Ever had a song stuck in your head, but you couldn't remember the name or artist? Well, YouTube is here to help. The video-sharing platform is testing a new feature that lets users search for songs by humming them.
The new song search feature is currently being tested with a small group of users in the United States, but it could be rolled out to everyone in the coming weeks or months.
To use the feature, open the YouTube app on your Android device and tap on the microphone icon in the search bar. Start humming the song you're looking for.
YouTube will listen to your humming and try to identify the song. If it's successful, it will show you a list of results, including the official music video, user-generated content, and Shorts featuring the song.
The new song search feature is powered by Google's machine learning technology, which can identify songs even if you're not humming perfectly.
The feature also works with both English and non-English songs. In fact, YouTube says that it can identify songs in over 100 languages.
In addition to being able to identify songs that are already playing, the new song search feature can also be used to find songs that are similar to the one you're humming.
This can be helpful if you know the melody of a song, but you don't know the name or artist.
The new song search feature is a fun and innovative way to find songs. It's also a helpful tool for people who are hard of hearing or who have difficulty remembering song titles.
