YouTube Music to Rollout Custom Radio Playlist Feature Soon

YouTube Music is testing a new feature that allows users to create a custom radio list. According to the report the ‘Create a Radio’ feature, still in testing, is expected to roll out for users in a stable version soon. YouTube Music already allows users to customize their playlists based on genre, mood, familiarity and much more. With the testing of the new feature called ‘create a radio’, the music app will provide further options to listeners.

According to a report by 9to5Google, once the user selects a bunch of artists, the new feature allows three “Song selection” options: Familiar, Blend, and Discover. It further lets the user select a filter from options including Popular, Deep cuts, New releases, Pump-up, Chill, Upbeat, Downbeat, and Focus.

Once the user has made the choices, a YouTube Radio playlist is created that is named after all the artists and bands chosen by the user.

Meanwhile, YouTube Music is also conducting a poll or survey to ask users about the features of the app which are liked by them. The poll titled “what feature do you want the most on ad-supported” allows users to recommend their preferred features. The option include better recommendations, sleep timer, background play, and improvements to lyrics. However, the poll will be live for six days only.
