Technology is advancing at a rapid pace, and one of the latest features introduced by YouTube Music is set to revolutionize the way we search for songs. After Shazam’s success, YouTube is now rolling out a ‘humming’ music search feature on its platform. The new AI feature allows users to find songs by humming or singing, even without knowing the lyrics.
With the new feature, users will see a new waveform icon next to the microphone icon in the YouTube Music app. By tapping on this icon, the app will start listening to the user’s humming, whistling, singing, or recording of a song to identify it. This innovative technology is set to make song search faster and easier than ever before.
The ‘humming’ feature was first introduced by Shazam, a popular music identification app. However, YouTube’s new feature aims to surpass Shazam by providing faster song recognition. Users simply need to hum a tune, and YouTube Music will be able to find the original song, making it a convenient way to discover music.
The new feature has been spotted on the YouTube Music application for Android devices with version 7.02 or higher. While some users have reported not being able to access the feature even after updating the app, it is expected to be available to all users in the near future.
The integration of the ‘hum-to-search’ feature into YouTube Music is a significant development in the realm of music discovery. With the ability to identify songs by humming or singing, users can now easily find that tune stuck in their head without having to remember the lyrics. Whether you’re on the go or simply can’t recall the name of a song, YouTube’s new feature is set to be a game-changer in music search and discovery.
