mentioned earlier allows the album art cover to appear in the centre and then the playback control and album name are seen under it.
