YouTube Music is an application that is gaining presence in Spain. It is the application that replaces Google Play Music, in fact we can already move our music library from one application to another without any problem. In addition, it is an application that is improving at a great rate, incorporating many new functions, to make it a very complete app.

More and more users are installing YouTube Music on their Android phones, many of you among them. Therefore, we leave you with a series of tricks with which you will be able to make better use of the application. Since it is an application that offers many options and has little-known functions.

Search for songs using part of their lyrics

YouTube Music search lyrics

A situation that we all know: we know part of the lyrics of a song, but not the name or artist of it. YouTube Music will allow us to find that song in a simple way, since we can enter part of the lyrics of the song in the search engine and thus find that song we were looking for. This will allow us to find those songs that we were looking for, but for which we simply lacked data.

Also, this is a function that other applications like Spotify do not have available yet, so it can be an advantage to take into account so that many opt for this application.

Download your favorite music from YouTube Music

YouTube Music, like other music streaming apps, lets you download your music to your phone. Over time, you may accumulate many songs on your account, which makes downloading them a more tedious process. Luckily, the app has an interesting function, which is Smart Downloads. Thanks to this function, your favorite music will be downloaded automatically to your phone. Although it is only available if you have a Premium account.

Those songs that you have bookmarked or listened to a lot they will be downloaded automatically. This will only be done when you have enough battery and are connected to a WiFi network.

Manage recommendations

YouTube Music customize recommendations

YouTube Music has a number of recommendations, which are updated over time, so that you will be able to discover new music on your account. The application has a number of methods to recommend new music to you. It is based on the artists you have liked, as well as the songs that you listen to frequently. They even have recommendations based on your location. So based on this, artists are recommended that could be of interest to you, but you can manage everything to your liking:

Save a disc before its release

When a new album is released, weeks before said release, Apple Music or Spotify they let you pre-save said disk. So, when the launch day arrives, you can listen to it directly on your profile in the application. YouTube Music also incorporates this option, so that you can pre-save that disc before it is released. Although this option depends on the disc, artist or record company, so it will not always be available.

When you have saved a disc before its release, as songs are released from it, you can listen to them from your profile. You will be able to see in the profile of the disc that songs are being released or unblocked, so that you can listen to them whenever you want. To save an album to YouTube Music, you just have to search for album name or artist and enter it, where you will get the option to save.

  1. Open the app on your phone.
  2. Tap on your profile picture.
