YouTube Music’s New Feature Can Identify Songs From Humming

As a dedicated YouTube Music user, I can’t help but feel excited about the latest feature that has been rolled out – hum-to-search! This game-changing innovation allows me to locate a song simply by humming it, making my music experience even more convenient and efficient.


According to Engadget’s report, YouTube has discreetly introduced its new “hum-to-search” function. With this feature, users can discover a song by humming it into the app. Initially available in beta for Android users back in May, it has now been released to a limited number of subscribers on both iOS and Android platforms.

Users can now interact with YouTube Music in a fresh way by visiting the search bar. They’ll notice a novel waveform icon there. A simple tap activates the app, enabling it to listen and identify whatever users hum, sing, or even whistle. This feature is said to possess the remarkable ability to discern live performances on an instrument as well.

As a gamer, when I hum a tune into YouTube, it tries to figure out what song I’m humming and pulls up the results with details like the artist name, album art, and release year. Hum-to-search is known for accessing YouTube’s vast music library of over 100 million tracks. However, I’ve heard some gamers say that during the beta testing, it worked great for popular tunes but struggled with more obscure songs, which were sometimes misidentified.

As a gamer and YouTube Music subscriber, if you’re eager to hum into your phone, I’ve got some news for you. Unfortunately, this feature isn’t available to everyone yet. You’ll need to make sure your subscription is up-to-date if you want to give it a try. But here’s the catch – it’s currently being rolled out only to a select group of subscribers. So keep an eye on your app updates and hopefully, you’ll be one of the lucky ones soon!
